Do you know what’s great? Taking late Sunday afternoon naps! I couldn’t keep my eyes open around 5:30 last night so I ran upstairs and slept until 7. It was great!! I should do it every day…

Bad mood rising… Oh yeah. I don’t know why. I woke up in a great mood, with Max making his little Max noises in his bed, Jen in the shower and me waking up at a leisurely pace. Why hurry when the shower’s occupied and Max may get tired of playing in his room at […]

I’m one scruffy man… It’s been almost two months since I had a haircut, and I still have the leftovers from my Adventure in Hair-Dye. This Saturday, the two-tone mane goes away even if I have to do it myself. I can only stand so much gel on my head. How’s that for banal? I’m […]

And by the way, you know if I post a lot during the day it means either I have nothing to do, or don’t want to do what I’m supposed to be doing… just an FYI for the interested parties.

There really isn’t anything to say today. I’d hate to not provide my loyal reader(s) with something to pass the time with, so why don’t you go rent a movie, go check a book out from your local library (like The Code Book or To the Bright and Shining Sun)? Yeah, that sounds like fun. […]

So, I got my annual review this morning at work, and I must say, I’m very happy. I’ve worked for some pretty good managers in my career (yeah, I’m 26 and I have a ‘career’), but my current one is the best yet. He gets it. He knows what it’s like to write code, and […]

I lost my favorite project manager today. He’s not dead, and he was kind of pulling for it, but damned if it doesn’t feel like he’s dead. I feel like having a funeral for him. “Poor Jim, he was taken too soon.” And best yet, we have a big meeting @ 5, so I can’t […]

Today could not suck more. Sorry, but it had to be said.

If I didn’t feel like working yesterday, I really don’t want to do anything today. I think maybe I’m coming down with something. I can’t seem to get rid of this headache, and I slept for 10 hours last night and I’m still tired!

I would love to get some work done today, but I can’t. I keep starting things and then putting them down. I’ve written a couple hundred lines of code that is just shell for something that will actually do something. I started something in PhotoShop, and it’s just sitting there, half-started. I have a new […]
