The house of sick
January was not a pretty month for this household. Each of the kids got sinus infections, Noah had pink eye twice - once in each eye, at different times - and Daniel got pink eye as well. Emily caught strep, and then proceeded to give it to me, which is saying a lot because I never get sick, but when I do ---- it wipes me out. Luckily I had ( Read more... ) -
Christmas 2010 Wrapup
We ventured down to my parents house in Chesapeake on Christmas Eve, and all things considered, didn't run into much traffic. We timed things right around all the major bottlenecks (Beltway, Quantico, Richmond), except for an accident near Quantico where it looks like a car had spun out into the ditch.

redskins - yeah, I'm still a fan

Wow.
Let's hope Shanahan can give them the boost they need. Can you imagine what we could've done if had a kicker that didn't suck?
Oh, and next year is uncapped. And Snyder is rich. Should be an interesting off season.

first work day of 2010
So, all in all, the first day of work in the new year/decade wasn't that bad. Normal Monday morning telecon went fine, worked my way through various small tasks during the day, enough to keep my mind occupied and before I knew it, it was almost 4. That's always a good feeling ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
So, let's see, how did 2009 wrap up?
Hanukkah (the first part of Hannumas) around here, resulted in some nice presents. I got George Carlin's "sortabiography" Last Words, which is hilarious so far (this was a suprise gift - I didn't even know it was out!). Also picked up Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for the XBox, which is quite fun, centering ( Read more... ) -
