I added a button on my site that records the site statistics (i.e. who visits, from where, etc). It's pretty cool and it makes me feel better about the fact that I feel like no one reads my blog but Carlos. This free piece of code lets me know in fact that more people do read my blog than just Carlos. In addition, I've been a little more proactive about getting my blog in front of more people. I joined the Chicago webring for one. And, I've added my blog address to my email signature so everytime I send an email, people are pointed to my blog. This gives me the incentive to update frequently and often whether I have anything to say or not.

A Social Life - Say It Ain't So
I'm actually going out after work today. My old boss is leaving the company and tonight is the big going away shindig. While it will be mostly people from the job I am going to stop by because I like the man and who doesn't need an excuse to drink. Especially when I don't do it that often. I've never really been into the bar scene. Probably because I was with someone for 7 years who couldn't handle more than 2 beers. Takes all the fun out of the situation. Plus I'm interested to see which of my other ex-co workers show up. If I'm really lucky I may be able to meet a friend for dinner which would be nice. Since we don't get to go out as often as he would like. Stay tuned!

A Woman that Reads
I went to the library on Monday and got several books. In addition I put a few on hold which have since come in. Luckily my dad is at home on medical disability and is able to pick them up for me. As I read them I'll offer a little synopsis. It will be like an online book club since I can't seem to make it to the once a month deal sponsored by City-Alert. Another experiment in the making!
