Almost 1 year to the day, I have returned to my abandoned blog. A few months ago I wanted to make an update but couldn’t remember the url to the admin page and forgot the password to ssh in and take a look. I was far too lazy to figure all this out until recently when I moved the site to a new host.
I have almost completely forgotten what I started this blog for except that I know I wanted to snatch up jodymickey.com before someone else did (paranoid much?) and needed something to put on it. I did mention learning Python (which I’ve done absolutely nothing with) but I think I did say that I’d not be so specific and expand to all things web.
Over the past year I’ve had the misfortune of losing my job in this poor economy, although things are looking up so it seems. I’ve had a few freelance projects and while more keep falling into my lap, it’s still not constant enough to make me feel comfortable. So, I continue to search for a full time job. I’ve missed out on some great opportunities for various reasons (hesitation, bad timing, other crappy excuses) and some others that looked promising didn’t work out for reasons out of my control. I guess I’ll just hope that it was for the best, but my credit card statement would argue otherwise.
For one large project I decided to learn the Symfony Framework with Doctrine ORM and I like it quite a bit. If I had kept up with this blog I’m sure I could have written lots of posts about it along the way. I’ll try to remember to jot down handy things in the future.
Hopefully the next update will come before the turn of the decade.
