RamblerRandy's Journal: I'm in Antioch now...

Ok, one more forced move (owner's daughter moved back home).
I've found more opportunities here in Antioch for living.
The new landlord is a better person and understanding so he won't kick me out.
However, being robbed blind, etc. (and the police refusing to do anything) I have lost it.
I have no hope of recovery and being able to work again. I feel like I can but whenever I try to start doing something, I fail miserably.
So, I'm lost, dying inside, and no immediate hope of contributing to the Tech community. I hadn't as yet (ever heard of Tilesoft?! Or E-scan?!). I know software and computers inside and out and am a well trained programmer plus a QA Evangelist frame of mind.
I have talent but my ability to actually do it has been lost, I have no assets left in order to get back to work. I need so much: computer upgrades, "office space" of sorts, etc.
