Random observations

1. Having two college students at home for the holidays (unless graduate school happens, this is the only year this will happen at the Hammock household) means there’s an extra week (or in our case, two) of vacation for some people (kids), but not other people (parents). My son (who will be called Knight from this point forward) and daughter (who will be called Ann-Parker from this point forward) are both working, however, so they’d argue with the label “vacation” as in holiday.

2. I’m two sessions into a four session commitment (to Ann-Parker) to attend hot yoga with her. It has made me discover two things: A. I have absolutely no balance — I’m amazed I can ride a bike as I find it difficult even to stand on one lege. B. Hot yoga is not mentioned in the works of Dante, but its certainly a ring of hell. My third session is tonight. I must admit, the second session was better than the first. Developing.

3. I am writing a rather detailed post explaining my 2010 ‘blogging” strategy (a first) that includes making this blog my personal blog, while focusing on professional stuff on RexBlog and Hammock.com.
