All Play and No Work Make Matt a Loopy Boy
Long weekends always throw me for a loop. Here it is, Tuesday evening, and I’m just thinking about writing for my site.

Earlier today, somebody asked me what I did this weekend. I had trouble remembering what I did on Friday because it was three nights ago. Usually, writing a “Weekend Trivial” post that details my travels around town isn’t difficult. Long weekends, psychologically, mess me up.

Weekend Trivia, the short version
So here is my weekend trivia list with all of the alcohol edited out: Kredo Hardware, Peppermint Cafe, Barnes-and-Noble, Shaker Square Market, Dewey’s Coffee, Linens’n'Things, Penny’s, The Old Angle, Batman Returns, Oktoberfest, The Old Angle, McDonald’s, Stone Oven, Phoenix Coffee on Lee.

What I find disappointing, if not depressing, is that my weekend can be summarized by the way I spent money. There were a huge number of friends and family mixed up in all of that, so I had a decent weekend and spent “quality time” with people. However, each time things involved some kind of financial transaction. Grrr.

Mixing it up
Anyhow, I’m also going to be tweaking the design of the website. I like the site, but it’s time to mix things up again. If things seem a touch broken in the next week, that’s planned. Really! I’ll let you know when you should howl that I’ve permanently wronged the place.

I seem to be on a track to “mix things up”, too. The website: changing. The house: adding some new stuffs. The face: beard-free. Don’t read too much into this, as all the “change” seems pretty superficial. Website design, drapes and facial hair do not make the man…do they?

    Per the last question… are we what we think we are, or are we what we actually do. Something I’m struggling with a bit myself. Lemme know if you figure it out.

    Hey! We miss you at work! Lisa and I are getting worried. At least I see that you had a great weekend! (it is almost the next weekend as I write this). I saw my out-of-town sister, the airshow (free because we knew a person who works at a sponsor-although we did spend $10 to upgrade to box seats ~excellent move!), and other friends and family members.

    Glad to see that you are out and about and doing well. I have just one question….do you eat at home ever? LOL!!

    Don’t forget about us! Miss you!!
