I'm back in the gym! Finally after months of searching for a good gym, I've found the perfect place to work out. It's my neighborhood community center. It's a third of the price of any other gym in the city (NYSC, Equinox, etc.) and I love that it's not a scene.
I'm focusing on cardio exercises for now because I want to trim down, not bulk up. I'm excited about getting back into shape. I already feel better than I have all summer. Can't wait to play volleyball again without getting exhausted.

Birthday Thoughts...
After a much needed vacation to Florida to gather my thoughts and strength, I have returned to start a new chapter in my life. Florida was unbelievable! I love my old friends down there and the beautiful beaches are so welcoming and the ocean is as blue as it's been in my dreams as of late.
I know the vibe is just different down there, it's a non-stop party but it can get old rather quick. Of course, as soon as I got in my cab from Laguardia back to my apartment, I realized that this is definitely my home. There's just something magical about New York that I have yet to be able to put into words, and a part of me doesn't want to be able to as I'm afraid that when I can finally describe what it is that draws me to this place; I will be bored with it.
Looking forward to Spring in Manhattan is almost as good as waiting for Christmas morning. Tomorrow I turn 32. Where does the time go? I mean really, that sounds so cliche, but I am sitting here, 10 minutes from my birthday and I'm wondering what have I done in my life and where will God lead me in the coming year?
My Good friend Geoff's wife gave birth to their first child last night! I went to visit them in the hospital after church today and it was such a beautiful experience. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wasn't scared or freaked out to pick up his new born baby and play with him. I guess a part of me wanted to see what it would be like when my sister and my brother's wife have their kids in September. Wow, that's all I can say about the miracle of life.
Lord! what's next?? I am so thankful for all that you have given me, but I'm so excited about this coming year that I can hardly hold a thought in my head. I feel like tomorrow will be the beginning of a long journey of which I do not know the conclusion. All I know is that there are no accidents, and everything that you've done in my life is just leading me closer to you.
Happy Birthday to me! April 2nd 2007

It's been a while...
Well, the new year has proven to be the most challenging as of yet. My steady job for the past 9 years is coming to an end this week. God has given me an opportunity to strike out on my own. It's always been a dream of mine to own my own business, but until now, it's only been that; a dream.
As of February 28th, I have resigned my position as the Director of Internet Services for ION Media Networks. I am now the single employee of DL Technologies Inc. a company I formed in 2002. I am extremely excited and at the same time a little anxious about running my own business. Qubo has hired my company to be the exclusive IT consulting firm for their offices in New York. What a blessing to get to work with such a fun group of people from NBC and Scholastic Media as well as Corus Entertainment.
I am so thankful for this opportunity that God has given me that I had to write it in my blog! Yes, I no longer have health insurance or a 401K, but what I do have is freedom and new responsibilities that all belong to me. I am looking forward to providing Qubo with the best service that anyone can offer and I owe it all to God for opening the doors and giving me the courage to walk through those doors.
I am so excited I can hardly sleep at night. It's been a while since I've felt this excited about my work. It's good to focus on my career again and take my mind off of the drama of my personal life for a while. I'll keep you all posted on the progress.
My prayers are for all who read this to be encouraged to do something bold in their lives even if they are scared.
