End of the Personal Changelog

It was fun while it lasted, but the Personal Changelog is coming to an end. I think it served it’s purpose.

Here’s what I learned:

  1. My coffee drinking is just fine — I just need to make it less expensive.
  2. My beer drinking is also just fine, but it costs too much, also.
  3. I’m in pretty good shape.
  4. I might never write consistently until the money thing is figured out.
  5. I can still do higher-level math, even though I don’t need to.
  6. Doing higher-level math makes me experience excellent dreams all night long.
  7. My self-indulgent blogging wastes time I should be using to make a real difference in my life.
