This Freaking RSS Feed Stuff…

Posted on August 26, 2008. Written by Glenn Vance.

rss-icon1Everyone,
I’ve decided to leave the protective arms of Feedburner behind for RSS and email feeds. They broken my feeds (for both this site and tellyouwhatithink.com) over and over and wouldn’t couldn’t let me send out the last post that I’d put on tellyouwhatithink.com letting everyone know that I was moving the blog to glennvance.com for some stupid reason. Enough is enough! I’m hosting the feeds from now on myself. I’ve always prided myself on self reliance. Who needs a Google-run company to do it for you when you can do it yourself?

I’m going to do away with the email feed for awhile. I can’t get the plugin that runs it to work. Sorry.

So, if you’re reading this, and you subscribed at some time to my website’s feed, please point your eyes to the new feed in the upper right of the grey bar at the top of the screen. Thank you.

A Very Big Week

Posted on August 25, 2008. Written by Glenn Vance.

Man, I haven’t written on here in about a month I think. A lot has happened since I last wrote any posts. What has happened? I lost my job. Got let go.

And looking for work hasn’t been terrible. I’ve had quite a few nibbles on the resume, had an interview, working the emails and the phone. Something will happen soon, I can feel it. Then I won’t be Mr. Mom anymore.

But that’s not what this post is all about. It’s going to be a very big week around here. In no particular order -

  1. Noah starts kindergarten. Monday August 25th, 2008. Today. Ms. Owen is his teacher. Is daddy nervous? Oh lord yes. He will be a Seahawk, as the picture to the right shows. That’s the school mascot.
  2. Peyton starts mother’s day out. Is daddy nervous about this? Nah, not as much. It’s mother’s day out, not kindergarten. Minor league stuff.
  3. I am finally starting the long march to the Master’s degree this week out at UTA. Colonial America to 1763 will be the first class. I couldn’t be more excited and nervous at the same time. It’s going to completely rock.

So that’s life right now. I miss writing here. Gotta finish up that Operation Downfall series. How will it end? Who knows.My bet? The Americans win. I’ve got a shiny penny riding on the outcome, believe me.
