Yazzy, where art thou?
Bwah! I'm here! And that was just dumb, but it sounded amusing when I was thinking it.
I will never abandon this blog. I've been experimenting with the free ones out there, but as long as I own my own my domain there really is no point. I've had blackglass.org since July 1999 and I plan on keeping that ownership till domains no longer exist. So, why the absence?
- Cousin came to visit in July, and I turned into a bona fide tourguide of San Antonio. I think I might have come down with heat stroke on one or two occasions too. It's currently still incredibly hot here. What is it, 18 days of 100 degree weather? For some reason the anchor on GMA loves to focus in on Dallas instead of us. Yes, apparently the Alamo city can handle the extreme humidity and 100 degree weather better than poor Dallas. In the meantime my old hometown of El Paso is flooding, and we're as dry as a desert.
- Also in July I took off a week for Irapuato, Mexico to celebrate my parents 30th wedding anniversary, which I helped plan with my aunt and grandmother. It turned out really nice, and damn it they made me sing Schubert's Ave Maria. Now I've been requested for a cousin's wedding in November, but I don't know if I'm going, and that song needs to die!
- The bar has been postponed yet again for February. Mental note: file those dreaded papers by the end of this month. I felt bad about waiting, but then I started reading people's reactions to the MBE, and given how busy I was in July it was just a good call. Can't someone just give me a license? Ugh.
