Blogging Blackout

Have I really not published anything to the blog since September? I suppose I've been quiet for all the regular reasons (busy / no time), and some others (didn't feel we had anything noteworthy to publish).

It would be pretty hard to do a 6-month plus recap, but there have been some noteworthy developments since 9/16:

• Work has been busy (search engine marketing is a good place to be in a down economy)
• I started my term as President of SEMpdx (sempdx.org) which keeps me really busy
• I got appointed to the Mayor's economic development cabinet

We haven't done much traveling together since then, but:

• Maria went to St Louis & Detroit last fall
• Maria & I went to LA to watch the Beavs beat UCLA at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena
  
• Maria has had a China/Shanghai trip or two in there as well
• We stayed a couple nights near Pacific City for Hank & Maria's birthdays this month (pics @ Flickr)
  
• We're headed to Puerta Vallerta at the end of April with Jamie & Weylan and some of Maria's old Detroit friends. Should be fun!

Keeping up with us:

Blogging is fun & all, but it's a whole side trip for me to take. Facebook, Twitter (@blizzle) & Flickr are probably the best ways to know what we're up to on a more frequent basis. (FWIW - all of those things are hooked up to Facebook - so if we're Facebook friends, you'll see updates from my Twitter & Flickr accounts.
