Keeping Track of Time – Part 1 – Recognizing the Problem
I have a confession to make. Like many other software developers, my time estimates are seem to vary from real time. Yes, giving accurate time estimates are a difficult task, especially ones that are over long extended periods of time. Add on top of that time seems like an illusion at times, and you have…

Its Been a While
Wow, its amazing much one can do if one sits down and just concentrates on a single task. Yesterday proved a rather productive day, in terms of writing correspondences.

Clubbing In the Courthouse – Part 1
Today I had to go to a summons. I’m grateful for living in a country with a “fair” judicial system, and I’m not going to try to avoid my “civic” “obligations”.

Especially with the amount of different projects and events happening in and around my life, I need to find scraps of time here and there. Not to mention I need to remember tasks, people, the locations of miscellanous…

A Review of January 2009
Every so often I like to look back and review my achievements. In the past I did it so rarely, that I just looked my current work and the few things I remembered made it look like I achieved little throughout the year. So I’ll try to do a quick review for January here. In…

Self-Motivation Pre-Game Pep Talk
I went off-topic with my posts a while ago. You’re probably asking, “Dude, nice blogs where are the gamer posts?” Fair enough. I’m no great shot in FPS matches. My aim often deviates from my target. And missing another player just gives them a reason to exact gruesome retribution, usually with an overpowered rocket or…
