Today I’m posting sort of a random personal post. I want to apologize for the sporadic nature of my posting. I’ve been having a hard time getting back on schedule. I like to write my posts at night right before I go to bed and set them to post the following morning. Coming in to the holidays, work gets crazy. Everybody wanted their order yesterday. Everybody seems to think that their order was supposed to be ready before Christmas. It gets really hectic. Lately, I haven’t been able to get myself to post right before bed; hence the random times of my various postings.

My girlfriend and I just purchased the game Rock Band. I’m not sure if anyone has played guitar hero but it’s very similar. You have the option to play guitar, bass, drums or even sing. The game is so much fun. It was kind of expensive to get the whole set but I’m a huge video game nerd and we splurged a little. We purchased the game the frugal way… We found it on eBay. We actually managed to purchase a copy for less money on eBay than it’s actually selling for in stores.
In Guitar Hero, you can play forever and it probably won’t ever help you get better at guitar in real life. Playing the drums in Rock Band, however, can actually teach you to become a good drummer. You’re basically going through the same motions you would in real life. It’s really cool. I think I’ve been getting a workout too. Joe would be proud of me.
I’ve re-registered for school. I’ve mentioned before that I’m working on a finance degree in school. I took one semester off to spend some time focusing on the family business. I’ve re-enrolled to get back on track starting in January. It should only take me ten more months and I’ll be done. Since I will be taking finance and investing courses, the topics of my blog may reflect this. I really want to get more in depth with investment topics so I would imagine that my blog may roll in that direction a little for a few months.
I hope people don’t mind my random rant of a post. If you do, just skip over it. I’m going to go play some more Rock Band before I go to bed.

You can play with this new toy as long as I get at least one new post a week.

I don’t know… Rock Band’s pretty addicting. One post per week will be stretching it…

I’m jealous!
My husband and I got a Wii, so we’re out. I guess we should start saving for an Xbox 360.

I’m jealous of your Wii. I’ve wanted one of those since they came out.
