Well it’s been a long time since I’ve updated this, but a few new website related things are going on. First, I’ve finaly bought legit webhosting with Dreamhost. I got an amazing deal with tons of storage and bandwidth. No more lagging from my cable/old computer setup. Secondly, I’m starting a new website, People Sleeping In Cars.com. Basically, it’s going to be a photo blog of people who have fallen asleep while riding in a car. People are generally pretty funny when they sleeping, but when you put them in a cramped car with a seat belt, it becomes hillarious. I’m modeling the site after the hillarious StuffOnMyCat.com. I got the idea driving home from work the other day, when I saw some poor guy sleeping in the car with his face smashed against the window. I had to chuckle. So please go check it out and submit some photos for me.
A few blog related issues: I’ve switched from Movable Type to WordPress. Not so much because I think one is better than the other, but just because Dreamhost has a cool one click install feature for WordPress. I’ve imported all my old blog posts (at least through last August, the last time I backed up (ouch)), but I’m sure there’ll be some broken links and pictures, so I apologize. I’m using the default theme for now until I can find some time to create my own.
Lastly, somebody told me yesterday that I look like the new James Bond. Rock.
[...] Another two months have passed since I’ve updated my blog, but that’s pretty much par for the course. As usual, I’ll sum up the last couple months in one post. I started a new job about a month ago at a company called Environmental Data Solutions Group, or EDSG for short. They’re an environmental data management consulting company. I’m part of their EMIS team, so I’m doing IT work, data analysis, comptuer programming, software implementation, and all that other cool computer stuff. I’m really enjoying things so far, so I’m happy. Right now, I split my time at an oil refinery in Carson, LAX, and my home office. Commuting from Valencia was out of the question, so I’ve moved down to Sherman Oaks. Mike and I are going to be roommates (when he moves in next week), and we’re living right across the courtyard from Manny and Nick. Needless to say, it’s a huge improvement over living at home. I even have some pictures of the apartment if you’re interested. The other big news is that I have a girlfriend now. Danielle is her name, and she’s pretty awesome. I’m sure I’ll blog about her later, so stay tuned. [...]
