I Still Don’t Have a Wii

by @ Sunday, January 28th, 2007. Filed under Games, Personal, Wii

I’ve still not managed to pick up a Wii for myself. I could have this morning, but I didn’t. Wal-Mart had them this morning. I called and they seemed to have plenty. I just couldn’t bring myself to give Wal-Mart the money though. I just don’t like them as a [...]

A Passing

by @ Wednesday, January 17th, 2007. Filed under Family, Personal

My Dad called this morning to let us know that his mom, Nanaw to us, passed away overnight. It’s been a long time coming. She’s been expected to die so many times now, I can’t even count them. It’s sad to have lost her, but it’s a relief also. She’s been [...]

Let the Vacation Begin!

by @ Friday, December 22nd, 2006. Filed under Personal, Vacation, Work

They sent us home early from work today. So that means my vacation has officially started. It’s been a long hard month at work. My boss has been out of the country for the last 4 weeks, so I’ve been doing a lot of his job while he has been out. [...]

Death of a Friend

by @ Thursday, November 16th, 2006. Filed under Family, Personal

We let our cat Zsa-Zsa go today.  She’d been sick for a while.  She’d been diagnosed with cancer back in May.  We evaluated all the options and decided to just let things run their course and make her as comfortable as possible.  Treating it was just going to make her miserable, and then she was [...]

Final Crown

by @ Thursday, May 11th, 2006. Filed under Personal

I got the final crown on my tooth this morning. Wasn’t really any big deal. Everything went well. It’ll take a little while to get used to it being there, I suspect. It doesn’t hurt or anything, it’s just odd having it there.
They did the full all around x-ray thing while [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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.

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.

New Blog Software

by @ Saturday, April 1st, 2006. Filed under Internet/Tech, Personal

I’ve switched from an ancient version of Movable Type to WordPress for my blog now. I didn’t like the changes Movable Type made to their licence when then went to the 3.0 line. My hardware couldn’t handle a database driven blog though. With the upgrade, now I’ve got the hardware to run [...]

Happy 2006!

by @ Sunday, January 1st, 2006. Filed under Personal

2006 is here! I hope everyone has a wondeful year ahead of them.

Back Home

by @ Friday, December 23rd, 2005. Filed under Personal

I’m back home now, safe and sound. First thing I did when I got home was hug the kids and the wife, then get the presents inside. Then the kids and I went out to play for a while (it’s a beautitul day today, 55° outside and very few clouds). It’s nice to [...]

Funeral

by @ Thursday, December 22nd, 2005. Filed under Personal

Uncle Bobby’s funeral was this morning. It was a very nice service. I was doing fine until they were giving the flag to Mike, that’s when I lost it a little bit. I’d not even known Uncle Bobby had been in the Air Force before today. It was a nice service [...]

In Clinton

by @ Wednesday, December 21st, 2005. Filed under Personal

I made it safely to Clinton. Got here around 2pm. The drive down wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be on my own. In some ways it was easier. This is when the iPod really pays for itself though. It would have been a much tougher drive without [...]
