At some point in the past I was trying to come up with some drivel for the blog and decided to skim the archives to see if that would spark any sort of creativity. We all know that never happened but it has become a bit of a tradition for me.

March 28th, 2010 – Seems that I’ve spent most of the 2000′s (?) wondering what I’m doing. I’m consistent if nothing else. I shudder to think that ten years ago, the NASDAQ was over 5000 and I was still in school about to ‘live the life’ of a dot com rock star. Little did I know at the time that would mean be broke, work a lot but have a ton of fun. Ten years in tech have passed in the blink of an eye while in the shop, they dragged on and on. Does that I mean I’ve been having fun?

So now I find myself having many of the same thoughts that I was having ten plus years ago and wondering what the next move is. Back then I had a few ideas and after some consideration, I ran with one. This time around, fewer ideas and now married, I find myself less able to throw it all away and start over.

I do know that tech is a young man’s game and that I’m on borrowed time…

March 28th, 2009 – moaning about the Blenz at Robson and Bute and various other randoms.

March 31st, 2008 – bought my second MacBook Pro and seemed to be writing about the new YVR Apple store with some frequency.

March 27th, 2007 – writing a post about what the hell I’m doing with my life. Fairly predictable…

March 27th, 2006 – a rant of sorts on Web 2.0 which resulted in the 30 Boxes founder actually commenting about my post. Kinda cool, I suppose…

March 27th, 2005 – hey! I was in Tokyo for the first time! I survived the flight from Korea and bus into Tokyo with the worst head cold ever. Good times. This was only weeks before I started at Atimi. I can’t believe that was two years ago. Hmmm…

March 28th, 2004 – I posted on the 28th, blowing the whole freakin’ streak I was on. I was back in Hooterville and apparently, somewhat dismayed at being rejected after a bad interview. Frankly, that could have been anytime since 2000. Probably a month on from my first visit to Korea. That was a cool trip.

March 28th, 2003 – Good grief. I was going on about how I had just pulled my longest day yet at the Company That Sucked yet I was so happy to be there. I use the past tense as there’s a good chance they don’t suck anymore and after being outta work for nine months, I was pretty happy to be there. That wouldn’t last…

March 28th, 2002 – No idea as the first blog post wouldn’t come until September. As I recall I was working crazy, stupid hours at Infowave !!Link to Flickr Screenshot!! and waiting for the other shoe to drop. I believe it dropped in June…

March 28th, 2001 – Again, no idea but I had just started at Infowave, not having the slightest idea of the impact it would have on my life. All for the best too…

March 28th, 2000 – I know I was in school and still in the shop full time too. My final push after a near mental break down as grad was only two months away. I didn’t go to the graduation ceremony and told them to mail my diploma. I guess it was a means to an end…

So there you have it. A day in the life for the past 7 years or so. Seems like yesterday…
