Greetings world!  I am back and at least 47% more motivated than before! A lot has changed over the past several months and I want to provide some updates for you.

Work Related Updates

I am working in a different part of campus this year due to some staffing issues. At first, I was absolutely dreading the change because it was change. It turns out that I may harbor positive feelings towards it. I supervise three graduate assistants as opposed to my two from last year and I must say that I am impressed with the work that they have completed and I am looking forward to what they can do in the future. I have said more nice things about them to them than I have given positive feedback in at least 1,200 years.

Life Related Updates

As a part of my “terms of surrender” for moving to another area of campus I negotiated for a much larger and more comfy couch. It has increased my happiness significantly as my previous couch was seriously suspect. I have recently been going to the gym a lot more because I found a partner that constantly bugs me about it enough to force me to go. The worst part? I sort of like it. I listen to audio books to make the grind bearable and so far, it has worked.

Where do I go from here? 

Well, I sort of want to watch the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer but that is not important right now. What do I want to do? I want to tell stories about the things I am doing, have done, or plan to do. I want to find more technology to share with the world. I want to brighten your day with my sarcasm or just a fun story about that one time I thought a student was calling me “Fatman.” I want to tell you about why I like chai tea lattes and not americanos. Let’s be honest – I don’t have a plan, but I planned to not have a plan so I get to be my INTP/INTJ self regardless!
