I guess I'm making a blog again?

So my old site sat there gathering digital dust for a couple of years before I finally admitted it was dead.

I used to have a real one, where the thoughts in my head had somewhere to go other than a dozen crappy unfinished projects. One of those posts got written on a whim and it ended up helping me get my job at LM. Turns out putting your thoughts out in the open pays off every so often, even the unpolished ones.

Then life must have happened. I got busy, the day job took over, the server needed an update I didn't feel like debugging, and I promised myself I'd write next weekend. Suddenly it had been years and the automated domain renewal notice was the only email I got about the site. I stopped being a writer and started being a server administrator for a ghost town.

But lately my brain has been a bit too crowded. I'm starting up a few personal projects again and when I have that many ideas bouncing around in my head I need a home base. Somewhere to put things that isn't just a notepad file on a desktop I'll inevitably delete during a cleanup.

So here I am! It's a place to talk about what I'm building and the code and the mistakes (there will be a LOT of those) and whatever else is occupying my mind.

Let's see if this one sticks.
