I am currently refamiliarizing myself with WordPress after using SquareSpace for several years. As a result, I am trying to edit and clean up the older post that I exported over and finish designing my header image BEFORE making any new post. Thanks for stopping by and I will be sure to make an announcement on Twitter when I have fully relaunched my blog.

Edit: Now that I have finished reformatting some of my older blog entries from the past I just wanted to make one thing clear. They are obviously old posts, so I would say take them with a grain of salt. While some of them are still a good read they do not have much purpose in the year 2022. I am a very different person from when I wrote these entries/articles 😉

So, this time instead of taking over a year to update it’s only been 4 months. That’s progress right? I mean, gotta start somewhere if you catch my drift. As far as recent updates I have been extremely busy lately. I’m working again which is great not only for the income but because I’m actually doing something that I truly love. I graduated with an Associates Degree in Computer Networking Technology a few years back and I’ve always wanted to work in Information Technology. I also did amazing in school graduating at the top of my class. However, I was seriously dragging my feet on trying to get a tech related job. I’ve always done Customer Service, Administrative/Clerical and Management. Those areas kind of became my comfort zone and kept me from looking for jobs that harnessed ALL of my skills. So after this little sabbatical I’ve taken for the past 7 months or so… I finally pushed myself to apply for an entry-level job in my field. I’m now a Service Desk Analyst and I couldn’t be happier! I work with a lot of nerds and as such not only love my job but the environment as a whole. I feel like I’m actually making some legit friendships and its exactly what I need. I’m going to keep this entry short and sweet because I have some other ideas I’m working on for both the blog and YouTube (freaking finally). I just wanted to give my followers a quick update 😉

Wow, so my last update on this blog was around a year and a half ago. I’m not gonna beat myself up about it because life happens… but I wish I would have made more of an effort. Running a site like this or even a YouTube channel can be a lot of work, especially with the goals and aspirations that I have for it and myself. It’s like a job where you give maximum effort for little to no pay. That said, I still wanted to make it work even if it could only be a part-time thing and I still do. I’ve invested a lot lately, particularly into my YouTube channel and I intend to do the same this summer for this website as well. A couple of months ago I bought a new HD video camera, some lighting equipment, and another mic. I even have better video editing software now; so the only thing holding me back is myself. I have a lot of friends in my corner pushing me to well… push myself, which is exactly what I need at the moment. I’m not going to set a schedule for how often I’ll update because that puts unnecessary stress and strain on me and only leaves my followers disappointed. However, I do promise to make more of an effort with all things extravagantGEEK going forward and I certainly have the resources I need now (including more time) so there is no excuse.
