Life moves on. I got a note on twitter saying congrats on the 9th anniversary. Which means this blog is almost 10 years old, and I started brewing in 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few things have changed since then, but not a whole lot, living, working, and existing in the same basic space. Personally, I&#8217;ve spent a lot less time making, drinking, and learning about beer. I spend a lot more time trying to stay fit, get a bit faster, and maybe some day qualify for Boston. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1122\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/IMG_0948.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since I last posted I ran 3 marathons Chicago 2018, SugarLoaf 2019, and BayState 2019. While I&#8217;ve taken a bit of a hiatus in 2020 from marathons, I&#8217;ve still managed to run 1200 or so miles, and feel the urge to get signed up for a fall 2021 marathon, assuming things shape up for more normalcy then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve started PC gaming a bit, I built a gaming PC for the first time in 20 years. I&#8217;m not good at it, but it&#8217;s fun to play my way through storys. I tend to play driving games, some FPS&#8217;s, RPG and puzzle games. Ghost recon breakpoint, Borderlands2, Wreckfest, Project cars 2, HOB, Starwars Battlefied II, Portal II. I&#8217;ve started a few new old ones, Red Dead redemption, witcher 3, the two newer starwars games, are all on my to play list, but I haven&#8217;t gotten there yet. It&#8217;s a wast of time, but there are worse things to be doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyway. This boring, and kind of pointless, but I figured I&#8217;d try to write again. I&#8217;ve done a few minor home projects which I&#8217;ve enjoyed, and am considering writing up some of the bigger projects around here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy holidays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been some time since I&#8217;ve posted, and longer since I&#8217;ve brewed&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[174,23,173],"class_list":["post-1121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-projects-and-thoughts","tag-174","tag-project-update","tag-running"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1121\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebottlefarm.com\/wpbottle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
