The verdict
Spent a night thinking about it. I decided that between going on talking about nothing or starting to share personal thoughts and experiences, I'd rather say nothing. This blog's hyperextended life is at an end.

As I think about it more and more, I seem to be attracted to the idea of retiring the blog. I don't post much, and when I do, it's normally things of relatively small impact. The usual blog fodder, bikes and cameras, are being pushed to the wayside. That's not all of it. Even the health of my car, which I loved so much, is deteriorating. Schoolwork is redundant and unexciting.
This is a list of a few of the sayings of Professor James Gothard of my business law class (MGMT 455).
In BCM 175 we had a toolbox talk. We were being introduced to personal protection equipment. Essentially, it was very boring. "This is a hardhat. These are gloves. These are earplugs...." Anyway, as he started talking about respirators, I couldn't help but think of one fellow laborer and what he said this past summer.
I'd highly recommend to anyone who enjoys bicycling to give the Hoosier Hills bike tour a try. It's 100k long, so it has enough length that you can feel you've accomplished something, and there are enough hills to provide adequate challenge without being overly burdensome.
I should be running around like a chicken with its head cut off, but instead, I think I'll sulk for a bit.
When I was first learning how to shoot trap, an older gentleman got right up behind me and guided my arms as I held a shotgun and started oscillating his hips, repeating, "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing." He was demonstrating the importance of following through when going for a clay pigeon.
When I was staying with my brother in Chicago, my mom sent me a check to reimburse me for some tuition, and at the time, I had absolutely no cash on me and I needed to fix that. But the problem was I was in Chicago and nowhere near a PEFCU or IMCU, so I couldn't cash that check. But not to worry, I just handed it over to Paul and let him cash part of it, and deposit the rest in his savings account.
