I posted my first blog entry 4 years ago today. You'd think I would have learned something by now. Not so much, I guess. Last year I posted my 100th entry, announcing that would be it until after the election, then I thought of something that amused me so I squeezed one more in. I haven't blogged since. I missed Christmas, New Years, Mardi Gras and Easter. Oh well, you can't go back.
I had an excuse (not a good one, but "HEY.") Then over the last few weeks I thought of several good topics, and promptly forgot them all. I can't even remember what I was going to write when I started this. Gettin' old sucks. (But I've always heard that it beats the alternative.)
So, as I pointed out, this is my 102nd blog post. When I started working on it at 1:19 AM on 3/20/2016 I read back to the start of my retirement countdown and realized that I had been retired for 399 days 21 minutes and 12 seconds. I decided then that I should post on the 400th day. Then I forgot about it until 11:56 AM 4/21/2016. So much for that.
I have been retired for 437 days 15 hours 47 minutes and 02 seconds. More than that now. I guess it will just keep getting bigger. And when this posts, at 6:38 PM, I will be starting my 7th decade on the planet. But using the "50 is the new 30" logic from my first blog I'm only 35.4.
I got nothin' else, at least nothin' I can get posted before 6:38. Maybe I can get back in the swing. Oh, well, until then get off my lawn.
