In the future...
...who knows what will happen? But time has this way of rolling inexorably forward, and we don't have a whole lot of control over the pace of it all. This coming Sunday will mark the start of my own 40th trip around our local stellar orb! Certainly a good time to reflect on time itself.
I can feel Summer creeping up on us. The thermostat in my office this morning was three degrees hotter when I came in yesterday. I've been riding my bicycle into work on favorable days (which have been pleasantly abundant lately) and have managed to avoid having to fill my truck's gas tank for a month!!! Wow. In the last month, I've also managed to establish a new PayPal account and restart my ebay auctions to clear out some old things from my office, and been pleasantly surprised at the lucrative results. One auction a week is certainly worth running, esp. with my winning ebay sale formula (pick something worthy to sell, make sure it works BEFORE auctioning it, take some sharp, well-lit pictures, and then list for 10 days with a starting price of just $10, no matter HOW much it's actually worth. A fight will inevitably break out between two or three individuals, pushing the price to the reasonable limit!)
My job itself has been rather slow lately, and I've thought a bit recently about how long I can keep this little software company going, and what I'd most like to do for an encore. Hard to believe, but I've been doing this for 16 years! But after this, I don't think I'll be doing software for a living. There's so many other things I enjoy and know how to do quite effectively, but what would I prefer doing for an actual paycheck, and what do I know how to do that's reliably lucrative and gives me sufficient free time? Hmmmmmmmmm.... there's probably plenty time to plot and plan accordingly.
Meanwhile, commercial prospects for my beloved C.O.G. are back on the front burner. The next thing required is proper glossy head-shots of all our major characters, and the shoot's scheduled for tomorrow. Might be a good time for me to update my faux follicle fitting...
