First Post!

Salutations. Call me Gog. Briefly, I’m a CS degree holding male who is currently employed as network/sysadmin. Hardly a rare thing these days, I admit, and perhaps not even worth mentioning but I thought I’d bring it up since my current place of employment happens to be *gasp* a public library. Yes, that’s right. Not only do I work for The Man, but 95% of the people I work with are female. Now, at first glance, this may seem like a fantastic opportunity for a young, single guy such as myself – and it probably would be – if most of the women I work with weren’t A) old enough to be my mother (and act like they are), B) stark raving mad or C) both. My therapist simply adores me.

I’ve been blogging off and on for the past 6 years or so, perhaps even before it was known as blogging (I’m too lazy to check), and there are a small number of you out there who may find parts of this post a bit familiar… such is life. I’ve found it amusing at times, yet in the past, I was always working with a group of people for reasons or goals that weren’t necessarily mine. This time it’s different. It’s just me and the keyboard. I’m in control and this is my story.
