I've been kinda quiet these past few days, but that not for lack of desire or for a lack of content.  Rather, I have been intensely busy on nailing down some functionality in some software projects as well as remodeling my bedroom.  I tore out the carpet, the padding, the baseboards, the shelving on the closet walls and completely revamped the room.  I built from scratch a new shelving system (which I have yet to totally finish, but it's hard being out of town), a new entertainment center, painted the walls (including an accent wall), installed new carpet with deluxe padding, put in a new bed, and the works.

It's been a fun experience and well worth it.  I hope to be more focused on the blogging moving forward, but I also need to finish the furniture...it'll be great!
