Movin' right along...

My boy Zazzles and I

There are periods of time where (just like everyone else) I just do not have a lot going on... I drive to and from work, make dinner and sit my butt down on the couch and watch something on Netflix or play a computer game while listening to Pandora.  My cat, Zazzles (yes... my son named him after one of the cats from the Big Bang Theory episode) usually enjoys these down periods because it gives him ample opportunity to make me crazy.

So while I may lament the possible boredom of sitting in my apartment watching/listening to a ballgame, these times also serve an important purpose... it gives me a chance to organize my schedule.

There is SO much to do in this city.  So many sights to see, groups to join, events to attend.  There is a wonderful web site called meetups.com that has a group for almost any interest (or you can create one). The point being, that one should take a couple of days off to plan... and plan you must.  There will always be times when you decide on something on the spur of the moment, but it helps to populate your Google calendar if for no other reason than to list out all of things going on.

P.S., not everything costs money... Miller Outdoor Theater events are free and fantastic.  Book 'em..
