July 2001


Well, I decided it was time to update my geek code. So here it is:

Welcome to the Monkey House
It’s a great book.

Anyways, the new blog is up at it’s at:

http://www.violentserenity.net/newblog

Shocking URL, eh?

I’m going to be moving this to a new location soon. Don’t fret. You can still read all my old silly ramblings.

Well, this marks a series of new beginnings.

It is the beginning of a new year for myself, almost a 1/3 of the way through my life (hopefully not more). It is the beginning of a new career for me; what I do is basically the same, but whom I work for is now different. I’m at a much larger firm now (doing ~150x more business than my old one), so the job security thing is good. But I do miss having windows, a door and walls that go all the way to the ceilings. Although the working area in my cube is larger than when I was over at AppSig, I miss having an office. But having some of my former co-workers here has made the transition fairly easy. Now if only I had something to do…

Oh! It’s also the beginning of my new blog. Yep. My first official post using GreyMatter. Hopefully things will run smoothly and nothing breaks. Hopefully :)

This also marks the birth of the new page design. I will add more pages when I feel inspired. But for now, just bear with me.

Here’s looking at you, kid.

Things to Come
Ok, now that my life has settled down a little, it’s time for a small update.

This will be the second to last post on this blog. I think it’s finally time to retire it. But I have made another one which I will post shortly. The main reason for the new blog is that I will stop using Blogger and use Greymatter instead. I decided to make this change because of the added flexability and freedom that Greymatter provides me. It’s not up yet, but I will post a link to it here when I finish it. Hopefully it will look better than this drab grey page.
