Quarterly Check-up

[fauxklore]

I had some things I intended for 2010 and I think it is worth reviewing for myself how I am doing on them.

1) I got one travelogue done in mid-February, but I remain 4 behind since I took another trip since then.

2) I did make it to 10 dance classes last session. I even signed up for a 15 session package this session, though how I am actually going to manage that given how much other stuff is on my calendar is in question.

3) I've done 5 Volksmarch cemetery program walks. Which means I have 15 to go. Given that the program officially ends at the end of June, that could also be challenging. (Most special programs do, however, accept books after the official end, as long as they have patches left.)

4) I have tickets to games at 2 of the 3 major league ballparks I haven't been to yet and tentative plans for the third.

5) I remembered to use my reusable shopping bags once.

6) I haven't done anything about the other six goals I listed on 31 December.

7) I did buy a new camera. I took it to Western Canada and I really ought to download the photos one of these days.

8) I will have to write weekly, monthly, quarterly, and semi-annual reports at work this week. I am living the overexamined life.

Of course, our plans are much less ambitious than yours, but after hitting Camden Yards, the Rogers Center and Nationals Park in the last few years, we've recently made plans to hit Miller Park and Target Field this summer.

When are you going to those ballparks? I'll be at Miller Park on May 15th and, tentatively, at Target Field on August 14th.

Right now, our plans are to be in MSP around 8/19-20 (perhaps for two games), and then MIL either 8/22 or 8/24 (also visiting friends in MSP, and relatives in WI).

BTW, I forgot that we hit Wrigley a couple of years ago too. It wasn't our intention to start a national tour, but we're getting to the point that we might as well.

It wasn't really my intent to go to all of the MLB parks when I started, but I had reached a point when I'd been to several and thought it would be a fun thing to do. I find the differences in style and atmosphere between the different ballparks fascinating and it has turned out to be a lot of fun to check off a few a year.

That all sounds like pretty good progress for a first quarter. Even though the archives aren't all imported I admire the completeness of your documentation, and am looking forward to reading/rereading your travelogues.
