Tell me your secrets

It was a long day; my daughter got back from youth camp this afternoon, I got home from being in Raleigh at 2am, and we're all beat. So we had some fun with the cat.

And now I just need to share it so I never forget. =)

Merry Christmas 2014!

I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, from my family to yours. My wife found the most awesome card for my teammates at work and it is just too good not to share with everyone -- for those who are programmers or into IT, this …

So this year I'm going to be 38, which means that I've been collecting tattoos for 20 years. The biggest "rush" of ink has been in the last 5-6 years as I've actually been able to afford it, whereas before it was getting a piece done whenever I could spare …

Angela's First

I've been collecting tattoos for 20 years. In that time, Angela has never gotten a tattoo. Her sisters and her brother all have, but she was the last of the great holdouts. I'm pleased to announce that as of January 29th, that is no longer the case! Angela has lost …

Some changes...

The blog needed an updated look. I think I kinda like this new look. Much cleaner and sharper.

Dealing with a Sea of Backlog

I saw this on Facebook today and, thankfully, it's also on their blog. I've always liked the idea of "Inbox Zero" and have even gotten my inbox to zero a few times since I started (mostly)-seriously using GTD. Sadly, I'm not there anymore due to how crazy work has …
