My blog. Personal thoughts, anecdotes, and musings.
I’ve been so busy I haven’t had any time to write at all. I’ve been working
on this program for work, and I’ve been spending my spare time watching Ana
or working on the solution to a problem we have at work. I am very close to
the solution and hopefully everything will work out.
It is truly amazing to me how people can find ways to make money. Microsoft’s
new server apparently isn’t
compatible with most of their software products,
so consumers will need to upgrade.
Things are going well… we’re in the early stages of buying a house, and by early stages I mean that we are looking around and trying to figure out how much it’s going to cost. We’re going to try to get pre-approved for a loan from our bank so we can get a better idea of how much we can spend. I’ve been spending my time working on video projects and organizing my files.
I had a great weekend. Friday night we grilled out with some people from work.
Charter closed all standard ports for ftp, mail, and web now, as well as ports for TCP file sharing. That means that my mail servers are down. I got around the FTP and Web thing though, so that’s nice.
Going on vacation is bad, primarily because coming back from vacation and staring at a huge to-do list is an awful feeling. All I wanted to do today was go outside and goof off. Unfortunately, a lot of things happened while I was gone and I got to clean some of them up. It’s interesting to see how things fall apart when I’m gone. Some things that people were having trouble with “miraculously” fixed themselves now that I’m back.

Thursday night was just awesome. I was at Harlem Ave. Lounge with Neal and it was the open jam night. As we walked in, we noticed that they had keyboards there this time, so I didn’t have to play the guitar. We signed up and ended up being the first ones on.
Well it’s one day late, but it’s finally here. After getting my domain stuff straightened out, I sat down to watch The Simpsons. It was a pretty funny one, with a few jokes that were just mean (but funny nonetheless.) Enjoy these fabulous web links too. Sony adds DVD +/- RW drives to PlayStation 2 in Japan!

Here I am, outside, nerding it up on my blog while my daughter plays in the
sand. It’s just so cool how technology works!. The weather out today is just
awesome. It’s in the high 80s but it’s really not too bad because of this great
breeze. I have a patio on the north side of my house , so we can sit in the
shade and relax. We bought a sandbox for Ana and she is just loving it. We’ve
been outside for about an hour now and she hasn’t even gotten the slightest
bit bored yet. I like this idea because I can sit out here and spend time with
her and also get some work done. sl
