Poor Neglected Blog
Reasons why my blog has been neglected...
1) Commuting takes up too much of my time. I've been reading a lot on the train which is nice and I listen to C-Span now, because I'm a nerd.
2) I live near my family now! This is the most exciting part of my move back to the east coast. I'm working on this post while watching the West Virginia game with my parents and sister.
3) I should also mention that I live near my college friends who are just great.
4) Card games. Tom and Alyson have taught me to play Skip Bo and a bunch of other card games. Skip Bo is my favorite, because I can actually win. Right now I'm slightly disturbed because I can't make sense of the name.
5) Research. More research. Then after that, more research. I should be working on my project right now, but I'm not because I value you few and faithful readers and well, I like to procrastinate.
Maybe my new year's resolution will be to create a new banner. Any suggestions?

i played Skip Bo for the first time a few weeks ago and it was great fun. I was actually observing a school social worker at the time and he was teaching the 3 middle school students in his therapy group how to play Skip Bo (he referred to it, somewhat jokingly, as "therapeutic Skip Bo" :) )

New Banner? Something seasonal perhaps?
I've never played Skip Bo. Is it like Uno?

Of course, you must remember that I have a new banner already for you sitting on my hardrive at home, but you would also have to change your blog name. And, why not? Nickel Creek has broken up anyway? ;) Sorry, that was a low blow
I may just have to post the banner for Clairebucks: The Blog, in any case.
