autumn twilight

My pinky finger hurts. I pulled a nail too severely the other day and wounded myself. The left shift key is not pleasant at the moment.

I’m going to try blogging a little more regularly again, even if some of what comes out isn’t life changing or crazy important. I’m going to try for 3 blog posts a week here. I’m also working on a new skin for the site. I will be very very happy when it is done and looks awesome.

Work is crazy busy. I feel like I’m being pulled in multiple directions at once, and need to get clarification from management what my priorities are. But it’s good that I’m keeping busy. I have no money right now, and I hate that with a fiery passion. I get paid early next week, or possibly over the weekend. That will be very very helpful and make me feel like less of a bum.

As of yesterday my weight was 255 lbs. This is 15 lbs lighter than I was 5 months ago. Not great, but it’s getting there. My current goal is to be less than 230, which will make me lighter than I’ve been in 5 or 6 years. After that I’ll start looking at breaking the 200 mark (which will make me lighter than I’ve been in a decade).

I’m also going to try to write more fiction again, but I don’t know how often or how much I will be able to get to. It’s not high on my priorities. I’m going to try for the 3 blog posts a week to start and build up from there. I also want to build a writing program. I may build it as a web application or I may not. The idea is to over time be able to have all of my writing in one location so I can manage it more easily. That’s not to say that I’ll ditch my journals. A lot of writing seems to be more appropriate by hand, but I would like to make an effort to type most of it as well.
