After a period of Neglect...

As always this update comes after a long period of neglect. I have my reasons though. I've been taking a web development course and thus all my web skills were needed for that. Also my life's finally managed to find someone to love. It was worth the wait, as she's really quite stupendous.

Since my class is now coming to an end I'll be tweaking the web site some. I've already been making some changes on the music player, which just makes it work a little better. I've added some more music to it as well. My vacation time is just around the corner, so I should have some more time for personal creativity.

If you've got some ideas for useful utility programs, interesting links, or any other inspirations just send them my way.

In the interim be sure to check out slashdot.org for the latest news that matters!

Back to School

I've started back to school again, this times a Masters from the School of Library and Information Sciences. Don't be so surprised, I have worked in a library before. Actually its the Information Science bit that I'm interested in.

I actually took note of the slis school 3 years ago when I was working on my first degree. I still can't believe its been three years since I got out of school and into that corporate cubicle job. This whole going back to school thing is to help me find a way out of that little box... at least that's what I'm hoping.

It does feel great to be a student again. It also feels good to be surrounded by people with similiar interests... and age for that matter. I feel so out of place at work sometimes... especially if I end up in a room filled with folks talking in languages I don't understand.

The preceeding has been my take on my current state of being... to be updated... you know, when ever.

Amazing

I find life quite amazing at times. I'll just be sitting around thinking about this or that, and then all of a sudden it dawns on me how incredible it is that any of us are here at all. After this sudden shock I usually stop and look at how we've altered our world. Here we are a bunch of silly little monkey's that only 150K years ago weren't even people. Now we've paved a lot of the earth, drive around in metallic beasts of burden (which belch toxic fumes), and communicate with each other through the nothingness of space by speaking into small plastic bricks.

Of course that's just a cursory glance. My mother was laughing at me the other day, because she found it odd that I was staring at my hand while I wiggled my fingers. Have you ever stopped and looked at your hands. They're rather amazing creations, with all that marvelous dexterity and all. The human face is another fascinating art piece created by nature's complexities. I just find it overwhelming at times that we're here at all... and yet here we are.

I guess this is the basis of my faith in God, time, the universe... whatever. I do think we're all guided by something. A soul which tries to guide us along a path. Kind of like the itinerary on a tour. You're suppose to go to point A by this time, and point B at that time. Now what you actually do in the process of going from point A to B... well that's just free will. Its just a kooky old place... existence.

Post Birthday

Its a week or more post birthday... and I'm still kicking! Actually I'm doing fairly well for a change. Trying to keep that positive attitude everyone keeps talking about. Its not all that easy to do, but I'm managing.

I got me some new toys last weekend! Buying things cheers me up, so now I'm quite happy. I got a DVD player with all sorts of features, including MP3 playback so now I have one CDR with ALL my Weird Al music on it! (MwaHaHa) I also got a 5 disc CD changer cause it was on the clearance rack. Actually I'm listening to CDs right now on it, random songs from all 5! How cool is that!?!

I saw Spiderman twice over the weekend. It was quite good. Willem Defoe played a great villain... a wonderfully nice lunatic. Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst did an excellent job. Of course the special effects were top notch, and they mixed it with live action enough that it all blended together nicely. Its a must see film!

I ran across an interesting weblog tonight. Its the rabbit blog. I found the author's irreverence quite refreshing. Enjoy!
