Monday Musings

Good Morning Dear Reader

I have decided to start a new feature on my blog called....you guessed it, Monday Musings.  Now, I don't promise a new entry every single Monday of the year.  As a matter of fact, I promise nothing beyond this entry.  What is the point of my Monday Musing?  Pretty much nothing, to be honest.  Once in a while, there may be a nugget of useful information, but more often than not it will be exactly what it suggests....musings.  Also known as mindless ramblings.

Well then, let's begin our (drum roll please)............MONDAY MUSINGS!!!!!!

For my very first official musing, I'd like to talk about my website.  Yes, I have a website.  Yes, I own my own domain name.  No, I am not creative in any way, shape or form, so my website most likely looks like poo.  But, it is mine and it is a constantly changing work in progress.  It contains an RSS feed, so you can easily keep up with the changes (Although, watching paint dry might be more exciting than waiting for me to change my site.)  It also allows comments to the individual photos.Right now, it contains a boring welcome page, and another page for my photo albums (or photo album, as it were.  There has only been one album posted to it so far).  If you're interested in seeing it, click here.  I have also just purchased the domain name www.thekokclan.ca, but as of right now, I have no idea what I'm going to do with it. 

Dear reader, remember a while ago we talked about making my blog into a book?  And remember how I asked you all for suggestions regarding the format of the book?  I must say that the response to my query was overwhelmingly under-whelming.  So, based on the feedback, I have decided what I'm going to do with it.  I have not yet decided if I'm going to publish sneak previews on here....that can be determined later.  Wish me luck as I forge ahead and try write this thing into some sort of entertaining and helpful form.

Ah, yes...the dentist.  I get to go to the dentist tonight at 8:00PM.  Yippee.  One of my fillings chipped this past weekend, and now there is a very sharp piece sticking up and gouging my cheek.  Good thing for benefits, because the dentist is going to see dollar bills when he / she looks in my mouth.

Speaking of music, I have finally got it figured out how to stream my own music from my own music library into Second Life.  It is awesome!!  My avatar can be relaxing in his house, and can listen to music that I'm playing.  What's the point, you ask?  Well, if my avatar has company at the house, his guests can also listen to the same music.  Basically I can DJ for my guests.  Which is really cool.  Next step in Second Life is to become a DJ and have some fun with that.

Oooh!!  Guess what!!  My doctor has given me permission to consume alcoholic beverages again!!  He was fairly happy with my blood sugar numbers at my last appointment.  This, of course, is terrific news!!  He did throw in a caveat....he says 'in everything....moderation'.  In my most humble opinion, moderation is better than not at all.  So I am good with that.  That means wings and beer night with Sheldon can be a real wings and real beer night....not a real wings and diet coke night.  Yay!!!!!

And that, dear reader, is the end of the first official Monday Musings.  As always, comments are welcome.  Maybe I'll even take requests.  Want me to muse on a subject?  Drop me a line and I'll ponder it.

Until next time, cheers.
