Sick In The Head

This morning I found out that my sinus infection is back, the pain in my neck is most likely caused by stress and my doctor said the word polyp in my presence. This wouldn’t be your normal butt polyp (you know, a ‘roid or a boil). This would be a polyp in my sinuses, you […]

Keep Your Mac Happy

It’s the Mac Maintenance Post! Working where I do, us Mac users are outnumbered big time, so calling our internal help group for Mac help is practically futile. So, my boss, my pal and I (all in the same group and all Mac users – go figure) troubleshoot most of our own problems. Here’s a […]

Friggin’ Dreary

Is it just me or is everyone depressed? NetNewsWire is delivering a stream of woeful folks and things that will depress you if you aren’t already. It’s rainy and miserable outside. It’s miserable inside. Is it the back-to-school-end-of-summer bleaghs? Or, is it something deeper? I admit it, the news today isn’t great. It’s dreary. Listening […]

Decisions, Decisions

John Kerry officially announced his candidacy today. To compare, I went back and read Howard Dean’s. Now, Dean’s was a couple months ago, and is lacking in specifics. Kerry’s was today and is pretty darn specific on the big issues. After watching his Meet the Press appearance yesterday, I’m not sure who I’m going to […]

This article about how the Administration makes policy decisions is scary. It’s depressing that the most powerful man in the world makes decisions without the facts and then tries to make the facts conform to the outcome he wants. It’s unbelievable. It’s unethical. Jen and I have been talking about this quite a bit (I […]

New Pics

Now that things are back up and running, here are the new photos in the gallery: The Howard Dean Rally in Falls Church Getting Ready for the First Day of School Max’s First Day of Pre-School In other news, I killed the basil plant I bought at the Farmer’s Market. Max and I were doing […]

Dropping the Pooch

We’re Back!!

That was no fun, but I’m mostly back online. There are still a bunch of missing photos, and some links may be broken because I changed the permalinks to something a little more managable (having one directory with 1900+ files in it is never a good idea). I know, you’re not supposed to break permalinks, […]

I Tried, I Really Tried

I tried to send Michele an e-mail for her Voices project. I couldn’t do it. I just can’t. Why? I’m not sure. The memories are too raw, too real and too close. It’s been almost two years, and I can’t do it. I watched Bowling for Columbine yesterday. It was difficult, but even if you […]
