New year, new EVERYTHING

It's obviously been a very long time since I last posted. It has been since October. I have been mia from here and am trying to get myself together to figure out what kinds of things I am going to post about. Having a specific focus for the blog would be the obvious choice, but I am just going to use this as a scratch pad.

I hope to incubate some ideas, post something everyday and just get my ideas generated.

Thank god I was able to escape my old job, because that was extremely draining and left me no energy to pursue anything. It really drained me and killed my brain. I was on the verge of LOSING it, and finally I was able to escape and get into something else. Retail disguised as an "innovative" environment is a joke. I felt like a factory worker, same outfit day in and day out, repeating the same thing over and over like a trade show video kiosk. I kept my stuff in a timed locker which blinked and beeped. I had to punch in and punch out, everything constantly recorded, always with someone. As if New York weren't claustrophobic enough. I got out just in time before I became completely hateful. Its extremely scary how a workplace can distort your perceptions of yourself and others because of the constrained environment.

My current job enables me to work at home doing web administration and event planning, so its pretty much the perfect thing for me right now. The ability for me to be connected to my work will allow me to come up with side projects.
