Out of the Closet
January 9th, 2009 · 2 Comments
I’ve come out of the closet. For the Monmouth Review-Atlas, interviewing me for an article in their “People to Know” section, and my new community, I felt I had to be honest about who I really am.
Most people had it figured out anyway, or at least suspected.
Yes … I’m a nerd.
Judge me harshly if [...]

It’s been a crazy, crazy year – a see-saw of highs & lows. On a personal level …

Quit old job; started new job.
Trying to sell our current house … UGH.
Trying to find a new house that will fit us all!
And locally …

A Knight in Dragonland No Longer
October 13th, 2008 · 18 Comments
No, this post isn’t about blogging … I’m not pulling a Randall!
I haven’t been blogging as much of late because I’ve been dealing with a lot issues in my personal life. One of those “issues” is a joyous one, of course … the arrival of my fifth daughter. One of [...]

… but I really like this theme, so we’ll just go with it.
BTW, playing with my thingy was precipitated by Billy playing with BlogPeoria’s thingies. Blame the Blogfather.

Who Am I Kidding? Ads???

WidgetBucks go bye-bye now. I’ll have to give up the $2.35 I’ve made over the past 6 months, but I’m will to make that sacrifice to de-clutter my blog.

What A Day …
May 13th, 2008 · 6 Comments
Monday, May 12 …
The day starts rather unremarkably. I shave, shower, dress for work, and kiss the girls goodbye. All pretty standard so far. At work, I actually get a chance to sit down and eat some breakfast & scan the JS because my first patient cancels.
Then around 9:30 or so, it [...]

A Year Ago Today …
February 28th, 2008 · No Comments
Some evil, spineless ingrate put a threatening note on my door.
Thanks again to all those in the local blogosphere and local media (especially Michelle Teheux at the Pekin Times and Nishi Gupta at WHOI) who helped me shine a spotlight on this bottom feeder.
Hey, jerk-weed … I’m still here, and I’m still blabbin’.

Interesting A.M. Discovery
September 20th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I had an interesting experience this morning. Let me share it with you … even though I’m sure you’ll wish I hadn’t.
I went to bed early last night – around 8:30, right after putting the girls to bed. I was just tired yesterday for some reason. I awoke to my alarm around [...]

One Year Later in Dragonland
August 17th, 2007 · 12 Comments
It’s my one year blogiversary, and it’s certainly been an interesting year. A brief recap:
I began my blog anonymously, but came out in the open half way through my first year.
My first controversial stand involved rhetorically taking on Jim Mangan and Mike Noyes in the school district consolidation debate.
My commentary on the local Pekin [...]

I’m Baaaaack

In case you hadn’t noticed, I’ve been M.I.A. for the last few days. I was in New York for my niece’s wedding. Katrina Ann Weidman, my brother’s middle child, married Brandon Michael Bowman on Sunday, July 17 at beautiful Belhurst Castle on Seneca Lake. Fortunately the weather cooperated for the outdoor ceremony, [...]

One Of These Days …

… I’ll actually make it to a blogger bash.
I’m really not dissin’ you guys, I swear. I know, I know … I’ve been blogging for close to a year now, and I still have yet to attend a bash. Unfortunately I had a meeting at work that started at 5:30 and lasted until [...]

I’ve Been Tagged … I Feel So Funky
May 27th, 2007 · 1 Comment
Jeep2000, the anonymous purveyor of the new “Support your local central Illinois businesses” blog, has tagged me. Now I apparently have to tell everyone why I blog.
Here, in no particular order, is why mild-mannered Matt Weidman became the blogger A Knight in Dragonland …
1) I’m an opinionated S.O.B.
2) I enjoy talking to myself. [...]
