I’m tinkering with a new theme. Whaddya think? Yes, I know the links on the side are dead at the moment. If I can add the header images back and update the sidepage tabs I might just keep it.
OH, and if you use an openid login, please try it [...]
So in anticipation of my changing schedule,1 I’m already altering my gym routine. The last time I was on a 4-10 shift, I really struggled to keep up with a consistent work-out schedule. I’m hoping to prevent that this time around. Instead of working muscle groups, I’ll work 1 primary muscle a day (along w/supporting [...]
I’m hoping everyone had a good Christmas today. Or, happy holiday, Hanukkah, Kwanza, or whatever floats your boat. Be grateful you are alive and have a roof over your head. For many this year, things are a bit blue with the economy so bad. And while there is obviously hope for the future, it is [...]
The marriage of convenience and technology in my household is now complete. I got a nice surprise the last time my Tivo downloaded a system update. Netflix! It has only taken 3 years to finally come to fruition but it is finally here! While the selection is currently a bit limited for downloads,1 the quality [...]
I’ve gotten several emails, comments, inquiries as of late regarding my lack of blogging. Besides being extremely busy at work, the simplest answer is I just haven’t felt like it. It seems to be a trend as I’ve noticed many of my regular reads have slacked off lately as well.
For my part, I’ve always [...]

Monday night was probably one of the most stressful of my career. I’m basing that on the knots in my stomach and the bottle of wine I consumed after work.1 In a nutshell, a circuit panel blew out in our building and a full two-thirds of our system(s) went down in the blink [...]
As you can see, I finally started the half sleeve on my arm. I’m very happy with it so far. This is just the outline mind you. I go back in early January to start the shading and color. It is still evolving in my mind so it may take me a few months to [...]
I got the opportunity to make a new friend this weekend. Slickdome aka JJ from Twitter was in town for a conference. He currently lives in frosty Chicago. I didn’t realize at the time this was his first trip to San Francisco. Anyway, I was more than impressed and came away wishing we lived closer [...]
The great gobble gobble has come and gone. I worked and it was pretty uneventful. In my line of work holidays can be a mixed bag. More people leads to more problems. Also the depression that some experience over the holiday seasons can sometimes lead to unfortunate results. We had a nice big feed and [...]
