well, we made it back from alaska ok, after a long flight. we've been getting settled back into a routine of sorts... i guess it's been a month since i last posted. here comes the awful truth - i haven't been interested in blogdom all that much of late. but i'll try to get back into it and post semi-regularly.
we had a good time in alaska. it was very nice to spend some extended time with my family. i am pleased to report that i was introduced to settler's of catan at long last. i loved it, and received the game as a christmas gift, so i'm going to find some people to play with here in k-town. it was a very relaxing time in alaska, lots of game playing, chatting, hanging out, going for drives to see the countryside... much needed r&r.
now i'm back to roofing. i've done some calling around to find an electrical apprenticeship, but it seems those are hard to come by this time of year. slower work time plus required ratios of electricians to apprentices equals no job for me. as april nears i'll keep trying and hopefully find something.
latest news: i'm finally actually trying to start a band. i've asked a couple people and am just waiting to find out who's in and who's not. once we have three or four people we can start to get together and work up some stuff. i really want to do this, but i'm continually plagued by self-doubt ("do i have a good enough voice?" is my main issue) ah well, suck it up brandon, and give it a run.

Glad you are back and hope the band works out well!
Everyone likes that settlers game...i'll have to get it sometime
hooray for the spread of settlers game fame! just wait until you play seafarers and knights of catan all combined with settlers. spectacular! (but too many rules to think about).
i actually did get to play both the seafarers and cities and knights expansions while i was in alaska. morgan had a friend who got the cities and knights one, and angela bought morgan the seafarers expansion for christmas. i loved the extra strategy required. it took a couple hours to set up and figure out the cities and knights expansion, but once we did it was a lot of fun. we didn't get a chance to try the two expansions together, though. i was kindof bummed about that.
glad you're back. i can now stop being disappointed when i stop by and have nothing new here!
Go for the band! Don't let your fears stop you...if you didn't think you had room to grow, you most likely wouldn't!
We loved having you here...and have only played Settlers twice with Dad since you left.
Glad to see you're blogging again!
Love you.
