Missoula Summer is Upon Me

If you haven’t noticed, this little blog hasn’t been updated for quite some time. Another 1.5 month lapse and it is not because there is nothing to do here in Montana or write about. Quite the opposite. I just find myself a little short on time lately with work taking up more and more time (although it is not necessarily productive, I work much better from home but it’s causing problems when people don’t see me at my desk “working hard”- aka checking email 200 times/day). Blah. Anyways I have been working on my Diabetes Blog now as well which is coming together nicely. Pretty soon I will link to it and talk here about what I say over there, but I need to get it looking pretty good first. Right now it has just a generic wordpress template but pretty soon it will have some products and a better design. My idea is to educate Type 1 Diabetics (very specialized, I don’t want to talk about Type 2 even though it effects 10x more people) about which supplements are shown to mitigate the “complications” of diabetes. AKA I want to keep people alive! There just aren’t enough doctors out there telling Type 1’s to take pomegranate juice or alpha lipoic acid. I am going to hopefully reverse the trend. But enough of that.

What do you do here in Montana in the summer? Here is what I have been up to in no particular order- camping, flying my model airplane at a lake, downhill biking (which is totally insane), enjoying festivals, flying around in cool airplanes, wake boarding, crashing my model airplane into the dirt at high speeds and enjoying the 12+ hours of sunshine each day provides while firing up my BBQ. Of course there is also socializing at my favorite watering holes downtown here in Missoula, which gets a little wild in the summer. Why does everyone drink like crazed monkeys during the summer? The sunshine really gets to people’s heads.

And now I have to get to work. But not before a moment of zen:

That is my little sister and the most adorable of all of the pets our family ever had- Susie Q, the pet deer. I hope she is out there livin’ it up in the wild. Here is to you Susie.

Travis, the average lifespan of a white-tailed deer is 2-3 years. Which means Susie Q is not out there livin’ it up in the wild. No, Travis, Susie Q is dead. Utterly and completely dead. Maybe she’s frolicking in some sort of deer afterlife; I don’t know, I’m not a doctor. All I know is this: Susie day-idd.
