So Far Behind 

For whatever reason, I've been busyish lately. Work got crazy, then I had jury duty which made work crazier, then I went to Vegas for my boy's bachelor party. I made it through it alive, and probably only gained like 10 pounds eating burgers and drinking beer. And I would have made some money in Vegas if Kansas didn't suck.

But, I'm now back a week and I still feel behind. I tend to collect a lot of media -- podcasts, stuff on my DVR, Netflix movies, books. I'm usually pretty good about working my way through stuff, but I just haven't been able to get caught up. I still think I've got 5 or 6 unheard podcasts that I'll probably get through over the next few days of work. I've got a couple of Netflix movies that I've had since January that I ended up ripping to my Mac just so I could get some new ones (really, I'll delete them when I watch them!). I'm midway through a couple of web-dev books (Perl and CSS) that I'd hoped to be done with by now.

I'm at least caught up on the DVR, which is good, since most of the shows I like are off for a little while.

Hell ... I bought the new Kaiser Chiefs CD on Wednesday and only started listening to it today (I like it so far; not sure why PopMatters and Pitchfork shit all over it).

So, if I can make it through all of this fun media in the next week or so, I'll probably finally get back in gear and do some of the stuff I've been meaning to do (new podcasts, a new website I've had mocked up for about a month now, writing more here). Which will be good, because I'm far more energized when I'm doing something productive.
