Today's dragging. Bad.
All of you people with camera phones should send me something to entertain me. Right now. Go! Yes YOU!
I've got a new plan for the way that I spend my personal time. There are a lot of things that I enjoy doing or that I need to do, that I never seem to [...]

I have the best friends ever. Truly. You guys are all fantastic. Thank you for all of your support, kind words, and sense talking.
In other news, I'm dead bored and really restless. So, despite being about 30 minutes shy of a full work day, I'm going to head home before I go crazy.
Driving home is [...]

Um… hey everyone. According to "LiveBrownie":http://sumeet.info/LiveBrownie/, I must be the hottest guy in all of LiveJournal. Or maybe they just wrote a really crappy application that can be broken even accidentally and especially on purpose. Nah, that couldn't be it. I'm just really hot.

It's sunny all week and now today, since we're planning on grilling outside, it's pouring rain and muddy everywhere. Thanks a lot.
Someone send me "something nice to look at":http://revjim.net/page/distractions/ to cheer me up.

The Grillin' and Chillin' event has been moved to tomorrow (Saturday the 26th).
It looks like there is going to be around 6 or 8 of us. Just right for a nice cozy gathering.

Jess' parents got us a new Grill as a late X-Mas present. Tomorrow (Friday the 25th), we're breaking it in and you're invited. I know it's short notice, so don't feel bad if you can't make it. But, if you can, show up around 6:30 with some meat and something to drink. Mike's going to [...]

damnit damnit damnit damnit damnit damnit.
Somehow I managed to forget the passphrase to my GPG key. Ugh. Well… looks like I'll be building a new one. Grrrrr. I imagine that means I forgot my SSH key passphrases too, right? Yup. Damn.
Okay… that's it. Anyone know of any security issues with Revelation? If not, I'm gonna [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen, really… does it get any better than this?
I was already working on my own little pile of code to allow a Rails ActionController to be run from cron. Additionally, in another world for another project, I was already working on a way to allow a Rails ActionMailer to *receive* mail. Well, it [...]

This past weekend was a little bit of everything.
We had a nice dinner Friday night with Jess' family.
Saturday morning we brought them to the airport (on time, despite Jess' mom's insistence that we were going to be late).
Saturday afternoon we went shopping with Mike and Lisa and then headed out to Ray Roberts Lake for [...]
