It’s been a pretty exciting year so far here on the blog and show. I wanted to check in on my peeps to see how you guys and girls are. I had a pretty incredible reminder these past few days of just how amazing this community has grown to be. All of you checking in from Sweden, Italy, the Netherlands, Canada, US, Thailand, Spain, Japan, China, Ireland, Finland, Norway, Indonesia and all other parts of the world have been my motivation. I’m hoping to do some more exciting things to keep you all tuning in, commenting, participating and having fun.
It’s so common in the blogosphere to simply post away and keep hammering the community with news, articles and such with no real regard to how the community is doing but that’s never been what I’m about here. So how’s everything going out there? Family okay, school okay, pets okay, life okay?
good stuff DeaconBlade. glad to be a part...

Congrats Reaper!!! My wife and I have a daughter too . She’ll be 4 in June and she’s a handful!!
Can’t complain, I reserved a copy of GTA IV yesterday and I’m really excited to see what that’s like. Multiplayer sounds fun.

Started the new job in Jan. Could use a raise, I’m just thankful I found a room mate I knew from high school… otherwise the bills would be too much. But it’s a start.
Working in the IT department at a tax firm, 5 more days of everyone here being stressed to their wit’s end, then it should come down. This summer the IT department plans a huge upgrade to SAN & blade servers, will be geeky fun.
My own little WinBreak.com has been doing really well… I get impressive traffic, considering how sparsely I update. I want to dedicate more to that, but as tax season has come crashing down on me it’s been harder to want to look at a screen after I get out of work!
I’ve VERY recently started writing again (I’m an English major, contrary to my current career!) in my tiny bits of free time. It feels good.
No “special someone” in my life, but I’ve been setting a few long term goals, both career and personal, including talking a girl from home into possibly moving to Eastern PA with me… but really, the weather’s getting nice and I’m feeling alright - that’s all that matters to me.

Every day that I wake up is a great day! A few bumps in the road, but all things considered, I am doing great.
