It's been quite a while since I've written a blog here, but I was thinking about it just the other day. For several years I wrote a daily journal which eventually turned into an online blog. The last couple years have definitely changed things for me. Although I'm still at a computer for 8-12 hours every day, those times are no longer spent at my home computer. As a full time computer programmer/web developer/server administrator, I've been working on multiple projects for my employer which keep my mind quite full with thoughts of programming and server configurations... sometimes even to the point of keeping me awake half the night and dreaming about related issues the other half of the night.
Anyway, the good news is that my pay check is helping to get me back on track... at least financially. My family and friends have seen me quite a bit less than they have in the past, this even affects my virtual connections to family and friends via the internet. I've barely had time for the websites that I used to visit on a regular basis. The long drives to work have affected my daily driver, my '85 Supra, which broke down on the drive home from work one Friday evening about a month ago. I'm hoping that soon I'll have some extra cash to get that car back on the road. Until then I'm just stuck driving my gas guzzling pick-up.
