My First Post

I was inspired by some friends after reading their blogs to create a blog of my own. You think that would be fairly easy. Hah! This is my second attempt at a blog after spending two and a half hours trying to be smart on the first one. What a disaster. It seems to me that these things are most effective when they are personal and fill a void of expression that can't be filled elsewhere. While this is the void I need I guess a place to post some self-criticism.

While first things first. Most recently I accepted a job with a new company and while it is a good opportunity it also scares the crap out of me. I am a self-professed perpetual procrastinator and with the exception of one of my closest friends the laziest person I know. Case in point, I work form home and since announcing my departure from my current company have had plenty of free time on my hands (hence this blog experiment). I could have used the time to immerse myself in some readings and preparation fro my new job or on the home front continue work on the office I am building in the basement (needs to be completed before kid number 2 arrives in June). But nooooooo, I use the time to try to beat the evil conformist army of Borg invaders in Star Trek Armada II. What a loser.

Well that was a bit of a rank and quite therapeutic. I think I like this blog stuff. Anyways I am off to eat some lunch (something out of a can most likely).

Welcome aboard! I look forward to reading your blog often. I can only assume that RetroBoy is the laziest person that you know, from my own relationship with him.

Happy blogging!
