Title: Hi from California
Post by: josb on September 02, 2014, 10:03:27 PM

Hi all,

I started PD a few weeks ago and just switched to APD using the Baxter HomechoicePRO. This by route of PKD as a software engineer (DevOps guy, for those who are familiar with the field) working at a medium-sized storage startup in the Bay Area. I'm pretty progressive, big fan of Berlin School electronic music as well as some slow ambient drones, and I like stuff about stars, galaxies and the nature of matter and reality. For obvious reasons I also try to keep informed about anything having to do with PD, and I look forward to learning a thing or two here.

Jos

Thanks for the welcome, Darth! So far my experience with PD hasn't been too bad. It's a drag for sure but things could be worse. It's kind of miraculous to me that it works as well as it does. Probably not what Mother Nature intended the peritoneum to be used for but for now I'll gladly use it as a spare.

Cheers,
Jos
