Back in Action

My new blog friend Casey has inspired me to continue to blog. So, like Michael Jordan, I've returned from my first blog retirement.

Busted out of retirement...........and can't think of anything to say! That's a first for me. So here's what's been going through my mind in the last few days:

1) Work schedule continues to be an issue- what to do? Do I want to do this or do I want to make cupcakes?
2) We sold the house in Durham- torn between relief and another reminder that Mike's really gone
3) Vacation next week. Haven't had a vacation since last July 4th. We are looking forward to it.
4) Gas prices said to be rising to $5 a gallon this summer- what gives?
5) Election! Can we be done with the primaries and get on with it?
6) My sister went to a writer's conference last weekend and I haven't been able to get in touch with her to see how it went. Call me if you read this!
7) Heroes Con 2008- I just don't know what to think. We have to go but I'm not sure at times that I'll be able to walk in the Convention Center. Lots of friends coming so I'm excited about that but then feel guilty about being excited. I will cry a lot I'm sure and just hope that I can keep it to myself and not bring everyone down. Todd had a blog entry about how he and Craig and Mike would find one thing to run into the ground at each convention. Anytime we got together with Mike, he and Matt would do that too. My fave was the year that everything was "Runnin' with tha Big Dogs". So dumb yet so incredibly funny. I miss Mike's laugh. :-)

Well, that's a lot to ponder. Back to blogging though!

I'm going to call my sister right now! You should call your siblings too and see how they are doing. And remember to be nice- it takes less energy and it makes you feel better.

Peace, OUT! (No one says that anymore)

Excellent! Glad you're posting again!

We've had a big family vacation planned for almost 2 years, and the dates ended up overlapping with Heroes. So, for the first time in 18 years or so, I'll be missing my first show. I hate to miss it, but at the same time, I'm just a little bit relieved. I would be a total wreck. I'll be there in force next year, though!

I sure do miss bitching about the Bush Administration with Mike!! We sure could get fired up on the phone!
