Hi kids.
Sorry it's been so long.
See, here's what happened. My computer was dying a slow, painful death. It would restart every 45 minutes of its own accord, and there was no telling what was causing the ruckus.
My dad has a penchant for downloading programs from untrustworthy sources. By untrustworthy, I mean people who make programs that are designed to help you trade stocks and stuff on the internet. Using astrology, sometimes. My dad's a weird guy.
Anyhow, I now sit here typing on the computer my dad got from my much more computer savvy uncle, who had an extra HP Pentium 4 Windows XP system just kind of lying around. Because of his kindness, I no longer need to worry about my computer randomly having little seizures.
Work has been keeping me pretty busy lately. I haven't had a lot of time to myself. When I have, that time has been spent in the company of close friends. Close friends with very good luck, sometimes.
Life outside of work is good when I have a life. But I miss just sitting around and reading a book. I miss being able to get to the gym every day. I need to find ways to get the things that I want to do to be compatible with the things that now, by virtue of my new situation, I need to do.
Somehow, I'll figure it all out.
