Me = failing at blogging

John Blog, creator of blogs, would be very disappointed in me. Apparently, April is national forget about your blog month. All of my 3 readers (special shoutout to my spiderman-loving college roomate for his devoted reading and commenting) have surely been saddened by my incompetence and laziness.

Since coming back from Florida last month, I've gone to Washington DC, back to Florida (St. Pete) and spent a week in California (San Francisco and Mountain View.) The trips provided a lot of interesting adventures and good food. I ate on the beach in Clearwater, Fla., had some amazing polenta in Washington DC and FINALLY had In-N-Out Burger while in California. (Twice in the week I was out there.) While the travel is tiring, the interesting new things I see always make it worth it. I especially love the opportunity to try different restaurants and local specialties.

I've also been spending time fixing up our house to try to sell it. You can track progress at: http://metrodetroitstarterhome.blogspot.com/ I mainly made the blog because I figured out that Blogger.com gets pretty good SEO and by creating this blog, if you google "starter home metro Detroit" the blog comes up as the third listing and if you search "metro Detroit starter home" it comes up second. Who knows if it will help, but it's going to be a fun little experiment.

In other news, the Tigers are finally back on track, the Pistons are doing their normal up and down playoff run and the Wings look to have a good chance to bring home the Stanley Cup. Should be an interesting spring in the D.

Sorry to all the loyal readers for not updating, let's hope I'm back on the blog bus now.
