This is a story of an average day in my life. It was today, in fact. Not all days are like this, but this is what happened today….
6:20am - the alarm goes off, and I hit the snooze button. It’s a 9-minute snooze, so I doze off again, hitting the snooze every now and again before getting up around -

Just a small request….
I have a number of regular fans, some of whom even visit this site on a daily basis. I’m really flattered that you guys visit so frequently, eagerly looking for the latest update. I’d be even happier if you could say hello, as I’d love the opportunity to get to know you. You can contact me by email or by leaving a comment here.
I hope to hear from you.

I was thinking about my life this morning, and it occurred to me that there have been a few really significant moments in my life that are memorable for what I learnt or experienced, or simply the impact they had on me at the time. I'd like to list them here, just for the record, and will try to list them in order of when they happened, but no guarantees….

The other day I went to my old forum, where I used to do my online journaling before it became a blog, and discovered it was no longer there. Apparently the database no longer existed, according to the message on the page.
After waking up from the dead faint, I panicked slightly. My life was on that forum for a couple of years, and I hadn’t transferred everything across to my blog. It was like a part of my life had just disappeared, gone forever.

I found quite an interesting post over here relating to age differences between online friends, and how the author felt 'weird' to be friends with people ten years or more younger than him.
At my old age of 31, were I to be a "real world" friend of any 20 year old girl, people should be asking questions. If I were palling around with some 14 year-old boy geek, they would be asking other questions. Yet, the occasional eyebrow-raising invite hits my e-mail box, and makes me wonder if somebody just might get the wrong idea.

What a couple of weeks it's been. A few things have happened, which I'd like to share with you. But first, apologies for not having written anything these past weeks. I've been a little pre-occupied with a few things, which I'll be sharing with you below.
I've been once again having some challenges finding another contract to move on to. I think there's a few factors at play there, including a slow contracting market at the moment, due to changes in how the new government wants to do things. This makes it a little bit more difficult for contractors, as this government town has a bit of a freeze on hiring new contractors. And then there's the fact that I'm aiming my applications at an area I haven't had a lot of experience or background in, so starting a new career path at the same time has its own share of difficulties.

If you're like the average person out there, Twitter might be something that you just don't get.
"I just don't get it," I hear you cry out every day. Well, I've explained the value for average users over here - Twitter for the average user - so I recommend you read it. And then follow me on Twitter. 
But what about if you're a blogger? Or if you have a website that you want to promote? How can Twitter be of value for you?
