Another year gone in the blink of an eye! Overall, it was a great year. Settling into a job I love with great people, spiralling out of control into a Lego addiction, as well as taking the first steps of procreation!
Blog writing was very thin this year, but nevertheless, here is the highlights of this year's blog posts:
January

March
- Game Endings: A good rant on why video game endings don't have to be happy and conclusive, but it needs a lot of work to pull it off.
- 1 Year as a Technical Writer: A summary of my career transition into technical writing.
April
- The End of 'How I Met Your Mother': Rant at a disappointing end to a show once loved.
- Trying Out Online Backups: 8 months later, it is still going strong.
May
- Workrave: Keeping On Top of the Pain: Great RSI/fybromyalgia software to use.

2015 is going to have some big changes!
