It’s so nice to live in this bubble of the universe

For the most part life is great right now. The only things bringing me down is being sick and also my main computer system isn’t working. The big picture, however is brilliant, radiant and has a high contrast ratio.

The last time I blogged I briefly mentioned that I was looking for somewhere else to live. Since then I have moved, to the south side of Edmonton, just minutes from where I work. Living close to work is truly a luxury. It means having one more hour to do what I want, not having to use that time driving. It means being able to go home for lunch. It means saving money on gas and getting a little more exercise from walking or riding to work. It means fluidity, if that makes sense. The place itself is a semi-detached townhouse (joined on one side), with four bedroom plus den, fireplace, dishwasher, fenced back yard, high vaulted ceilings, and a big park out back. Another plus is that my friend Allan who I grew up with is my roommate, and we share a number of interests like electronics, gadgetry, and science in general.

I don’t usually talk about relationships on the blogo-net, but I have met someone pretty awesome and things are going famously.

My apologies to everyone who has been checking back here every day with nary an update. I always say that I’ll keep this thing up to date but it never seems to come to fruition. It’s fun to blog, the hardest part is getting started. I always feel I have nothing to write about until I force myself to click the ‘write post’ button.

Another thing to note is that the comment spam that I have been getting lately isn’t too traditional. Thing like office furniture rental and band lyrics sites… Still the largest fraction is for drugs of which I have no idea what they are.
