A recipe for a great Saturday!  Tasha and I grabbed lunch at Denny’s after dropping by to Black & Read so I could get the Gamma World RPG.  (I’m running a session next week, so I had to get it so I knew the rules!)  After that, it was over to the Ballews for D&D, […]

Please come home.  I miss you. Today was the last day before a short week, and many people opted to take long vacations over the holiday.  I’m not one of those people, opting to spend my vacation time for the Christmas holiday, and that means that I have many added roles over the next week.  […]

I am pleased to report a very productive after-karate evening.  I came home and had my favorite guilty pleasure for dinner, Flavorite Beef Noodles.  Shortly thereafter, I finished a tweak to a recent side job which took about an hour and moved on to fixing my ailing Media Center thanks to a package left on […]

The title says it all… we had a very hard workout that started out with combinations.  We did a three punch combination moving forward and backward, so a six punch combination.  We repeated this combination about 50 times, and then moved on to a few different variations that added a front kick and a round […]

Today was a strange day at work.  Right now I am tasked with coordinating a remote team and making sure they work effectively, design and unit test reviewing for two teams in our local office, and providing technical guidance for a fairly important part of our application.  This causes me to have many cycles taken […]
