Cut

Becky chopped my hair off this evening. I was sick of the curls, and it was about time I did something about it.

Life is busy.

Realizing that I have had time to work for roughly 1800+ hours since I have moved to Raleigh...I haven't had time for a lot of other things. And that 1800 hours doesn't even account for time spent at home attempting to communicate with colleagues in China. Well, at least I got over there in leisure, because my next real chance of travel to China is most likely business. What is nuts about my feelings of no time is that I have basic to low responsibility by most standards. I have to pay bills, show up to work and mow the lawn...sometimes feed a cat. I dread the days when I am actually busy. Pretty much hang up the guitar, keyboard, paintbrushes, video games and little tech hobbies.

It takes me a while to change, although my life seems to be changing the most it ever has during this time. I finally am not living out of a bag, or a box of clothes on the floor.

While writing this, I have decided to start one of three, or all three of the following projects:

-document my summer travels (good thing I have pictures, because I have not written much about the trips)

-restart the podcast

-start some how-to's involving my pursuit of a good solution for serving up media in the house. So far, I have a pretty decent setup that I am mostly happy with, but it is far from perfect or fully functional.

Either way, there is going to be new stuff up here in the future...
