Fun Current Events Game

So the amateur hour is about to begin, and while it’s annoying and terrible and disgusting, I would be lying if I said I don’t miss late nights at Bull McCabe’s and closing down the place with what felt like the whole goddamn town there belting this out.

Downtown Kalamazoo in Winter

gee

I took this picture Friday night when I was walking around downtown. I may complain about the cold, but they do make the place look nice.

Anti-social Media

Posted on January 3, 2015

gee

One of the things that I was hoping to accomplish with the new blog seems somewhat counter intuitive: I want to use it to disengage a little from social media. It’s probably messed up logic, but in looking at setting this all up and trying to figure out where I want to post and interact, I realized that probably 90% of the content I see on facebook is shit that I have zero interest in. Sure, a lot of the links that show up in my feed are entertaining, but there’s a difference between being entertained and being engaged.
So I tweaked out my facebook settings a bit so that when someone wants to interact with me I get a notification, otherwise, I pretty much have no reason to log in to them at all.

New Year's Resolutions

Posted on January 2, 2015

gee

So many times, a list of New Year’s resolutions go through things that people want to do to make themselves better. I’ve done that in the past, but this year, I’m going to try to set legitimate tangible goals and see what happens:

1) Read a book a week.
2) Go to at least one moped rally.
3) Post to the blog three times a week.
4) Find (or create) a boardgame group and play a game a week.
5) Explore more of Kalamazoo, trying a new restaurant or bar every two weeks.
