In the last 60 days life has gone crazy. Work has taken up almost all of my time which happens occasionally as it’s very ‘peaks and valleys’ at the office. Between punch out and punch in we’ve had my son’s second birthday, I’ve spoke at two conventions (ironically one of them was about Web 2.0 and how important it is to blog regularly), and when possible, spending time at home with my understanding and very patient wife. I’ve lost 29 lbs (partially to dieting but probably more-so to working an insane amount of hours night and day) since September 30th, the lowest I’ve weighed since my junior year in college.
To say things have gotten busy is an understatement. Almost every personal project I have worked on or blogged about here has been put on hold, and for that I do apologize for those who regularly read here. Home theater hasn’t been used in 6 weeks let alone worked on. Crestron home automation project benched. Xbox hasn’t been turned on in almost 2 months.
Projects are getting wrapped up, deadlines are getting met, things are getting finished, and an end is in sight. I worked a 23 hour stint on Wednesday through Thanksgiving morning wiping out a ton of todo’s off my list.
I’m not sure why I’m posting this. Maybe this answers the question of why I’ve been such a recluse, both in person to the few friends and family that I keep close and to the one’s that see me online, on facebook, or across the dozen or so message boards.
