It’s amazing how fulfilling a morning of Rockband can be. I played some drums, dropped some lyrics on the mic and felt inspired.
How inspired? Only time will tell…
That’s a very interesting question.
Throughout my web existence, I’ve written, blogged, and posted photos on various sites using various platforms. After moving to DC about a year-and-a-half ago, I’d started to neglect pretty much all of it. My photography site, which I custom wrote, hasn’t been updated in over a year; and my various rantings and ramblings on Facebook and Twitter hold little-to-no value. I kept a LiveJournal back in the day — most of it amounting to the ravings of a new professional who couldn’t catch a break. Recently, I remembered that the landing page for www.spisoft.net still contained a placeholder page.
At work, I’d spun-up an number of Wordpress instances for various purposes; sometimes I forget just how simple it is. Until today, every website and every application that I put my name on was custom-built. I concede defeat to that lifestyle, as the time for re-inventing the wheel is long since past. So, until I can get around to reviving www, this blog shall suffice.
So why even have my own blog? It was that question that kept me from spinning one up. As my professional life marches on, I find that I’ve taken far too little time to sit and reflect upon my life’s experiences. Being now 27, heading into 2010, I’ve accumulated a rather large set of skills and amassed a vast array of memories. I’ve met many people, and I’ve said goodbye to most of them.
Unfortunately, maintaining a professional exterior in this day-and-age is a fine balance of personality and discretion. As my voice becomes further quelled by the powers that be, I’m thrusting my stake into the ground in an attempt to regain my voice and my own version of the truth.
But it’s mostly I desire, as Audioslave would say, “to be where I can speak freely.”
