Furniture Factor
This week, I blew out over $1200. I'd been holding off and holding off and finally got to the point where I couldn't hold off any longer. I bought furniture. Specifically, I'm now the owner of a pair of chairs with a drafting table and a nice futon on the way.
After this, I'm pretty much done with equipping my new room, except for the possibility of another bookcase and/or dresser.
That said, "Hi! It's been awhile."
It's been a really busy time with work because we've been doing all sorts of weekend testing for disaster recovery stuff and a friend recently had a wedding (more on that some other time).
Life is good, though. I'm enjoying myself, if occasionally feeling vulnerable since I haven't cleared my 90-day probation yet. Soon, though. Soon. Like mid-December... right after the holiday party and the trip to Vegas with the colleagues.
In the meantime, I'll be updating the Thanksgiving list tonight, in anticipation of going out to Vegas to visit Sarah Bear and Chris Kindred for the T-day festivities.
In other news, I'm starting to explore a few things creatively outside of work, focusing mostly on illustration and some storywriting right now, but I'm having a little trouble staying structured. It's too easy to get distracted. I don't know how others manage to stay so focused.
And I'm shopping around for a domain name again... out of pure self-interest. I'm not trying to avoid spam or anything like that. Just looking to partition out some of my interests into another namespace. Did I lose a bunch of you on that one?
That's it. Gotta go to a meeting.
