26th Time Around the Sun
I made it! I made it around the sun for the 26th time. Quite amazing that I made it in one piece too, considering how fast the Earth travels around the Sun. Hopefully, I’ll repeat the same feat next year. Caroline asked as we walked on the Toronto Island on Saturday, how do I feel…

Upgraded to WordPress 2.8
I am continually amazed by the ease of working with WordPress. Not only do the themes and plugins just work, so does everything else. I upgraded my WordPress install to the latest and greatest 2.8 . Simple, clean and issue-less upgrade. This is how technology should work. Get out of the way and perform the…

Brief Hiatus
I’ll be taking a brief hiatus again from daily updates to this blog. I need to concentrate more of my time on writing my novel.

We Are Away
Yesterday my fears of things going horribly wrong again were reenforced. Humanity today looks like a weathered statue, eroded by years of folly, insanity and evil. In half a century, this world will look very alien to what it seems today. Those who know what I speak of, know what to fear. Those that don’t,…

Yet Another Morning
I’m awake and terrified. OK, not terrified as in senseless shaking. No rather I take a look at my various todo lists, and my non-empty inbox, and that brings terror in the form of urgency. I guess I should be used to that already. In the past I just ignored tasks, like one ignores imperfections. …

Heel Dragging

Finally caught up on my immediate projects, and I can concentrate a bit more on my personal and professional development. Also I’ll crank out a good deal of writing and code in the next few days hopefully. …

Regret and Rejoice
Lets play a little game that I know call “Regret and Rejoice”. I regret not posting an update yesterday to my blog. I rejoice that this morning my mind thought cloudy and numb, is alert enough to come up with a post. I regret staying up so late, cause my mind is foggy now. Yet…

Measuring Progress
I apologize for the lack of an earlier update. A writer with a mindnumbing case of writer’s block, is a terrible thing to behold. Hence I put off writing until I regained my bearings and inspiration. Thinking before writing should apply to all who write. I want to touch upon something I write about often:…

Trekking through a Paintballed Wasteland
Wow, this weekend was a busy one. This week it looks like I have to start on those long term goals and not just talk about them. So I’ll keep the next couple of posts relatively short. Friday What better way to end the workweek and begin the weekend, but with friends. I went out…
