Last week was an interesting exercise in what happens when you’ve got too many irons in the fire. When I was first inspired to do “Fundie Week” I had a clear idea of which topics I wanted to discuss and a general idea of what I wanted to write about them. Fortunately most of it was completed. Four out of seven isn’t too shabby considering the timeframe and length of the entries. Overall, I’m happy with how it turned out.

The next time I attempt a themed week I’m going to try having 90% of it done beforehand. Last week there were a number of things working against me. I was stuck with the after-hours phone Monday through Sunday. This usually involves a nightly work session ranging between twenty minutes and several hours. Sometimes it doesn’t ring at all (something I’ve taken advantage of). Then there’s the issue of taking care of/entertaining happy-baby, or else facing the wrath of anger-baby, all while trying to keep the cats fed, the house clean, the dishes done, dinner ready, yard mowed, yard raked (lots of big trees) and continuing to wage the everlasting war against dirty laundry… all while working on my blog, keeping up with my reading and other studies and trying to find some time with the wife (when she’s off work) and attempting to get a little R&R or entertainment for myself–I’m currently half-way through Season 1 of House MD while waiting for Battlestar Galactica Season 3 to make its way to Lincoln. And we’re not even fully unpacked from moving in November! Then… there’s the planned/rumored/work-in-progress radio show.

*huff*wheeze*deep breath*

Honeybees aren’t this productive.

The rest of the stuff I had planned on writing about will have to wait. What I think I might do is space it out to coincide with each additional time the neighbors try Jesusing me, something I assure you will happen again. They will be gotten to eventually.

Anyway, time to get back to the kind of eclectic/political bitchfest native to blargen.com. Hope you enjoyed FUNDIE WEEK 2008.
