My first post, and random thoughts.

So, here I am. Starting a blog. I've had a few others. My own personal site, which I stopped using, and then got rid of hosting. Still got the domain, might forward it to here. I've got a livejournal, but that's more for personal stuff. I think I'ma use this space to rant about stuff in general. Hopefully it will be entertaining to you.
Let's talk about me some. I'm a geek, I work in IT. I have odd ideas about the world, and hopefully my viewpoint will be interesting to you.
I love technology, new shiny gadgets are always fun. I have a Nexus One, I absolutely love Android. 
I like to create, build things, modify things, grow things. I made a greenhouse in my back yard, setup rain barrels for watering, built beds for planting, made a compost bin for food scraps.
I'm a self-taught programmer, mostly open source. Started with PERL and then moved onto PHP. Messed with Javascript and HTML, lots of personal work in web development. Recently I've gotten into microcontrollers, I love the Arduino. So many wonderful ideas and things to use it for.
I'm a gamer. Right now there's nothing big on my plate but I am a WoW player. FOR THE HORDE! I probably spend too much time playing, but I have other stuff I do.
I watch a lot of TV too, Sci-fi shows, procedurals, British stuff. Can't get enough cheesy movies; love Syfy original pictures. 
I have a son, he takes after me (sometimes a little too much). He's got a blog around here too. I have a live-in girlfriend, she's also got a blog here.
For now, that's about all I have to say, I'll post about last night's adventures in just a minute.
