Random thoughts, musings and things I think are interesting…

My boss, who also happens to be the CEO of the company, asked me a really hard question last Friday: he wanted me to “think about” moving to Texas. This is at once a great compliment and also a huge problem. Its a great compliment because he obviously sees me as someone who can contribute…

A little accident recovery update. I am back to running 3-4 miles at a strectch and almost doing a full weight routine, although it will still be a few months before I build back my upper body strength to where it was. I was benching about 120 before the accident and I’ve had to scale…

Damn, I’ve been busy lately, especially on the weekends. 3 weekends ago it was the opera and the Kenton county fair. 2 weekends ago it was Kings Island. Last weekend was the Boone county fair and the Indy race and the Kentucky Speedway. It seems this summer has just flown by. When I was a…

Well, hopefully some of you may have noticed, but this blog has been down for quite some time. I had a slight power supply failure in my home server and after exporing all the options (to replace the original would have been about $80!), I decided for a slightly frankenstein looking contraption with a powersupply…

Went to the Microsoft Worldwide Partner conference over the weekend in Toronto. Was a fairly good event, although I didn’t get nearly as much out of it as I did last year. I think there were several factors that contributed to this: this was the 2nd year I’ve gone, so there wasn’t as much new…

Been back at work for a few weeks now. My collar bone is still broken and it’s really starting to become a serious inconvinience. Not much pain, but whenever I “forget” and lift more than about 5 pounds, it reminds me. My stitches have healed up nicely, although of course there are two nice scars.…

Well, this will be the first non-injury related post in almost a month. We left for vacation last Saturday and have enjoyed the last few days in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The drive here was great in the new truck…the kids really seemed to enjoy the DVD player. The house is ultra-cool. Swimming…

Got my stitches out yesterday. After having had both staples and stitiches to close up wounds, I have to say that neither are very pleasant. Maybe it was the location, but the stitches in my foot were almost as painful to remove as they were to put it…of course I have to remember that when…

Well its taken almost two weeks, but I’m finally starting to do some of the things I used to do. Still can’t pick up the kids (or wrestle 🙁 ), but I am able to go out and get sround reasonably well. The thing thats giving me the most trouble now is something I didn’t…
