Happy Birthday, Brig!

Not sure why I didn’t think to get this up a little earlier…

Happy Birthday, Brigham!

I’m assuming there will be a raving party of Guitar Hero at your place tonight, Yes?

24. 36. It Doesn’t Matter.

Filed under: Dating, Day in the Life of..., Musing and Writing Projects — donosmond @ 3:23 pm

I’ve often heard it said, “I wish I had another 12 hours a day for…”

I’m starting to realize that it doesn’t matter whether or not we have a 24- or 36-hour day – we’ll all still cram our days full of drama. This may account for my epiphany I had earlier today.

It is time to scrape off the barnacles of life and swim more freely. (Just thought I’d make that publicly known.)

Where Have All The Blog Links Gone?

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — donosmond @ 5:05 pm

I changed my URL about a month ago hoping to make it easier for people to find my blog. To make sure everyone new where to find my blog, I created a forwarding page. In addition to the forwarding page, I also sent out an e-mail letting everyone know about the change.

Unfortunately, I’ve been getting e-mails asking me if I deleted my blog. Nope – still here!

So, the following links are to blogs and websites that at one time or another were linked to mine. This is a shout out…

Please take a minute to refresh your links to my blog – pretty please. (How’s that for being shameless?)

To the reader: If you happen to be perusing these site, I suppose you could let them know a certain link is down… (wink, wink) –Now that’s really shameless.

Bobsled Track Reopens!

Filed under: Musing and Writing Projects — donosmond @ 2:40 pm

Due to a freak snow storm in the middle of April, the Utah Olympic Park decided to reopen its bobsled track for an additional week of training.

OK, I wish! But could someone please tell me what is up with snow in the middle of April; not that I’m complaining about the “moisture”. Heaven knows we all pray for that sometimes. :) However, would rain not be able to accomplish the same task?

All I ask is that UDOT doesn’t get their salt truck out!

Come on people! If we start acting like it’s summertime, don’t you think Mother Nature will follow suit?

PS. April Fools! Who says you can’t tell jokes on days other than April 1?

I Hope To Not Be Disappointed…

Filed under: Uncategorized — donosmond @ 1:13 pm

So what is it about an action film that gets me so intrigued? Not to mention the fact that it included Jackie Chan and Jet Li.

The irony of this post immediately following my post about violence on TV is too funny.

My Babysitter — The TV!

Filed under: Musing and Writing Projects — donosmond @ 4:10 pm

I received an e-mail from a friend of mine earlier today regarding a “TV Turn-off Week”. At first glance, I thought it was a bit of a joke considering their Web site’s lack of professionalism. However, as I took a closer look I realized this was legit. There is actually an organization that is trying to combat the television pandemic.

Though I personally don’t agree with the blanket statements they claim, I do have to admire them for creating an awareness of the effects of television and video games.

Take a look into what they are saying – What do you think about this?

April Showers…

Filed under: Musing and Writing Projects — donosmond @ 2:53 pm

Since when did the phrase, ‘April Showers’ refer to snow? I’m just curious, because as I look out my office window I’m seeing snow.

Now, I’m not complaining; this is currently cleaning my car. However if this does continue, I may consider moving to Mexico… hmmm… OK, maybe just Arizona.

I was always taught that “there is a time and a season for all things.” The snow had it’s time from December to February; now it’s just getting selfish.

Cue the Sun!
