Edit: I’ve been posting these little daily journals to a certain forum as part of a project to keep me on track with the plan I outlined in a post a few days ago. A dear friend suggested I post them on here too, so why not? If it’s too much for you, I can look into a category filter or something. Timestamp: Tuesday, 4th October 2016 at 18:13 Reread Respawn last night, just to refamiliarize myself with what I’m doing here.

Well, the goal of writing a post a day lasted, didn’t it? Nicely done… Ah well, back on the horse today. So, how am I doing with the “new life” thing? Let’s see… I haven’t played video games since announcing the desire to quit. 3 days and counting so far, but it’s always the long game that trips me up. Have I been rising? I’d think there’s a fair argument there.

I swear I’m not a robot y’all. I just like keeping in the technical mindset as much as I can. It’s the only way to move forward - embrace the über geek! I’ve been thinking a lot these last couple weeks. We aren’t in the old days anymore where work ends at 1700 and you can go home, watch the game, have a beer or two, and just forget about things until the next morning.

Promised some dear friends I’d start writing again, so here we are. We’re into the meat of the semester now that summer’s well and truly done. Back up. Summer only just ended and I’ve already been in the thick of it. Such is grad school, I guess. Turned in one project last week, turning in another tonight, and turning in one more next week. And let’s not even talk about exams.
