I was downloading a backup this morning from the fairly new dedicated server: Note the 1.5 MB/s downspeed, from a server! Get that with a shared host. I dare you!

Awesome Birthday Gift

A good friend of my wife’s, who’s since become a good friend of mine (Trish) confused me the other night, at the party, by saying that my gift was “being made in New Jersey” and that it would be a few days late. Confused, and wondering, I forgot about it. Until last night, when Christine [...]
Age 30; Day Two.

It’s my second day in my thirties, and my back’s killing me. I know, I’m old. But I have a good reason. Last night was the party to celebrate my 30th birthday, and we did it in style. With the things we love. Movies (well, a movie theater), Rock Band, and pizza. Oh, and friends [...]

We got back from Washington D.C. a little while ago, much longer of a drive than I thought it would be. I resized and uploaded all 447 photos I took. I didn’t label them all yet, so you’ll have to figure out what’s what, until I get around to that. But, enjoy! Update, I’ve begun [...]
