I feel I should post something here just to give anybody who comes across this site information on what is going on. There are a two reasons for lack of resent updates. Well, that if you don’t count my tendency to throw caution to the wind and jump on Xbox after I get home from work.

First of all, I just recently moved across Orange County from Huntington Beach to Irvine. Moving, as anybody who has done so before, sucks. Sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks. My new apartment is definitely an upgrade, but it has been a time and energy drain of late. All of that is behind me now, so I will now begin looking to the future.

Secondly, despite my initial impressions of Movable Type 4, it hasn’t lived up to the expectation. The interface and templating system rocks, but it runs so entirely slow on my hosting that it makes updating a tedious and painful process. That is not how it should be.

I’ve decided that I’m going to move over to Expression Engine, as both a way to get to know Expression Engine a little better and hopefully the performance over Movable Type. Anyway, this site could use some adjustments, anyway, so I’ll also be tweaking the design a bit.

Now if I can just find some time to do all this in, we’ll be golden.
