Post Card on the Edge (of 500)

I don't want to be one of those bloggers who checks in once a week or less often and comes back to tell you how busy I've been to blog. When I lived in Russia my roommate used to call me the post card king because each Sunday as we would write home. I would generally turn out post cards promising a longer letter in the future. By the moniker bestowed by my roommate you can tell that the longer letters hardly ever came.

This is my 499th post and one of the reason why I have not been posting as regularly is I have been promising some big doings for #500 and I wasn't quite ready for it.

I am nearing completion of the 500 preparation and should have that post for you on the tails of this one.

After that I hope to me less post cards and more actual correspondence with my loyal readership.

Next Time: 500

In the past 24 hours . . .

I went to a fundraiser for Japan earthquake victims at my wife's school where, among other things, Amy and Spiderdroid got to play volleyball together.

AND

I helped out at a Bebo Norman/Chris August concert at our church:

AND

I went to Spiderdroid's soccer game where they tied a team that pounded them last year (giving them their only defeat of that year)

AND

I went to Puppy's (she's the one in hot pink) last ballet practice before her dress rehearsal and recital next weekend.

WHEW!

No wonder I hardly ever get time to post stuff here anymore. Running out the door to do more stuff. Be back soon. I hope!
