Growing backlog

Some of you may have noticed that I haven't posted much recently - only 3 entries thus far in August compared with an average of almost one a day (or at least 3-4 a week) prior to that. There's two main reasons for that: (1) a trip I took to NYC for my cousin's wedding and for an industry conference, and (2) a talent show I organized at work that just took place. During that time, plenty of topics have been piling up in a backlog and hopefully I'll get through them all at some point. Topics include:

  • Hinduism - part 2 (the follow-up to this post)
  • Godicles (sort for God Particles, based on a conversation I had with PG in NYC)
  • Talent show reflections
  • Searching for truth - responses to questions from Mormon missionaries
  • Band of Brothers reflections
  • How do you know I love you?
  • Buddhist perspective (based on this article from ExploreFaith.org)
  • Karaoke cable car (including article from Men's Health magazine)
  • The Rock's rules for reinvention (from this article in Men's Health magazine)
  • Consumerism (visceral reactions at Costco and Bed Bath & Beyond)
  • Prayer book (idea courtesy of EGE)
  • Screwtape letter with me as the patient (based on Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis)
  • Stumbling on Happiness reflections (once I finish the book)
  • The Language of God reflections (once I finish the book)
  • Americans and Climate Change reflections (once I finish the paper)
  • Plan B 2.0 reflections (once I finish the book)
  • Bible relfections (once I get back to reading it)

So no lack of things to talk about ... just a lack of time to investigate and talk about them. I'm really enjoying this explosion of interest in such a diversity of topics. At the same time, I find myself jumping around between topics too much - getting through the first chapter of a book, for example, and then starting a new book that catches my eye. Definitely not being as efficient as I could be but that's probably ok given where I am right now.
