penny for a thought | Patrick on every & anything

Psych! Just playing, I wasn’t sick, though, suffering from an illness was the firs thing to pop into my head to excuse my blogging hiatus. I bet those of you (D echo, Mom & Dad, Hess, MT and that weirdo in Eastern Washington who keeps offering me a job on his Pony farm) that complained about my disappearance from the blogosphereo would’ve felt really bad if I said, “sorry, it’s hard to type when you’ve lost both hands to Leprosy.” Nevertheless, I’m back and if being too busy having fun is a crime, then lock me in solitary confinement, because that’s my only excuse… Get over it

Anyhow, I am pretty sure a lot has happened in the past month. Here’s my mediocre attempt to recap:

• I’m 24 years old now… Yes, another pointless age. At least I’m now just one year away from lower car insurance, right?
• I started racing my bicycle again and it feels good to go fast. Now if I could just get in shape.
• I’ve eaten roughly 10 Belgian waffles since my last blog… Thanks Aunt Judy, everyone loves my “Holiday Inn-like” waffle maker.
• I now commute to work on a skate board and have crashed twice. No injuries, just a lot of embarrassment.
• Jay won the Portland Beer Mile last night. Honorable mention goes to 3rd-place finisher, D echo, for having the best outfit, courtesy of yours truly. Jay drank 4 Budweisers and ran 1 mile in just 6.22… Amazing!

Alright, that’s probably enough egomaniacism (I know, I know, that’s not a real word) for one day. After all, I’d hat t lose my 10 regular readers on my first entry back. Cheers!
