For me, it&#8217;s playing hockey, or even just shooting a puck around with my brothers. Not a day goes by that I don&#8217;t wish I were in better shape and more active so that I could still play hockey. But last night, I tried to go out and skate around, but I just couldn&#8217;t, dammit. It was mostly my too-small skates that were to blame, but when I got out on the ice, I realized that I had pretty much forgotten how to skate. I mean, I never fell or anything, but I had trouble cornering, and any ounce of skill I once had at stopping was gone. So I&#8217;ve decided to put forth a small effort to keep myself in in sightly better physical condition and to get out on the ice more than once every two years. I love hockey, and there&#8217;s no way I&#8217;m just going to sit on the sidelines and watch everyone else have all the fun. But that&#8217;s besides the point. I have something important to say.<\/p>\n<p>You know that &#8220;coming soon&#8221; business that was on the sidebar for who knows how long? It got a little sidetracked (translation: I&#8217;ve been procrastinating big time) and won&#8217;t be ready for a while to come still, so I decided to do away with it. Also, I wanted to add a link to my AudioScrobbler profile so you peoples might be able to see what I listen to (and listen to it as well. Click the &#8220;personal&#8221; button near the top to listen to the music in my library). Since I wanted it in a place where you could see it whenever, a blog post was no place for it, and there was really no other good spot on the sidebar, so it found it&#8217;s new home replacing the *coming soon*. Also, I was asked about it yesterday, and there are three articles in the works. Two about some stuff I have in my room (you&#8217;ll understand later) and the third, well, you&#8217;ll see in two weeks tops. My hint is that it&#8217;ll be the third, but not last, in it&#8217;s series of articles. Good guessing. Oh, and I was contemplating a second <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/oliver1.html\">OliverBot article<\/a>, but then I discovered how stupid the first one was, so that&#8217;s trashed. Unless I get three unique e-mails asking for it. So it&#8217;s pretty much decided, no second OliverBot article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all have those things that we would love to do more, but never get around to for some reason or another.
