Ah the first snow of the season is here. It's about time as well I say. It's been cold enough recently for it to snow and it finally started coming down Saturday night. Only problem is that it hasn't stopped yet. Luckily it's light snow but it is sticking and starting to pile up. I wish I had taken pictures of the surrounding area before getting the film developed today. I'll try to snap some shots tomorrow though since I still have some left on my other camera. When I get those I'll post them up. While I see the snow everyday I'm still amazed by it when I sit and just look at it. I love just looking up into the sky as the snow falls. It can be a bit overwhelming at times.

Wow time is passing by fast, it's already November. Not much to blog about without reall throwing off the tone of the entire feel of this blog. More and more I think I should make a second one but that carries some risk. If I did so it would be a political one and I'm not really sure if I should put out my feelings on politics that way. It would be nice to have an outlet for my feelings but I have to really think about it.
On a different note I'm planning on taking the CompTIA A+ certification exams in a few months (the target date is either Feburary or March). Until then I'm studying up. Most of the information and situations I know from past and current experience and education, and I'm pretty sure I will pass it, but for a test that is going to cost over $200 (it's two test I have to pass actually) I want to make extra sure I'm prepared for it. I'm really curious though if I can get my job to pay for the actual test since it's clearly related to my field of work. I know they pay for college courses when they are related to your area of work and this really wouldn't be to different. Something I have to look into this coming week.
Once I'm done that I'll take the CompTIA Network+ certification exam (target date for this will be July) and then decide where I want to go from there. Having a Bachelors's and Master's is great but having these certs will help even more when I do move on to a different location.
