Hi Dagger,
I just started myself about 2 months ago. I started the same as you did, trying to learn the notes up and down the fretboard, and low and behold....found myself in the same boat you're in now.
I'll go along with chuckswood.... learn some chords and strum patterns to liven up your practices. I've hit some brick walls already where I hear most people tend to give up, so dont get frustrated. Check out some of the lessons on chords and strumming. Kirk's beginner lesson is a good start.
For me the easiest chords to pick up were A, G, E, D, Em, Am(I know the C chord, but still practicing switching with it effectively).
Good Luck!
