It would appear...

It seems to appear that updating my blog has become something fleeting, a goal that is just out of reach. I am at a loss to really say just why, no good excuses can be given. No maybe it is nothing more than a bout of full-blown writer's block.

That question that always lies in wait, what in the hell am I going to write?

Right now I am in the quite world of Iowa City, that is an Iowa City without its students. Lots of snow here, though some of it melted today. Doesn't seem to be a lot to do, nothing is really happening other than a few sporadic social gatherings, there is nothing.

I am waiting for more snow so that I can embark with cross country skies in hand, ready for the saddle dips and curves of Iowa "slopes" Not quite as dramatic as Chile now, but there is beauty in the plains of snow covered crops that surround Iowa City. There is serenity in the subtlety, enough to make being outside during colder weather worth it.

Christmas is a different day altogether depending on the temperature. The outside gives the phenomenon of being inside a heated house with the fam added value.

So these first few days move confusingly as I run into people I haven't seen for sometime. Tonight I am going out to a friend's place, it will be interesting to see who is there, could be fun, could not, guess I'll just have to wait and see...
