Trying to think of a more original title and it's not happening, so whatever.

Anyway, at the end of this month I will be changing jobs. I will miss a lot of things (and people) from where I am now, but hopefully everything will work out great (my only worry is that I leave where I am and really regret it - but I guess that's normal).

The good news (more of it anyway), is that I will be working much closer to where I live now. For the past year and a half, the commute to my work has taken a lot out of me. It's about at least 1.5-2 hours each way on a good day - this has essentially made my day a 12 hour adventure that really doesn't leave too much room for a lot of things. The switch will probably turn my 100-120 minute commute into a 20-30 minute one and I will be really glad for the change.

So I will have a lot more time to relax, recover from stressful events, and most importantly, start to dedicate a lot more time again to making some new things. The time away hasn't been all bad though - I think it's helped me get some better perspective and come up with some more original ideas instead of turning out variations of the same themes over and over just because I feel like I must get something out there.

I will have a few days off in between jobs which I want to use to see some of the new movies that are out (still haven't seen Spiderman or PotC), get some sun at the beach (if the weather allows), and generally just relax a little for once. After this month I should be around more - I should have a lot more time

Sorry for typos - I'll edit them later when I find them ...
