Blue Balls

It was painful. It’s been at least 2 years, probably more. Couldn’t find the time to commit, or take things seriously. And whenever there was a new opportunity that came up, I didn’t take advantage. Leading to the condition today.

Rusty. You can imagine how hard it is to get back into the game when you haven’t been playing for so long. Nevertheless, I continued, persisted, made things interesting.

Played again recently, but this time with blue balls.

Lots of whiffs, slices, etc. But many encouraging moments also. Great to be back out there.

Alright.

Was going through a bunch of old disks today. USB drives. Doing some cleanup, and realized life has been pretty damn awesome. Mostly, because of music, but also because of technology. Media has provided the incentive to be curious about technology. And since the late 90’s/early 00’s, motivated and inspired to research and learn.

The trip to New Jersey, to see the Fire (for like the 10th time). North, south, central areas of the state…simply travelling for concerts. The bluegrass state, for the “Initial” fests.

Golf trips, also inspired by media reviews; golfnow. Trips to the upper Midwest and southern states.

The very early days of my own computer/technology introductions…Gateway, Encarta.

Research before my favorite vacation (as a kid). The trip to Alcatraz, Oakland, Monterey, CA.

It continues to be fun.
