Where's Rob?

Well, it's no secret that I haven't posted much lately.  Where have I been?

Mostly, I've been right here, but not writing.

I have several excuses.  Lack of material is the main one.  Since it had been over half a year since my last visit to Vegas, there hasn't been much to write about.

Also, I have to admit that my enthusiasm for sitting down in front of the ol' PC to hack out a blog post just ain't what it used to be.  Some of that is due to the aforementioned lack of material, but some of it is just getting a little bit tired of trying to come up with fresh and entertaining content.

But the good news is that I now have some new material that should be forthcoming.  You see I just got back from a sort-of last minute visit to Vegas on Tuesday.  I was there for a week and should be able to get a good number of posts from a mostly successful trip.

I'm sorry I didn't let you folks know I was headed to Vegas.  As I said, it was somewhat last-minute, and I planned to announce it when I got there.  In fact, I was hoping to do some blogging from there.  But I just got so busy from the get-go, then when I didn't post anything the first day or two, I just figured I'd wait until I returned.  And I had business obligations while in Vegas.

Then when I got back Tuesday night, I meant to post this right away but I was really tired and then had to spend the next two nights writing my newest Ante Up column in record time (for me).  So I finally have a chance to breathe.

So give me a few days and let's see if I can get something more interesting than this posted.  In addition to the new Vegas stories, I believe I can do a post on my last Ventura session from before I left town and I also even found a story from my Xmas Vegas trip that I can write up--at least I think so.  I've completely forgotten what it was now so I'll have to re-listen to my tapes to find it.

Man, I just noticed that I only had two posts in the month of July!  That's pathetic. I'm sure I can do better than that going forward.

So hang in there and thanks for your patience.  Stay tuned!
