That’s right, ladies and gentlemen.  You read that title correctly.  As you read this post, Tasha and I are camping at the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve.  We are going with one of my coworkers, his family, and a couple that we both know.  This comprises our entire D&D group except for one […]

I recently took the plunge and installed Windows 7.  I committed to give it a shot, since I’ve successfully bypassed Vista and wanted to try the latest effort since I’ve heard Microsoft is somewhat desperate to get a good OS release out. I have to say that so far I’m pretty impressed.  My laptop is […]

Tonight’s workout was a good one.  We started out with basics and moved quickly moved into combinations.  They weren’t too demanding tonight, and I was feeling good by the time kata came around.  Dale-san had us run through our first and second least favorite kata, I selected Hangetsu and Kanku Dai.  I don’t like Hangetsu […]

Today marks the release of a new first person Ghostbusters game.  Vanirtjones is very into this game, touted to be akin to a Ghostbusters 3 movie, but I’m just not super-pumped about it like he is. When I was a kid, I went through a Ghostbusters phase like any child of the 80’s.  I watched […]

I had a VERY long but VERY productive work day.  Wall-to-wall meetings, but we actually decided some things and it was good.  I sure hope my meeting load lightens up over the next few days, it sure makes for a long day at the office. Since Tasha and I had houseguests this weekend, we didn’t […]

I woke up pretty much on my own this morning, shortly after Tasha left to drop one of our houseguests off at the airport.  I guess the 16 hour sleep-spree that I went on Friday night/Saturday morning plus the 8 hours I got last night got me all sorted out for sleep.  My allergies are […]

I made it back to Colorado in one piece!  I did a few hours at the office when I got back, then came home and crashed for literally 16 hours.  My allergies have been sucking for the last few days, and a combination of lack of sleep and allergy medicine put me down for the […]

I am here at the majestic Greater Peoria International Airport waiting for my flight back home to Denver. I had the distinct pleasure of getting to transport some electronics back in my baggage, I was very surprised how little trouble I was given while checking my bag. I am looking forward to getting back home […]

It was a good workout tonight… it all started with a little dojo cleanup.  It seems the daycare that runs in the YWCA left us with a bunch of muddy footprints and standing mop water on the dojo floor, so a bunch of us took to the task of sopping up the leftover water. The […]
