Update 2011

Yes, I realize that the title here suggests only an annual update, which isn’t much. For those of you who have consistently been checking the blog for the past year, you might be thinking, yeah, that sounds about right. I assure you, Lindsey and I are in the process of making a better attempt to post more often. Again, yes, I realize that’s like saying we promise to try rather than just saying we’re going to do it, but it’s the best I’ve got for you.

That being said, here is the update. Lindsey and I were living in a house owned by a high school friend of hers mother. The house was empty until December when the owner moved back from California, so we found an apartment. It is a fairly large 2 bed 2 bath place with a month to month lease (the best part). We are, however, moving again next month to a house in Gold Hill, which will be our 4th move in less than a year . . . awesome.

Lindsey is still working at Del Rio doing a bit of everything but mostly social media and events. I, regretfully, have yet to find solid work. It is utterly depressing, but I send out applications and resumes every day with a positive attitude. On the plus side though, we are in the first stages of starting our own business of social media marketing.

The irony of our lack of social media usage via blog as of late coupled with this new venture is not lost on me. Regardless, we are very excited to take on this endeavor wherever it may lead. We have just one client and have only just begun to work on his web presence. Rogue BBQ is a southern Oregon catering business with a small concessions restaurant as well. For any who are interested in what we are doing for them or, more importantly, are local and interested in good BBQ, please look them up on Facebook or Twitter. Here is their website: http://www.roguebbqcatering.com/.

It has been a while, but blogging, it seems, is like riding a bike. Talk to you all again soon. Oh, and look for a “Fast 5” film review this Friday. Heck, it’s the fifth in the series. I could probably get started now without having even seen the film.


“Fast 5”
Seeing as this is only the third film in the series to include all the original cast, this feels more like a trilogy wrap-up than a fifth installment. The second and third films were more like spin-offs than Fast/Furious canon. And it is nice to see they stuck with the confusing labeling of the films. “Fast 5.” Really? That’s the best they could do? Still, the movie must be far better than the title, not hard, but a start. I would recommend though that films in general start following the lead of the “Rocky” films if only in the title department: name the first film then just add a corresponding Roman numeral to each successor. It may be simple, but at least it makes sense . . . until you abandon it to name the final chapter “Rocky Balboa” instead of “Rocky VI,” but whatever.
