It’s December … and Christmas Is Coming

Christmas Hat

Merry Christmas! I needed to go to Idaho Falls to my office there today. Nina wanted to go to Idaho Falls a do a couple of sessions at the Temple today. So, we met each other for the 11 a.m. session, had lunch together afterwards, and then she headed back to Pocatello and I went into the office to sign Christmas cards and meet with some of the people there.

On the way home I stopped at Barnes and Noble to see if they had a book I wanted (they did … and two others besides). Because of the season, I wore one of my Christmas ties and put on my Christmas Elf hat. That resulted in some fun at Barnes and Noble. I made a Seesmic video blog about it: http://seesmic.com/DScxRDS8f1 so I could preserve it for posterity. ‘Tis the Season To Be Jolly!

Social Networks

The “new thing” on the Internet is sometimes called Web 2.0 and generally called “social networks”. So I decided to make a list of the social networks where I have an account:

  • Twitter (rolandksmith)
  • Facebook (rolandksmith)
  • Second Life (Roland Schism)
  • Skype (rsmithwork)
  • AOL (rksmithlisi)
  • Yahoo (rolandksmith)
  • Seesmic (rolandksmith)
  • Flickr (rolandksmith)

There might be more! I’ll have to write about what I use each of these services for. Some are more useful than others … but that always seems to be the case … particularly when I’m trying to be social!

Snow??

Well, that certainly wasn’t in today’s forecast. Nothing sticking, but it’s time to dig the snow blower out and get it running and put the lawnmower away. I guess because it’s December 1st (rabbit rabbit) and it’s snowing, winter is arriving. Dang.
