Love Me Some Warmth
I feel like blogging is getting old for me. Maybe it’s because networking sites like Facebook keep people apprised to my whereabouts so well that I don’t feel a need to write it all down. Although, not everyone in my life has Facebook so perhaps a little info about what I’m doing every now and again is necessary.
Two weeks ago I was in Florida; Coconut Point to be exact. I went to see Angela, this great girl that I met, semi-kinda online, Facebook, actually (notice how Facebook rules the word?). We both shared a mutual friend and ended up commenting on one of her status’ which led to us talking online, which led to talking on the phone, which led to Skype on a daily basis. You probably think I’m crazy, its okay I wasn’t sure if I should check myself into a padded room too. But there was something about this girl that I really liked and we connected right off the bat so I basically decided that a cross-country trip would be worth the risk. I only live once and if things didn’t work out with her then at least I got a trip to Florida out of it right? Screw it. Turns out things went really well, it wasn’t awkward and felt…natural. We stayed at a Hyatt (which was WAY nice) and didn’t do too much in terms of me being touristy in Florida, as far as I was concerned relaxing in Florida with her was all I needed. We did go to the Gulf of Mexico on Saturday, the water was cold and it was windy but it was 74 degrees. Warm+sun > cold+snow any day of the week.
We definitely don’t have the most normal relationship, being 2,400 miles away from each other is not normal, but Skype makes it bearable. At least we can see and talk to each other in real-time daily plus it really enhances when we do get to see each other. Speaking of, Ang will be in UT at the end of this month for T’s wedding. A whole 4 days. I wish it was longer, but this is how it is for now. I’m excited to show her Mormon Land. I plan on taking her Park City and maybe Bridal Veil Falls and of course Temple Square (not a complete trip to Utah if you don’t see that right?). I’m sure there will be more to report after the end of this month and hopefully some great pics too! Looking forward to party at Grand America with Ang for T’s reception!

Yeah, I don’t really blog anymore either, well, at all really, because I share cool stuff through Google Reader which gets replicated to Facebook, and I tweet about whatever I want which also gets replicated to Facebook. I check facebook maybe once a day, and Google Reader every other day or so to see what others are doing, and that’s about all I have time for really. I have thought about retiring the blog but it’s been up for 10 years and it’s fun to dig through old high school/college stuff so I’ll probably leave it up for awhile. And of course it is still technically updated with weekly Twitter digests so that historical bit is at least being recorded there.
Long live the blog!
What the fuck Rob-O?
A. Where are the nude photos you told me you took of her while she was sleeping? Will they be in the next photo posting? You know that’s really the only reason I visit your blog, the nude photos, and the fact that I do not have facebook (way too much work and you know how I feel about people in general so why do I want to stay in touch with them?).
B. By the way 70 degrees is fucking cold in the south. Therefore, if you are taking you kids to the beach you put them in the full body suit (have you never encountered a wet suit?).
C. Internet and Skype dating? What the fuck is the world coming to? Pretty soon the boobs will just pop out of the computer screen, what’s facebook got on that, huh? Actually, note to self, tell facebook about boob pop out idea.
D. And the biggest “What the fuck Rob-O”: You’re fucking taking winter time trips and not stopping by the NOLA. You do know its fucking Mardi Gras season right? You know the fucking Saints won the Super Bowl right? We could have curled up in the pile of piss on the side of Bourbon St. It would have been the best.
E. And one more “What the fuck Rob-O”: Why is there no home page tab when I’m looking through your pictures? I had to drag my cursor all the way up to the address bar and re-type in ran3.net, that is some bull shit. Look into that one.
