Punchin' the clock

Awright, might as well come out with it, then.

As if it hadn't been glaringly obvious by now, something else has been occupying my time for the last few weeks. I have been gainfully employed.

*shock*

I'm working on contract at a certain corporation that shall remain nameless, located in the north-central part of the Toronto megacity. I'm really liking what I do, but the learning curve has been a bit steep. Which doesn't leave with much brain power at the end of the day to generate blog-posts.

Going forward, I'd like to get into something resembling a balanced routine. Having lived the slacker lifestyle for some time (and for all of my blogging life), it's been downright intoxicating to throw myself back into a job. But this is not sustainable behaviour over the long term.

Anyway, thanks for sticking around. Hopefully I'll work the kinks out eventually. (Or, although less ideal, my contract will run out and I'll have more free time on my hands again.)

Work?! Who'd'a thunk it? (Just kidding of course...)

I suppose it's a necessary evil. Just try not to let it become a habit, is my best advice.

In all seriousness, I'm glad to hear that you got the job and that it's work you enjoy. And thanks for keeping the blog up and running in the meantime. Although a bit of self-censorship will be necessary (as some of your own posts have pointed out), in the long run it should provide yet more fodder for interesting posts and links.

Congratulations, or comiserations, or however that works ;)

Oy! While at the cubicle, please put your anthropological skills to work and cross-check on chimpanzee vs. human group dynamics for me!

Congrats! And a tip of the hat to Jane Goodall.
