My regular blog readers have probably noticed the silence these past couple of months. I’ve been extremely busy, both at work and at home. At some point within the past few months, I slightly altered the sidebar description of this blog to denote that it is reserved for “larger more encompassing thoughts, essays, concepts, and […]
It’s dangerous to go alone!
I mentioned a couple of posts back that I started a new gaming blog. Well, sometime soon after I started the blog, I decided to give it a more permanent home. It’s not that I don’t like Posterous, it’s just that I felt it needed something more. So now, the blog is housed at WordPress […]
New blog!
I know, why do I need another blog? Well, it’s simple. Every now and then I like to talk about video games. And even though this blog is appropriately called “Nerdflood”, I don’t necessarily want it to become a games-centric blog. I want it to be about me and my penchant for nerdiness. Henceforth, all […]
Track the progress of my novel
The outline is complete. I’ve now bolted down the first words in my second attempt at writing a novel (first attempt was for NaNoWriMo, and as far as I’m concerned, doesn’t actually count). So now, I need to be held accountable for actually getting this sorry scrap-heap of nonsense into an actual, honest-to-goodness palatable work […]
Don’t mind me, just hanging up the “gone writin'” sign
I would love to able to say that I’ve been “busy” lately, but that just isn’t the right word. Distracted is probably more appropriate. Between being glued to the Democratic National Convention speeches and pretending to write a novel, I just haven’t found the time to do much else besides surf and not blog. I […]
Getting back on track
I know this blog hasn’t exactly been a “flood” of “nerd” the past few days, and I apologize to regular readers for the lack of content. I’ve spent the past few days buried at work, sans-internet at home, and acting as temporary single dad to my two boys while the wife visited her mother. It’s […]
Nerdflood: part of the elite tech blogging empire?
I never take a moment to consider exactly who is going to read my blog when I create a new post for Nerdflood. Oftentimes, I don’t think about the fact that people beyond my close friends and family read this blog; and even my close friends and family don’t read it all that much (Mom? […]
Now I have competition from my wife
Well, not “competition” in the strictest sense, since I’m actually eager to see her in this particular space, but it appears as though my wife has decided to take up blogging. Now, I won’t be linking to her blog around these parts, as it’s a more personal site for just close friends and family. I […]
Disconnecting, and it feels so good
Being offline for an entire week has really put a lot of things into perspective. Coming back to a veritable information overload online with over 1,500 unread Google Reader items, I’ve decided that a lot of the noise I listen to runs completely counter to my goals in life. So I’ve decided to make a […]
…aaaaaaand I’m back!
So, what happens when I’m out of the office for an entire week? Oh, nothing much.
