It seems like Jordan isn’t blogging much these days. What’s up with that?

There are a few reasons for this.

Reason number one is that I have a new day job and that is a major life change. I haven’t had a desk job in six years. My commute is about 40 minutes of subway time and I need to get there at 9 (ish). So this is a major life change. Also, there are a lot of new systems I am learning, new programs, and I am deep in the learning curve.

The other big reason is that my apartment is currently a black whole of technology. Dig: on Tuesday, my phone stopped working. It isn’t a Vonage or FIOS or anything – it is a regular phone. Allegedly, phone people have tinkered with it, sent men to climb poles and, as of late Friday anyhow, it still wasn’t working. In addition to this, I cannot access JH.c, its administrative page, or read its email from home. I can do so from work and on-the-road (I am in Long Branch, NJ right now) but from home, no go. (This is why some of the blog is in italics right now. I don’t know how I did this or how to change it, but I don’t care enough to worry about it.) No one knows why. I even had an IM session with the woman who runs the server JH.c is on and she is stumped. Kerry thinks it is a DNS problem, which means “wait it out.” The baffling question is: why, of all the webpages, is it that the only one I cannot access is mine? Until this is fixed, blogging will understandably be sparse.

Lastly, despite taking ever-increasing doses of asthma medicine, my asthma is getting worse — which means I have less energy to do exciting things and blog about them. I’m still doing exciting things, but my museum and car trips will not be photographed or blogged about until this and all of the above gets straightened out.
