new baby, boy, 10:55
I went with Jen to her OB appointment yesterday, so I could see our baby. Doctor GoGo (a story for another time) wanted another sonnogram to check the size of the kid because Jen is measuring “large”. We arrive in the little room with the dim lights and Jen exposes the Belly that contains the […]
My little brother asked me this week what it would take to set up a blog. He played right into my trap. It took twenty minutes to set up the new domain, MySQL db, an hour to wait while Dreamhost got them all set up, then another 10 minutes to install and configure Textpattern. I’m […]

I’ve never felt like a “good Mormon” before. I still don’t think of myself as “normal”, but I’ve realized recently that you can be […]
I’ve been out of the office for exactly a month. My last day at the office before today (1/5) was Friday, December Fifth. I’ve never done that before, and I liked it, maybe too much. Now I’m back, and not sure what to do with myself. I’m now used to sleeping in, eating breakfast with […]
