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.
