And this marks post 200
December 29th, 2007 • blog
I’ve now hit post #200 on my blog, from a fury of posts in the beginning to slowly trickling updates now that my life is a bit more hectic than it was. Unlike many bloggers who learn things about themselves the more they blog — typically because it’s their first blog, this is probably my 5th — I haven’t really learned much about myself from blogging this year other than how to write better and hopefully, more clearly. My other blog about music reviews has sat stagnant for 3 months now and I plan on changing that in 2008, due in part to wanting to write more about music and the hopes that 2008 actually holds more worthy albums than this year did (by no means did most of the music I picked up this year suck, I’ve just neglected to review most of the good stuff). I did receive some demos and mail orders but in an effort to escape the doldrums of being chained to a PC for living, I’ve just stopped writing about music.
Here’s to another 200 and to more frequent posts.
Rosey Baby

Tonight we ate at Rosey Baby so Jess could indulge herself in crawdads for the first time. She loved’em and stated we’ll be going back because she likes the food and the selection is bigger than what’s at Alligator Alley (where I love the gator gumbo). Having never eaten them before she didn’t know what to do so I didn’t bother telling her how to eat them but she quickly figured it out and she “loves the buttery stuff in the head”. But she wasn’t too thrilled when I said she was indulging in brains and gills. I stated earlier today I wanted to eat something different like brains or grilled hearts so I settled for eating mushy crustacean brains.
The prices are much more reasonable than at Alligator Alley and they’ve got gator tenderloin so we may eat there more often. Tonight wasn’t the greatest night to eat there since it was game night and rather rowdy, and I’d just spent the last 2 hours changing her busted fuel filter, mostly in the dark — not fun. I was thinking of going to Shisha Cafe tonight but bailed last second because I badly need to wash this gasoline off and Jess is just tired.
