Hello, Stranger

Wow. It's been almost a year since my last entry to my blog. I've gone from Tribe.net to Facebook and have left both of them behind. Tribe just sort of faded away from my attention and, after the initial novelty wore off, I couldn't find much use for Facebook beyond playing some Scrabulous. I'd rather spend more time developing this site.

A few things have changed since my last entry: I've moved off the little rock of Saturna Island and moved to the big rock of Vancouver Island. Victoria to be precise. I've got a new job much like my old job. I spend my working days (or should that be nights) as a bread baker at Bond Bond's Bakery in downtown Victoria. The hours are almost nocturnal (shifts start at 3:30am) but the pay is better. My girlfriend Jessica and I have also moved in together into a nice little apartment across from a little park. We're slowly making it a home, with a balcony full of flowers, but neither of us is much of a decorator.

On the business front, I'm nearing completion on a redesign on my flagship site, classicreader.com, and beginning development on a new site to generate more income from my tiny dotcom. My long-range plan is to rely more on revenue from my own business and less on the day job, eventually working only part-time in the real world.
