Seriously, it was like that when I left

October 17th 2007

It has been brought to my attention that it has been some seven weeks and a few further days since my last blog post. There may be some of you out there, who aren’t in communication with me on a regular basis, who may have begun to wonder if I had not, in fact, been [...]

Maybe I need to write it down

August 6th 2007

It has occurred to me recently that I have far more interests, or hobbies if you will, than I have time. Further examination of this revelation, though, is making it clear that it’s not so much a lack of time as it is a lack of managed time.
The things that I manage to actually do, [...]

What dreams may come

July 24th 2007

Another year of coaches college has gone by, and another certificate has been added to my wall; I even managed to find the same frame I used last year.
Last year at this time I remember feeling slightly overwhelmed and uncertain about what I wanted to do with the newly gained knowledge. This year I am [...]

Pimp my shirt

July 6th 2007

Some of you may already know I have a little t-shirt shop on the Intertubes. I haven’t been doing much with it, but I was inspired recently to make a new series of pirate themed shirts. Here are two examples:

With a little bit of lapsang souchong…

January 2nd 2007

Well, another year gone by and I’ve reached some of my goals, but am still lagging behind on others. I suppose that’s the way of things. I mean, to quote a certain jazzy singer, ahead of his time (Jason Mraz), “Well I bet if you all had it all figured out, then you’d never get [...]

He saw the mudders’ lament…

November 22nd 2006

Yesterday Corrie Ann calls me at work, giggling, to tell me to expect an email from The Boy. Up until now his email address has been little more than an alias for Corrie Ann’s, but now he has a fully functioning email address of his own. That wasn’t why she was giggling, though. See, The [...]

Hands are bruised from breakin’ rocks all day…

August 27th 2006

So, um, yeah. That’s my Happy Feet, up there. They aren’t so happy now. This is because my stupid-ass dogs got to them. This, and a host of other chewed up shoes and toys and books and magazines and coffee tables, is the reason why we spent the greater part of the weekend building a [...]

Folks in a town that was quite remote heard…

May 23rd 2006

Back in January, Chris DiClerico posted an interesting article on a type of photography, using a “tilt-shift lense“, that made aerial shots of life-sized buildings and objects look as though they were models. I was highly intrigued by the concept then, so when I came across this article detailing how a similar effect could be [...]

I’ll pick you up and it will be tonight…

March 29th 2006

It occurred to me this morning, on my long commute, that I haven’t made a post of any real substance in a while. Oh, sure, there have been lost of pictures and anecdotes and meme type deals, but no real hey, world, this is where I am and how I’m doing sort of thing in [...]
