Bidness
I’m starting a business. I’ve done little else in my free time but work for myself for several months now. I realized in the last couple weeks that it is just as possible to get burned out working for yourself as for someone else. In fact, I proved it. I think I not only hurt myself, but also my wife.

New blog for me
I’ve been blogging since 2001. Started out freeform, then used some blogging framework I’ve forgotten. Eventually I discovered and I have been using it happily ever since.
