Way back before comedy became vulgar, there was a routine called good news, bad news. Basically one guy would say something and the other would respond 'that's good', then the first guy would say, 'no...such and such' and the second guy would say 'oh, that's bad'. This would repeat several times, and apparently passed for entertainment. So here goes...
"I had to start an internet blog for school."
"Oh, that's bad."
"No, not really. Turns out it's kinda fun."
"Well, that's good then.
"It was hard to think of a name and title, etc."
"That's bad..."
"But I did a good job I think."
"That's good."
"It's online for everyone to read."
"That's....bad."
"I used my name for the title."
"That's.....bad"
"Now I can't talk about work, personal things I want to keep quiet, family..."
"Crap...that's really bad...."
"No, that's good. I can talk about positive things and stuff that others might find helpful and interesting."
"BOOORING!!"
"You aren't playing the game right..."
"You could dis me on your blog."

Be careful what you ask for...
Apparently the old saying is true. Everyone was complaining that it has been unbearably hot in the Astronomy class room until today. It was 58 degrees. In the class room, not outside.

Long day...
I want to try to update this blog every day or so. It was a long day today with work and homework, so this update will be short.
We are supposed to get some wintery weather in the morning, but we'll see how that turns out. Seems like we get less and less snow/ice every year. The snow that fell Saturday was nice. I closed the bedroom door, opened the window next to the bad, and curled up and watched it snow until I fell asleep.
School is going well. I'm taking 6 classes this semester. Joy (wife) is taking 3 and will graduate at the end of the summer semester baring any unforeseen problems. She thought she would be finished this semester, but her adviser goofed up and she was 4 classes short instead of just 2.
Anywho, see ya in a day or two.

Hi. I'm Mike...
This is my first blog. I have been thinking about starting a blog for a while now and since I have finally gotten around to doing do, I guess I should introduce myself.
I am 42, married, and I have 3 children (22, 20, and 14). I have spent most of my adult life working in the computer software industry and I have recently decided to return to school. My overall goal is a PhD, but in what, I have not decided (something in the Astronomy field probably).
I have 42 years worth or stories to tell (actually 41 years worth, I just ate, slept, and pooped for the first year) So check back often for current updates and flash backs.
