Missing Months

Tom — Sat, 08 May 2010 03:51:03 +0000

I’m am so annoyed that I went a month without posting. In the history of my blog I’ve never done that. I’m tempted to backdate a fake post so I don’t tarnish my perfect record–but then that would, indeed, be tarnish.

Why does this bother me so much? Hippocleides Doesn’t Care is something that I’ve spent hundreds of hours of my free time working on. It’s my buddy. This blog is my friend. And I feel like I let him down.

In today’s world almost everyone has abandoned their LiveJournals and blogs for FaceBook. And I must admit that I am far more active on FaceBook than I am at www.teebiss.com

FaceBook is good for quick little blurbs like “TGIF!” and “Just ate a banana” and “What should I do?” And my blog has been where I expound on my thoughts.

This website is also my de facto digital photo repository. Yet another sore spot for me–I’ve been posting my albums here, but little pics here and there on FaceBook.

Why can’t I happily use both? Hippocleides is where my heart lies.

I’ve been somewhat burnt out on social networking lately. FaceBook and Twitter just aren’t doing it for me. I feel like I need to return to my roots.

More to come…

It finally happened

I missed a month. I went the whole month of April without updating my blog. This hasn’t happened in over six years.

So what does that mean? It is a mystery.

Early Spring

70+ degrees every day for the last week here in NorCal. I’m a little worried about our drought situation.

It’s been said that snowfall was normal this winter. However, our reservoirs are still rather low.

It feels a bit early for the weather to be so warm and the rain to stop. I’m worried about the pending trout season. I’ll just have to get out early, and often this season.

Is it Spring yet?

I never thought I’d say this but… I’m sick of the rain.

I’m ready for summer already. I miss the high Sierras.

A new year and a new image

See that new image? That’s the upper part of my head at Glacier Point in Yosemite. I took that picture of myself, by myself. I’m actually quite good at doing that. Most of the pictures of myself on teebiss.com were taken by me!

Happy New Year 2009-2010

I had a great year! I hope 2010 brings more of the same!

More camping, more fly fishing, more good times, more friends, more fun =)

Merry 2009 Xmas

In six years of teebiss.com I’ve never missed a month. So here’s my post for the month of December.

Happy Holidays!

What next?

I really need to think of something else to do with this website. What do I do with it? I hate to just abandon it, but that’s pretty much what I’ve done. Hmmm. Hmmm hmmm hmmm. A conundrum, it is.

Too happy

Tom — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 05:34:29 +0000

I can’t think of anything to write about any more. Life is too good. Life is really, really, really good. I’m blessed. And when life is this easy and I’m this happy I can’t think of anything to complain about, which is really what blogging is about right?

I’ve pretty much moved on to FaceBook. I still like to post my photoalbums here though.

I need to think of something else to do with this website.

Trinity October 2009

Tom — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 04:41:39 +0000

Got some new pics from my annual hunting trip. As always I stayed at uncle Stanley’s cabin, affectionately known as ‘The Trinity Star’ or ‘The Compound’.

You know what to do!
