Keeping busy - Work, web design, GTA IV, golf

Where the hell have I been?! It's been 2-3 weeks since my last article posting and while I do have articles almost ready to publish, I just don't have the time to finish them. See what I've been up to recently below.

Sorry for the lack of updates on my site recently. I've been pretty busy lately and haven't had much time to talk about what's on my mind. I do have several articles half-done, sitting in the queue, waiting to be finished and published on this site, but I just need to find the time (and in some cases, motivation) to finish them.

So what's been going on?

Well, work has been extremely busy for the past few weeks which leaves me with no free time to write some articles. Plus, with work being so busy, and sometimes stressful, that when I do get home, I don't want to spend any more time in front of a computer.

I'm also in the process of building some new web sites for a few different clients. My main focus is building a web site for this local pub that they hired me to build. It's nothing too complicated. They already have a great logo and domain name, I just need to design the site. They also want an easy way to add news/events to the site as well as a photo gallery. So I'm still trying to decide if I should go with a complete CMS package, or just find a couple smaller packages that meet their needs. I'll post more about it when it's done or close to done.

Grand Theft Auto IV has also been eating up a lot of my free time while at home. I've unlocked all three islands but have a feeling I might only be about 50-75 percent of the way done. And that doesn't include all the side missions, multiplayer, etc. I love the game, but hate how much time I waste spend on it.

Finally, I've also picked up golfing again. My buddies and I try to go regularly once a week or two. Plus, I've started going to the driving range after work to get my game up and my swing down. I'm really glad I picked it up again and forgot how much fun golf can be (when doing good).

So that's what I've been up to. Expect to see some more slow times in the future. Hopefully soon my work will calm down, I'll get bored with GTA IV, and I'll be too good at golfing to go to the driving range at night.

Yeah if you do all the main missions in GTA it ends up about 70-75% through. Awesome game though, i will hit you up with a match when you get online.
