I haven’t updated this site in a long time, probably because I’m pretty busy with work. After spending 8 hours in front of my computer at work, I’m not really in the mood to spend another 4 hours on it when I come home. I never thought that would be possible, but it is. Also, I don’t really think I should be updating my blog on company time.

Anyway, I just wanted to say “Thank you” to everyone who wished me a happy birthday yesterday. A few updates:

  • I’m probably going to buy a Nikon D40. Should be pretty awesome. I’ll get a couple of lenses, some filters, a tripod, and a cleaning kit and I should be good to go with that. Obviously, any pictures I take that are worthy of public consumption will be posted on my photo gallery. I’ve always wanted a DSLR and now I have an excuse to buy one, which brings me to update number 2:
  • I’m also probably going to roadtrip from San Jose to Cleveland with Derewecki. It will be tight. More details to follow.
  • I have some planned upgrades to my computers, if anyone is interested (surprisingly, some of you are). 3GHz dual core and 4GB of RAM for my desktop, 1GB RAM upgrade for my laptop, and perhaps an extra drive for my RAID array. With the upgrades and the digital camera, it’s going to be a rather expensive summer, so that means…
  • Alas, I won’t be buying an Xbox 360.

That’s all I’ve got. I hope to add more posts in the near future about my experiences with switching to linux full-time and also some interesting readings for any econ nuts that read this blog.
