Snowpocalypse 2009
by Vanish on Dec.08, 2009, under Iowa, Miscellaneous
Mother Nature decided that we had it far too easy and mild in Iowa last year. She’s making up for it all in one night. As I write this we’re at around 12 inches of white crap and we’re only about 2/3rds of the way through the storm. Yayz. So much for that original 5-8 inches. Missed the mark again meteo-boys.
Thought about firing up the snowblower, but why? It’s just going to dump more snow, and tomorrow it’s gonna blow all over the place. Might as well see where things stand when the 9th plane of hell moves East and leaves us alone for a while…
The Next Evolution
by Vanish on Dec.06, 2009, under Health, Technology, Twitter, WordPress
I am about to embark on a new journey, one that will put my health at the forefront of my attention and efforts. It is simply something I must do. To help myself focus on this journey and as a means to help keep me accountable, I needed to get my blog rolling again. I have been holding off, for years now (heh) until I had the time to design a new skin for wordpress that is more personal and unique. I can’t wait forever though, so I found a skin I like and I’m going forward with it. Maybe someday I’ll have the time to recreate the Vault much as it used to be. Who knows? For now, black, translucent, and colorful gradients are indicative of things I like.
I will be linking this blog to my protected Twitter account. (@cvancleve) That account is, in turn, connected to my Daily Burn account and my RunKeeper Pro account. Coming here will let you see my progress on my journey to a healthier life aggregated from all of the places I will be tracking it. Thanks for coming along!
