I've been married for 4 years and 7 months. I've self-published four books on Amazon and am working on my fifth. I can now drive, but I need to replace the middle brake light before I can take the test and get my full license (right now, I can only drive as long as someone 18+ with a full license is in the car with me). I've had my 8-string guitar for 7 years now, and have since also purchased a 9-string once I moved to America. I've been diagnosed with Generalised Anxiety Disorder in addition to Major Depressive Disorder. But it's pretty much under control. That's been me in a nutshell.
Oh yeah!? Well I got a semi-decent underpaid job!
That's mostly it...
Though it gets my learning in good - in charge of a VPS and 20-something odd websites on it as well as general IT working for a small-ish Photography Studio, with some nice clients. I'm the only Techie in there so I like to tell people I'm CTO or just Head of IT (I have zero people working underneath me). We've also recently been looking into 3D stuff so I've been modelling and texturing and animation for a few months now. All in all it's nice and varied - if underpaid - but lots to learn and I largely get left to my own devices to either cover very basic stuff or learn new shit. /endsalespitch
Otherwise, a bit older and probably less wise taking into account my casual abuse of alcohol. Like you Porter, I miss the old days, I still occasionally log onto the chat room in order to sit and talk about nothing. I believe I posted some years ago about organizing a virtual get-together - actually fuck it, I'm in a possition where I have some savings to visit some place - what the hell's everybody doing this summer?
Um... How's everybody else doing?
