Back to the future!

So I just got a new toy. Dating someone from Apple has its perks, not only do I have someone incredible awesome to spend my time with, but I was able to get a Time Capsule for my laptop to backup against for about 30% off!
This thing is great. Its a much better secondary wi-fi point for the front half of our house due to its increased strength, and the 802.11n speeds. Also its nice being able to turn time machine back on, and not having to worry about the fact I am backing up against something that I have to physically remember to plug into my laptop anymore, so now its always-on! I am such a geek sometimes… sheesh.
On another note, why is it people who have cats that are “scared of people” always seem to love me? Yet again an antisocial cat thinks I am quite awesome after just a few hours around me. I don’t get it.
Blog necromancy

I really didnt let this blog die, I just got lazy and unmotivated, thats TOTALLY different. I swear!
So time for the obligatory blog-catchup. In feb I moved to the Bay Area when EA relocated me to the Rupture team, this was a Huge Thing. Then 2 weeks ago I was laid off. This was also a Huge Thing. I am currently waiting to hear back this week on a (hopefully) pending job offer for another team at EARS. If all goes well I can hopefully land that and stop worrying
Living in San Francisco is amazing, and I think I have found my last true Home. This place, is so me. I wish I had moved here years ago. I have some awesome friends here, and some equally awesome room mates I have known for years, and just this weekend started hanging out with someone new who is even more awesome than all of the above, but I wont go into detail on her for fear of jinxing myself
Lastly, the first day I started work out here, Tucker passed away. I hadn’t seen the little guy in weeks, so this really sucked. As soon as as I have my life settled and am in my own house, I plan to get a Yorkie of my own, but it sure wont be another Tucker, he was one of a kind.
So yeah thats the most important bits I guess of the last few months. I’m gonna make an honest effort to get back into updating this regularly, but we will see just how well this actually works. History does not favor my track record.
