Another long time between posts
Apr. 18th, 2024 10:43 amI've been thinking that I want to have a journal again. Even if no one reads it, which, I expect no one will read this. I'm even making it public because I doubt it even matters.
(while we're on the topic: if you still use this site, either LJ or DW, please comment and let me know? I'm curious).
Anyway. I'm probably going to revive this, and I see that the last entry was in 2015, nearly a decade ago, a few days after my wedding. So I'll go over some life changes:
I've been wanting a place I can write about things. It might be rants about things that will tick people off, it might be talking about projects I'm working on (software, hardware, games), it might be just organizing my thoughts. But I need a place I can write things down. I miss the times when there was a community here but even without an audience I think this has a place in my life. So here goes.

Anyway. I'm probably going to revive this, and I see that the last entry was in 2015, nearly a decade ago, a few days after my wedding. So I'll go over some life changes:
- I got married on Sept. 26th 2015, then separated on June 3rd 2018, then divorced Dec. 8th 2018. So it goes.
- I bought a new house, in June 2020! Then I bought another new house in April 2023 and sold that one.
- I got a new job in 2016, then in 2018 that company was acquired. Stuck it out for a year and then got another new job in early 2019, where I still (happily) work.
- The world ended in spring of 2020, but that's a major life event as much for everyone else as me, so everyone already knows about it.
- I started seeing my new girlfriend, Megan, in October 2021, and we're still together (and living in the new house).
- Three new cats joined, two cats left: Cheeto was adopted in 2017 and Keanu was found as a stray the same year. Leeroy ran away, and Cassie took Robert when she left. Megan brought Kai with her.
- I bought a new car and a new bike: 2016 Indian Scout and 2019 Ford Mustang. Neither one's really "new" any more though.
- The board game collection has both grown and shrunk, the friend circle has done the same. I have some new hobbies and have progressed further into others.
