crunch time

the pressure is definitely on to make some major strides in these last two weeks. today was a good start. the creative/thinking juices were flowing, and i am preparing to begin some much anticipated tangible work (programming and data collection) in the near future. it just stinks that it has taken this long to get to this point. i guess now is better than never. if things continue as they are, the next few months are going to be pretty trying, but there is a great deal of room for high rewards and satisfying Achievements.

a new addition to the daily grind is keeping intense personal dealings at bay long enough to complete a thought. hopefully things will get better. trying times always look better once you have gone through them, however, in the midst, it can seem like the world is coming to an end.
