First Steps

I was watching Bull Durham one day recently and Crash said that once in while he just needed to “howl at the moon”.  That is the way I feel.  The weather this winter has me feeling listless and hibernatingish (yes that is a real word).  I have had to take several “stop and breathe” beaks just to avoid going completely off the tracks.

HOWLING:

I hate (really hate) cold weather and ice.  I hate it that I can’t ride my motorcycle.  I hate it that people can’t come look at our house and buy it so we can move to Florida.  I hate having to wear lined pants just to walk the 100 feet from my car to work.  I hate it that the best time to look at the moon and the stars is when it is 5 degrees outside.  However, I do like it when our prissy dog won’t do his business cause it’s too cold outside and he wants to come back inside.  He just turns around in a little circle and stands at the door waiting to be let back in.

BREATHING better

I feel some better now, hope anyone reading this does too.

Ciao

  2. obviously like your web-site however you have to test the spelling on quite a few of your posts.
    A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I to
    find it very troublesome to inform the reality then again I’ll certainly come
    again again.

  3. Howdy, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of
    spam remarks? If so how do you protect against it,
    any plugin or anything you can recommend? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.

  4. I think what you published was actually very reasonable. However, what about this?
    suppose you composed a catchier post title?
    I ain’t suggesting your information is not solid., however what if
    you added something that grabbed people’s attention? I mean First
    Steps | The Purposeful Geek is kinda vanilla. You could glance at
    Yahoo’s front page and see how they write post titles to grab people to open the links.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to grab readers interested about
    what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little bit more interesting.

  14. I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both
    equally educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.

    The issue is an issue that too few men and women are speaking intelligently about.

    I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my hunt for something regarding this.

  19. Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that

    I must say that you’ve done a awesome job with this.
    In addition, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Internet explorer.

  22. Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!|

  27. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your blog?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 images.

    Maybe you could space it out better?
