• Greetings from San Francisco

    So I’m writing this while I’m in San Francisco at JavaOne, so I won’t even get it posted until next week when I get back to an internet connection. Right now I’m at a Giants–Padres game at Pacific Bell Park. I wanted to come to the game, but it’s really cold and I don’t really…

  • Some People Call Me a Space Cowboy…

    (yeah) Some call me the gangster of love… I have no idea why I wrote that. It was just kind of running through my head. I don’t think I should go up to Greeley on weeknights anymore. I’ve been a zombie pretty much all day. I went up to watch the Kings–Avalanche game (the Avs…

  • Never Try to Outdrink a Sikh!

    Boy, do I need to learn not to let big Sikhs talk me into drinking too much! We had a lunchtime party to celebrate our 1.5 release yesterday. We went to Rio Grande in LoDo, where they make some fantastic margaritas. I didn’t have any breakfast, so I already should have exercised more caution. I…

  • A Girlfriend? Really?

    So I’m sitting here, watching the first game of the playoffs for the Avalanche, and they’re tied 4-4 with the Vancouver Canucks. I can’t even believe they’re having this much trouble – it’s insane! Hopefully they’ll pull it together in the next few minutes, here. It’s been a busy couple of weeks, what with choir…

  • Not a Lot to Report

    I finally got the old web sites redirected over here. Problem is, the new e-mail address isn’t working yet, as far as I know. Hope no one tries it – they won’t know how to get ahold of me. For those that are clever enough to check here, it’s still [email protected] for the time being.

  • On the Road Again

    Man, quite a month! Once again, I’ve gotten sloppy in my writing habits – but hey, at least I know one person’s been reading again. I took a little vacation last weekend – the first I’ve really taken since starting at Mirim – back to Oklahoma. I went in part to help with a retreat…

  • I’m No Doogie Howser

    So much for writing every couple of weeks. I guess I’ll never be as dutiful at typing in my electronic journal as good ol’ Doogie Howser was. But then again, I wasn’t a doctor at 16, and I’ve never had a girlfriend as hot as Wanda, either. Not that it much matters – I think…

  • Helmut

    This every two-to-three weeks thing seems to be about right. I end up with just the right amount for an interesting entry that way, as long as I remember to do it. After a couple weeks’ deliberation, I am prepared to announce the name of my Volkswagen Jetta. My brother Kent was the only other…

  • You Like Me! You Really Like Me!

    Funny how after months of inactivity, I suddenly have so much to write in just two weeks! Life does that, though. My problems with the Mazda were getting on my nerves so badly that I decided to borrow the money for a down payment from my folks and buy a new Volkswagen Jetta about a…

  • The Young and the Incompetent

    Well, I’m sitting here at work, my brain totally fried with 2 1/2 hours to go, and I thought to myself, “Self, why don’t you go and see how long it’s been since you updated your diary?” So I did, and much to my dismay, it has been yet another month of no writing activity!…
