Finding Time for Hobbies and Friends
It has been really difficult lately to find time for my hobbies. There are days where doing one social thing ends up taking the entire night, leaving my introvert tank a bit empty. I haven’t taken many photographs and missed the entire spring. I haven’t written much, on this blog…

Catching Up With Jeff Chandler
Last night I spent around four hours catching up with Jeff Chandler on a Google Hangout that he hosted. It was casual, and others dropped in and out pushing the conversation towards different things. Jeff and I reminisced about the good old days where we used to do WordPress Weekly…
