Re-entry
*gasp* *cough* *sputter*
Yes, BloggerDave™ is back. I guess it's inexcusable, the nearly four weeks of non-presence, but I must say, it's nearly impossible to think about blogging in the UP. Much easier to think about, say, logging. That one could do in a heartbeat.
But ok, that really only accounts for one of the weeks. Where did the others go?? There was quite a lot of prep to sub on a certain musical featuring the music of Earth, Wind & Fire, and then it was decided by Powers That Be that the thing would close two days before my scheduled first day, which would've been tomorrow. The closing comes as no surprise, as the plot and dialogue were pretty horrible, and the choreography seems have gotten the same criticism. Is it moderately disappointing to have put a significant amount of work into something for naught? Is it slightly unsettling to have one less potential source of income? Maybe.
Which leaves me at a crossroads... what to do, what to do. Trying to assess some options, see things clearly. It might just be a perfect time for blogging at the expense of others.
Long ago, upon returning from my two weeks in Chicago and Michigan, it was my best intent to share this photo with y'all:
Central Park is great, but C.P. ain't got no Bean! Otherwise known as Cloud Gate, a recent addition to Chicago's Millenium Park by Anish Kapoor, the Bean is easily one of the most elegant and powerful sculptures I have experienced. A full set of pics on Flickr has been posted for your viewing enjoyment.
Other imagery from the two weeks away is certain to appear shortly. As always, stay tuned...

rah! rah! dave is back!
Back in the saddle, stronger than ever, and ready to kick some ass.
that bean looks FANTASTIC. I'm going to steal some of those photos. I scooted around the bean a few times this weekend, and I like it more every time I see it.
And welcome back.
The blogsphere rejoices. We get Dave's triumphant return...and a giant metallic bean. Way to overshadow yourself.
