I Blog to Remember

A little riff on the classic Eagles, Hotel California, "Some dance to remember. Some dance to forget." Well I definitely blog to remember.

This morning, I wondered as I so often do, "Where did this week go?" And then I started flipping through the stack of magazines that I am currently looking at/reading,; Bon appetit, Earth Island Journal, Discover, E, Egologist, dwell, Secular Homeschooling, New York Times Magazine, home power, Outside, The Economist, Entertainment Weekly, Wired, Scientific American, Wine Spectator, Men's Health, The Utne Reader, Bike, Surface

Then there's the books Addicted to War, The Organic Manual, Green House

I looked at last week:

Monday
Yeah!!! My Birthday, I guess.
"Surprise" Massage gift from Cindy and Skye--Kind of threw off my day in a mostly good way, except for the comment about the "tremendous amount of scar tissue in my shoulder region" I kind of knew that was coming, seeing as a few years back I tore up my shoulder in a snowboard accident. Only problem it was the other shoulder.

I know it's a lot of mundane nonsense and there is a lot of e-mailing, phone calling and then learning the best way to dress a deep finger wound since I didn't want to go to the hospital. Blogging, trying to keep up with the news, the Lakers trade deals, the Tour de France, and such and so.
