These are starting to get long, its almost like I should just blog smaller posts more. I have not been following it but I caught the end of the World Cup last weekend while at my parent's house for a visit. I don't understand fútbol at all. I mean I do, I get the gist, but like, they added 20 minutes because no one had scored? Then randomly added another 5 minutes? Maybe because the refs kept eating up the clock looking at injuries? Anyway, it was kind of exciting at the end, at least. In other "fun" times this…

It looks like my work trips to St Louis are going to continue for the foreseeable future, so I guess I'll need to work out some sort of fun routine there. Maybe see if there are any good music or collectible shops int he area down there for when I am down that way. Otherwise it's been a pretty standard issue week. Nothing much special happening, just the usual nonsense. Music Last Sunday was another MCCD Free concert. This one was Broken Brogue, an Irish group doing Irish music. Well, probably Irish. The lead guy said he was Irish and…

Maybe one day I will do real blog posts again. I mean, technically this is probably closer to "real blogging" than silly reviews or whatever. I actually have been feeling… more into the idea again lately, I guess. Technically the Fourth of July happened after last post, I went down to the bridge and watched the city fireworks as we often do. No fun travel food this week. I just got QDOBA and another, different Crazy Bowl dish. I did look up and found a ramen place near the office down there, but I've been working an hour earlier than…

Happy 4th of July… I guess. It's the big "250th Anniversary" but it really doesn't feel like anything here is worth celebrating. I don't have plans. I might go watch fireworks later on the bridge around the corner. It's never crowded and it's got a nice view over the lake. I tried going tot he Zoo and Children's Museum area last year but it was more crowded and the view was not great because of trees and light posts and people. I want to throw out a bit of a send off. Almost two years ago exactly, I bought this…

Oh look, slacka lackin again. It's not even been that boring, just kind of uneventful. I've also had this vague annoaynce at the idea of AI slurping up all my dumb blog posts and using that data to make more dumb blog posts for others. Maybe I should stop trying to fix my typos to screw with it. Oh geeze, it's been 3 weeks, I thought it was just two. I've got a new temporary work thing going on which should liven things up on the work front. Basically, i get to cover another office once every week or two,…
