All Days Have Dysfunction
ADHD
It’s a thing. It can feel like a blessing and a curse at the same exact time – chaos with a little bit of extra frosting. Putting a name to the problem is something I’ve always tried to do, but being blissfully ignorant of the real issue made life a little harder than it could have been. The focus and drive are there, but only when it suits your particular interest at that exact moment. I’m not a phenomenal writer or a great philosopher, but I’ve been around long enough to know that it takes all kinds to make the world go around. I don’t think of it as a defect in the human condition, but rather as a different strength of the human condition. Most folks seem to be able to handle the day-to-day with relative ease and with just the occasional, “Oops, I forgot my keys,” but when your brain seems to be moving at the speed of a cat trying to get out of a bathtub constantly, forgetting your keys would be the smallest of your “oopsies” throughout the day.

Great Power, Great Responsibility
The Life of an IT professional who walks the walk
Yeah, I think it’s time that this is said. I see it constantly and I’ll bet you do too. The IT guy that just “has a job to do”. The guy that thinks they’re above you or the world at large because they “know things” about stuff. The guy that is just there to fill the time and collect their paycheck. I’ve been there, I’ve seen it first hand, and I’m never going to stop seeing it and experiencing it. The prideless “professional” that couldn’t hack it if they came across a real one.

What It Takes
Tha Lab
This place. It’s a sacred place. The one we call home for our personal or business endeavors. Wherever it is, however scattered it might be. This is our hallowed ground to start projects, come up with ideas or half-baked plans, or just plain fuck off for a couple hours. It may be in the living room, it may be a dusty garage, a basement, or the kitchen counter.
