Something New

So I decided to take this writing class online and today was the first lesson. What am I hoping to accomplish? Not sure yet, just sounded right. I like to write, obviously or I would not have started a blog. I love to read and would like to be able to write even an article that just grabs reader's attention.
Actually this blog is part of the process, of writing something every day just for the sake of writing. It might not always make sense, but at least I tried. Samson (my dog) just agreed with me as he nudged my elbow with his nose looking for some petting.
But it is later than I thought and still have things to accomplish, such is life.

Jimmy Buffet

We went and saw Jimmy Buffet at DTE Theater last Thursday. It was our first Jimmy Buffet concert experience. I am glad we spent the money and went as it was one of the most enjoyable concerts I have ever seen.
We did the shuttle service with the hotel we stayed at and let me tell you that it was worth every penny. We were able to walk to our shuttle van beyond the gate as car after car lined up at the exit. I was able to get some great pictures during the show and we drank and danced and had a great time. My only problem is I am short (under 5'), so half the time I am searching for a hole in crowd to see the stage. I was fortunate enough at this concert to have one 90% of the time.
So in the end, if anyone is thinking of going to see a Buffet concert, do it. He sounds great and puts on a heck of a show.

Starting Up

So I have started a blog, but do I have anything to say? It seems that I do run into writers block when I am staring at a blank screen. I guess I will start off about me, I just found out today that my hours at work are cut down, bummer. At the same time I am still glad to have a job as so many people in my area are without. I have no kids, nothing against them, just not for me. I am in my mid-late 30's and married, we just wed in June.
We have a large dog and two cats to keep us busy. The profile picture is of Raiju, a wonderful cat I had for almost 10 years until she succumbed to kidney failure two years ago. She was one of the most unique animals I have ever had, a truly one of a kind personality. I still miss her and like to keep her memory alive by using her name.
I guess that is it for now. Until later.
