<p>The Holiday Spirit made me a bit too jolly! After many cookies and cocktails,
|
|
|
|
|
|
it’s time to get active, and fix some bad food habits. Again.</p>

<p>My business, <a href="https://www.niblock.tech">Niblock Technology Solutions</a>,
|
|
|
|
|
|
continues to move forward. I have a second client! Next, I want to work on
|
|
|
|
|
|
expanding my offerings, and improve my coverage.</p>

<p>I’ve begun a playthrough of one of my favorite games, <strong>The Elder Scrolls IV:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oblivion</strong>. I’m very happy with the modding setup I’ve got this time around,
|
|
|
|
|
|
and look forward to writing up the details!</p>

|
|
|
<p>I have a goal to improve my music sight-reading skill, and plan to do so by
|
|
|
|
|
|
reading a new piece of music each week. I’ve started off with some Bach, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
will likely continue with him for a bit.</p>

This site is a small slice of internet real-estate that I use for
|
|
|
|
|
|
occasional writing. Nothing I say is visionary or profound. I
|
|
|
|
|
|
focus on technology, gaming, and philosophy. All opinions my
|
|
|
|
|
|
own.
