Battlestar Galatica Spin-off

by @ Wednesday, April 26th, 2006. Filed under Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Television

Today Sci Fi announced a spin-off of Battlestar Galatica. It’s called Caprica and would focus on that world 50 years before Battlestar Galatica. It looks like it will feature the creation of the Cylons. My family loves Battlestar Galatica, even my Mom and Dad watch it, so I’m very excited about this show as well.

AC Update

by @ Wednesday, April 26th, 2006. Filed under House

I forgot to mention that our AC was working again. “The guy” finally showed up around 6pm Monday evening. This was after they called us around 3pm and told us he’d be there in an hour. *sigh* In any case, he cleaned the coil and charged the freon and all seems to be ok now. [...]

Temporary Crown

by @ Wednesday, April 26th, 2006. Filed under Personal

Just got back from the dentist. Everything went well. It took about 1 hour 15 minutes this time. They said the soreness I’ve been having is normal and might last another week or so. They also said I’ll be a little sore from the work they did today. I’m getting ready to head into work [...]

Growing Up

by @ Tuesday, April 25th, 2006. Filed under Family

I took Xander to school this morning. He got out of the car and I closed the door. “Daddy!” “Oh, sorry.” I opened the door back up and let him close it. As we are walking in I say, “Sorry about that Xander, I just have trouble remembering that you are a big boy now.” [...]

Root Canal

by @ Thursday, April 20th, 2006. Filed under Personal

Well, the root canal is all done. Finished it up about a 1/2 hour ago. Wasn’t all that bad. It took about 1 1/2 hours to get everything done. Didn’t really hurt very much, and the pain I did have was mostly from holding my jaw open for so long. I had Harry Potter to [...]

AC Update

by @ Tuesday, April 18th, 2006. Filed under House

“The guy” came out and took a look at the AC. He said the first thing we should try is having the coil cleaned, so we’ve got that scheduled for Monday now. Looks like the worst day between now and this wil be 76°F prediected for Thursday, so we should be able to handle it. [...]

Yard Work

by @ Sunday, April 16th, 2006. Filed under Family, House

Despite the air contidioning problems, we got out this morning and got some good work done on the front yard. We got mulch out on the trees and the area around the bushes and got the bushes fairly well weeded. It still needs more work next weeked, we didnt’ buy enough mulch, but things are [...]

Air conditioning

by @ Sunday, April 16th, 2006. Filed under Family, House

We got up Saturday morning and it was a little warm in the house. There wasn’t any air coming out of the vents. I went downstairs to take a look and the AC pipes were frozen up good. I changed the filter and we left if off for most of the day. We left the [...]

Dentist Stuff

by @ Thursday, April 13th, 2006. Filed under Personal

So I went to the dentist yesterday because of a pain in one of my teeth. I’m scheduled for a root canal the afternoon of the 20th and then a temporary crown the Wednesday morning after that. Fun.  The final crown will be a week or two after that once it comes in.

Old Style Baseball

by @ Monday, April 10th, 2006. Filed under Baseball, Games

Everything exists somewhere on the Internet. Today I found (via Digg) a video someone made (scroll down a bit there to get to the video) that syncs up the audio from Game 6 of the 1986 World Series with video from RBI Baseball. It’s quite impressive. I played RBI Baseball quite a bit when I [...]

Happy Anniversary!

by @ Saturday, April 8th, 2006. Filed under Family, Personal

Today Kate and I have been married 11 years! It’s been a wondeful 11 years, I wouldn’t trade a day of it for anything.  I’m amazingly lucky to have such a smart, beautiful, supportive woman to travel through life with.  On top of that, she’s a wonderful mother to our children.  I’m truly lucky.

Xander Update

by @ Thursday, April 6th, 2006. Filed under Family

Xander is doing well this morning.  His temp was normal this morning when he woke up.  Hopefully it’ll stay that way today.  I’m back at work today, so things are slowly getting back to something like normal.

Xander Update

by @ Wednesday, April 5th, 2006. Filed under Family

Xander had a good day today.   We left him off of medicine most of the day and his temp stayed around 99°.  Around 4pm is had crept back up to 100° so we put him back on Ibuprofen.  We’ll keep an eye on him tonight, be we should be able to at least get a [...]

Mira’s Success

by @ Tuesday, April 4th, 2006. Filed under Family

In all the excitement of the last day, I’ve not mentioned Mira that much.  She’s only gone to the bathroom in the potty since Sunday morning.  That includes overnights.  She has been doing a great job with it.  She still wears a pull-up overnight, but that’s just because Mommy and Daddy are paranoid still.  I [...]

Evening Xander Update

by @ Tuesday, April 4th, 2006. Filed under Family

Xander is doing very well tonight. His temp has stayed around 99° all day either from the medicine, or from his recovery. We’ll wake him up at least once tonight to give him medicine to help him make it through the night. Then we’ll evaluate again in the morning and see how things are going.
