Weekend getaway, work, and priorities

This weekend Juan and I traveled to DC, as Colorado Rapids visited DC United.
We lost 2-1, and I have some comments about the game. Which might be worthless, as a complete football newbie...but hey, I write about so many things without any other qualification than "I had a thought".

Vélez also lost, but I didn't get to watch the game as we were still driving back - so I have less to say.
If the intersection of potential readers that care about the Pids and this blog is small, and maybe nonexistent, the one that will read my comments on an argentinian team, in English, is definitely nonexistent.

Which takes me to the next point: "why don't I promote the site?". I don't mean, promote like going on Twitter or Instagram sharing links. I mean promote like, send more links to friends.
I haven't shared links except with two people, and only a couple times each. Self promotion feels gross, and I am not sure why.
That is only one of the list of topics I amassed this weekend, which also includes thoughts on driving, teapots, the DC metro, posting pictures and privacy, and answering questions about myself.

But rather than get into any of those topics in full swing, I want to work a little extra to finish something that I've been too slow to complete, before taking a couple days off to travel again.
The biggest reason I am doing that "extra", is because I """know""" (or feel guilty about?) that I could have completed this earlier, got distracted by valid and not so valid reasons, and now I want to make sure I deliver the feature before the due date.

Which doesn't explain why I am here writing, since no one asked for an update, instead of working.
Which is why I then feel guilty, as described above :)
But still...I am here.
Was here?
Bye.
