Is it November already?

Have you ever had a strong desire to blog (or write anything, for that matter) only to lack anything that you really want to say? Such is the dilemma I'm faced with at the moment. Fortunately, I'm a trooper and I shall continue on...

Since I last wrote, I have gotten engaged. Okay, so that's old news to you, I'm sure—I really need to blog more often—but I figure I should mention it here as a matter of public record. The wedding planning has been cruising along, so much so that there are a scant few items left to be addressed. Thanks to Stacey for making that happen, because if it were up to me nothing would be done I'm sure. :-)

Let's see, what else is going on? Well, the sneak preview of the upcoming season of 24 came out a few weeks ago, and I'm intrigued, as usual. Too bad there are two and a half months until it begins! Speaking of TV shows, the new season of The Office has begun and I have to say I've been underwhelmed so far. Season 3 has had it's moments, yet the writing hasn't been as sharp as previous seasons. I think the problem is Jim's absence from the Scranton branch, which has created a void that has yet to be filled. We all know that he will eventually return to Scranton, so it's just a matter of when—hopefully sooner rather than later!

Stacey bought a new laptop from Dell last week, thanks to a generous 30% off deal they were running. Her new computer is decked out with the latest and the greatest, and now that she's finally managed to snatch it from my clutches she is able to enjoy it. :-)

After getting blown out of the gym last week, my rec league basketball team came on strong yesterday and won big. It was a lot of fun and I think I played well for the most part, but man I am out of shape. By the time I got out of the game after playing my longest stretch I think I could have been beaten down the court by a peg-legged pirate minus the peg leg.

That's all for now. Sorry to disappoint those of you expecting an interesting and/or well-written post! Take care.
