My blog. Personal thoughts, anecdotes, and musings.

Short Week Published December 23, 2002

Another week begins, but it’s a short one. I’m working on Christmas Eve, but I get extra pay so that makes it worth it. I’ll be doing the same thing next week too, so that will be nice. I like short weeks!

Slow Published December 20, 2002

What a slow day. I’ve spent more time reasearching than anything else today, and I’m really tired of reading a computer screen. I’m still steamed that I don’t get vacation days at this job, but at least I get time and-a-half for working Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. That will help

Links Published December 20, 2002

Time to post some links. Nothing really new to talk about yet…. but I am sure I will think of something later.

Almost all of my Christmas shopping is done! My mom, dad, wife, and I went out today and hit the mall, and I feel as though I bought everything in sight!. I got some pretty good stuff for my dad, which is cool because he is the hardest person I know to shop for.

Spam Published December 11, 2002

WindowsXP.NU Published December 10, 2002

Ohhhh MAN am I upset tonight. I just read this post on WinBeta.org about one of my favorite web sites, WindowsXP.NU and I am just steamed. Sure, the guy puts up some links to MS beta software sometimes, but he also explains how to make your own slipstreamed boot disks as well as a host of other useful Windows-related stuff. Microsoft is flexing its muscles again.

Parenting Published December 9, 2002

What a weekend. I love my daughter…. but wow… what a handful. My wife had to work nights this weekend, so I watched the little one all day and all night. After this, work will seem like a vacation!
