What shall I talk about today?

Lately I've been uninspired to blog, but I don't know why. Maybe I have seasonal affective disorder and I'm depressed. But I don't feel depressed. Maybe I have nothing to talk about? But I do. Maybe I don't like typing? That's it!

ANYWHO, what's new in Zeke's world? Oh not much. Amber and I went skiing last weekend at Tyrol Basin and it was a blast!!! I don't know why I ever stopped going downhill skiing. Amber taught me a few things and I did alright. I hadn't gone in about 10 years. We hope to do it again real soon. I only fell once but it was a pretty sweet spill. I think I almost did a forward flip when I hit an icy patch. Amber said I looked like a cartoon character going down a hill.

Amber's G-ma is not doing so hot and only has a few days left to live so went to visit her this week and now it's just a matter of time. So all plans are on hold until we get the phone call. She has pancreatic cancer is 84 and fought a good fight! This is like the 5th time she's had cancer and this time it finally got her. Say a prayer for her family as this is the first death they have ever delt with within the family.

Man, softball season is quickly approaching! I drafted the team email for the 2009 season and will probably send it out in a week or two to see if everyone is on board. Our goal is to win 4 games or more this year. Let's keep flooding the tub in 2009! And how awesome is it that we have Trevor Hoffmann as the new closer for the Brewers? Pretty awesome. "World Series or ... oh forget it.

Old Man and I are going to the Wisconsin - Minnesota Badger Basketball game next Thursday and I'm pumped!! Got some sweet seats and it's a Big 10 game so the place will be energized. And I got some new Badger gear so I hope to break it in.

I'm this close to purchasing the new keyboard I've been needing (wanting) so finally you'll be able to hear some quality, hopefully finished recordings in 2009. I will need Mr. Camann's assistance on a few things for sure. Things like, "How do I record a song?", etc. Also, stayed tuned for a post about my keyboard collection. Buck gave me an old keyboard he had as a kid and it Rick-Rolls you! No kidding.

While I was working out last night I had this revelation of how I wanted this particular song to sound. It's funny where inspiration finds you sometimes. So when I got home I had to write everything down so I didn't forget it.

I've been working up some plans to help out the homeless shelter in 2009. I think I may stay away from trying to get a large number of people involved. That really tends to complicate things. Keep it simple and have big results. I helped serve dinner last Friday and there were only about 80 at the shelter; usually it's much more in the winter so I didn't know what was up.

I started physical therapy on my knee this week. It's no fun. Lot's of little exercises I gotta do to build up strength in my left leg. Got to get myself in shape for the 2009 running season! If that doesn't help, then I may get arthroscopic surgery to get inside my knee to see what's going on.

Alright, time for my coffee break. Stay warm out there.
