Future Friday

I'll be away in Sacramento for the next little while; so, my next update may not be very big on Monday.  Hopefully you'll all survive the weekend and the first day back to work on Monday without me, though.

I am trying something for the first time ever today--writing a blog post in advance and scheduling it to post for me (hopefully) today--Friday.  We'll see how this works, and if it works well, ...well, ...you may see more of this in the future.

Mental Landscapes

So today's post is coming later than usual as I contemplate moving to a 3-day posting schedule at the request of John's Aunt Mary.  There are plenty of reasons that this would be great for me--allowing me to actually get something more done every day than just the usual writing of this blog and opening up other opportunities for writing on other things besides life's wonders and geek culture.

I have to admit that I am enamored of the idea, but I'm going to give it until the end of the week before I make any final decision.  That said, the benefits of moving to a smaller number of posts per week seems an overall benefit for me--and it allows y'all  to digest the information I've posted here without feeling like you're on information overload.  That said, if I happen to find something I want to blather on about on an "off" day, you may find a few extra posts here and there.  Or I may just throw a post or two up on Twitter, Facebook, or my Tumblr account.

With that all out of the way, ...I figured we could start off with one of my favorite topics: space!
