Well Trucrypt just went nuts. This could be bad.

I love you, version control.

I love all the time we spend together – merge conflicts, rebasing repos, accidentally committing vendor folders on my Composer projects…

You really have saved my butt so many times – it truly appreciate you.

But right now just isn’t working for us. I’m off at college! I mean the last time I saw you was during my gap year – and we did see each other every day. But now distance has quelled the fire. I’m working on smaller personal projects to stay sharp, and I’m just looking for something casual. I don’t want to commit on every change! It’s not like I break the codebase that often, anyway…

It’s been a long time since I’ve set up a website I can call entirely my own. I’ve done countless jobs for clients, but since my corporate site (which I haven’t touched in over two years), I haven’t had anything publically facing that had solely my identity on it. I always dread template selection and visual design of blogs for my clients, but now that I have a chance to do it, it’s at once fun and frustrating to get things just the way I like them – perhaps I should stop judging!
