About Me
My name is Josh Wehner. I come from a long line of Ohio-dwelling Wehnerses. My immediate family, though, moved around a bit. We lived in Dayton for awhile, then Washington, D.C., Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and Kansas City, Missouri. I went back to Ohio for college, but ran off to study in Germany my junior year. I did the grad school thing for awhile. I got married and we lived in Madison, Wisconsin for awhile.
We live in Toronto, Ontario, now. Well... Technically, it's Mississauga, Ontario, but we're moving again, soon.
I'm a Web developer and a big geek. I like games, gaming, reading and computers. I'm learning to cook.
A long, long time ago, I was writing up something that involved discussing a little bit of stuff from my past. Basically, I realized that every time I think about my own history, I tend to think in terms of City I Lived In or Grade I Was In School. This is darned inconvenient, because nobody else uses these terms, and I always have to translate to years of some kind. That's usually a horrific bit of math ("lessee, I'm 20 now and its 1998, how old was I in third grade? well, this is what, the 16th grade now, so...") so I thought I'd make myself a timeline.
Well, then I just got carried away.
I started out with a timeline that just matched up the year (I added Fall and Spring for each year, since I was usually dealing with things in those terms) with my grade level at the time. Then I added my age to it (that's always been another rough spot of math). Then I added a part for where I lived. Then I thought it'd be neat to put my main hobby at the time in another column. THEN, I thought it'd be neat to put the computer I was using at the time.
Then, I got a little silly and added things earlier and earlier back in time (hmmm, 1978, city? "womb", age? "birth", hobby? "kicking") and that was fun.
Anywho, I don't update it very often, but you can still see the timeline here.
