Hey guys, thanks for your patience over the past couple weeks. Work has been very busy, and I haven’t had time to do the quality writing I always aspire to! Now, enough excuses – this post is one that is very important to me. This is my 100th blog post. (more…)
It’s been a full year since I started this blog, and I can’t believe how quickly time has flown by.

It’s been three months and 25 posts up to now, and as it turns out, it’s done both of those and more.

Some of them were expected, while others… I just never saw coming.
I’m thinkin’ maybe I should share those with you so that you stand a fighting chance of dealing with them better than I did at first. (more…)
