Good news and bad news

Posted by Buddy on 23 Aug 2006 | Tagged as: Personal

Good news: I got a job. I’ll be working three days a week delivering eggs from a local farm to various stores around the Denver area. It’s a local job, so I won’t be spending the night away from home.

Bad news: My wife was in an accident. She’s fine, Diego’s fine, car’s totalled. Wife might have a little whiplash and she’s a bit weird from the meds they gave her, but she’s good. Seatbelts and carseats save lives.

Fine!

I guess I give in. I will embrace it. For a long time I was upset that something I started as a goofy waste of time was getting twenty-one times the traffic of the part of my site I actually want people to care about. That’s 221 average hits versus 4,982 average hits per day. A little disconcerting. But now that the Futurama area is rather large, I think I’m happy that I can contribute to the nerdlinger community in such a way. There aren’t many users active at any given time, but I can tell by the stats page that lots of people come through search engines. This means we’re providing what people want to find. That’s a good thing. I suppose I can live with that.

Even if it means I’ll have to live in virtual obscurity forever.

As a side note, go visit The Infosphere and be a nerdlinger, like me.

I have nothing to say, I just thought I needed to post. It’s been a while again. Do I have any readers?

I did update the “Currently” page, though. Top of the right-hand column, if you care. It’s quite boring.
