In the beginning... again...

Hi, my name is R.C. and this here, well this is my blog.

Herein, such delights and joys may be found as my musings, thoughts, reflections and prose in no specific order, rhyme nor reason. Should one choose to do so, I will make clear the direction toward specific writings, made available for perusing as they become available.

My flavors vary - I enjoy reading, writing, the outdoors, technology and I (sadly) dabble in politics (or, more precisely, I 'have opinions'). I also enjoy cooking and traveling.

I've worn more than a few hats - I've worked some retail (books), did some professional sports photography (no, not like that, I mean team shots and trophies, everybody say cheese! Even you coach!), worked in EDU (k-12 hearing impaired kids are the happiest), had a stint at Apple (support), did some QA for a video slot-machine company (never play the slots), worked for myself for a number of years (consulting), and finally came back around the education in the form of becoming an Instructional Designer for a company that owns several hosting companies (the specifics of which will not be named, but likely mentioned through thinly veiled name changes (no, not DoGaddy)).

This is my second foray into using the Ghost Bloging software (node.js based, yeah I know, and I don't care what you think :p ). It has interesting features and is still evolving. Looking forward to when that inevitably bites me in the ass (note to self). Currently, theming uses Handlebars, but recently made some changes so it can act as a back-end for Gatsby - if you don't know either of those things, don't worry - you're both not alone, and simultaneously in good company!

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and taking a look. This place will be changing radically over the next few months, please don't mind the dust as I get everything tuned juuuuuust right!
