Here's the scoop loyal viewers. I know blogs and stories have been few and far between lately but buckle down because the next 3 months may turn out to be a wasteland. I've got loads of goodies sitting in a virtual queue waiting to be written about and sadly little free time to work on them except in blips and blurbs because of work and various other activities. Now I'm taking classes to train for the CPC (Certified Professional Coder) exam in December so from now until then I'll be going bleary-eyed reading passages like, "This procedure is the endoscopic inspection of the duodenum, the ample of Vater, followed by the radiological assessment of the pancreatic duct and the bilary tree." It's a grueling, torturous, and mind-blowing 5½ hour exam that only 60% of people pass.

I have to pass to get the $1,500 reimbursed for the classes. The worst part is due to a miscommunication with my credit union, I only received a $1,000 loan. To make up the difference I had to cash a savings bond my pop-pop bought for me a few years prior to his passing away from complications related to his Alheizmer's. I can't say that I did it dry-eyed.

The good news is I do have the stockpile of material for when I do find the time for some blogging. I've got everything from toys, new cereal, to recent trips I've taken. Trust me, I haven't forgotten about the site. Even Myke has been after me to watch Are You Afraid of the Dark with him so I can finish my SNICK article. You can rest easy knowing this man plans to propose before next summer hits. I'll be setting up my Care Bears next to his collection of skulls before you know it.
