Whew…
It has been a busy month to say the least – Since the last post, HTG has been pushing like crazy to get a new server installed (which you have just visited to see this), transition all accounts, and add the most features to the application we’re developing. I say we, even though I don’t feel like I’ve been pulling my weight. Some of the early design decisions were made to use technologies I wasn’t familiar with, and because of my work work, and school, I didn’t have the time to ramp up. Now I feel like I’m picking up small tasks and needing help for those.
I don’t have a problem being served a piece of humble pie from time to time, but this is one frustration after another. I don’t know how the system works, which really bugs me. I like to know how things work, it’s a flaw of mine.
Classes start tomorrow for me (and Kelly, though she got a note from work to miss this week). Up this quarter: Operating Systems. I find it very interesting the reactions I get from non-technical people when I tell them what I’m taking. The subject doesn’t sound difficult to me, though I suppose it could sound that way to others.
A quick new year’s resolution – I want to get in shape. I don’t care about losing weight, or anything like that. I want to lower my cholesterol (it’s a bit too high…okay, a lot too high), and I want to have more energy. I want to start jogging/running, with small goals in mind – maybe a 5K to start. Then, if I enjoy it, maybe I’ll move forward to bigger goals!
Anyway, I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in weeks, so I’m going to bed EARLY tonight, and reading until I fall asleep.
