Sorry for the delay

Posted on August 8, 2008September 9, 2009 by vivin

I'm really sorry for not updating this journal for... well, seems like forever. I figured I'd start writing regularly but that turned out to not be the case. A few things got in my way. Ever since I started working at Infusionsoft, I've had less of a desire to come back home and sit at the computer... again. The reason being, that most of my code-cravings are taken care of at work. Seriously, I love it. As a result I don't really feel like coming back home and sitting in front of the computer.

The second thing was that my parents were here for a long time, and so I was spending most of my time with them. Then what else... oh yes, there was a thunderstorm and the power went out and my server decided that it didn't recognize the NIC it had recognized for the past four years. So I went and bought a new one, and as soon as I plugged it in, it recognized the old one. I love computers. Then of course, there's the fact that I was just pretty lazy. For some insane reason I decided that I wanted to upgrade the server to FreeBSD 7.0 and then I kinda just dragged my foot on setting everything else up.

Finally, there was my getting deployed again. Yeah, you read that right. I was going to Iraq... again. I pretty much found out about it around the time of my WLC training. So there was all the preparation for that. I really wasn't looking forward to going (who does, anyway?) but I figured I had to (all that duty stuff, raising my right hand, taking the oath). However a few weeks ago I found out that I really didn't have to go. As it turned out it hadn't been two years since I got back and so I had the option of not going. So I told my readiness NCO that I didn't want to go. I have my career to think of, and I think one tour in Iraq is more than enough. I was pretty torn when I had to make that decision. It took me about half a second to decide what I wanted to do. Part of me almost wanted to say "yes". But I think this is the better decision.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm alive and that I'm definitely going to try and write more frequently on this journal. I'm doing a lot of exciting things at work and I'd like to be able to write about them. So, until next time...
