The IT Nerd

You might be wondering why I haven’t been posting entries on this blog for the last few days. In short, I have had a number of things that have diverted my attention:

• Two Wednesdays, I had my condo flood. Long story short, it was a bit of a nightmare as my wife and I had to battle to make sure that the flood which started in the kitchen didn’t go anywhere else. The good news is that it didn’t. But bad news is that the lower cabinets need to be replaced due to heavy water damage. The root cause were some people several floors above us who did some really stupid things incuding pouring grease down the drain. Because of that, I have ensured that they are paying for the repairs to the condo.
• A week ago, I broke a contact lens. That doesn’t sound like a big deal. But for me it is. I have an eye disease called Keratoconus which in my case really distorts my vision. In my case, this condition is treated by using Rigid Gas Permeable contact lenses. These contact lenses are custom made for the shape of my eyes. With them, I have better than 20/20 vision. Without them, I have very limited vision. I cannot drive, and I have massive problems using a computer for any length of time. I had to wait a week to get new lenses custom made as I didn’t have a set of spares. Now I have a set of spares on order so that this doesn’t happen again.

Hopefully, the bad luck is over for me and I look forward to returning to regular blogging. To that end, expect to see a ton of reviews over the next two weeks. Look for reviews for products from Asus, Mazda, McAfee, Netatmo, Roku, & ZTE among others as well as a travelogue to boot.

Stay tuned!
