You know it seems like that I have more and more things consuming my time these days. The thing in my mind is that I’m not really sure what those things are that are using up my time. Maybe it’s my desire to learn, to read and experiment with code. Certainly, I want to get even better working with data and finding solutions. And maybe it’s my desire for escapism or that I’m bored with things being the way they’ve always been.

Some of it is I find projects to do for work, and are constantly busy in the office as the Director of Data Services. There is always new data streams to capture and code. Then there is the time riding my bike to and from and spending days out in the wilderness, smoking pot and hiking and biking. The evenings have been cold, and I like hiding under my electric blanket rather then paying for the heat, watching YouTube videos and reading, always trying to learn new skills. And then I am constantly reading, and trying to learn and understand more and more of the world around me.

In many ways, my blog has taken a back seat, but also it’s because I’ve lost in interest in many things on my blog, because many of the most interesting things I’ve already covered in my blog. But a lot of it is also is just have so many things to learn and improve in my life, and I don’t always feel like spending so much time just rephrasing and redoing what I’ve already done on my blog.
