Issues that are personal to me not related to work or tech

So Long Serco

Fri, 07 Oct 2011 – 21:58

I resigned my position at Serco two weeks ago today. I worked at there for 6 and a half years. In this time: I had two kids, deployed a project management and tracking application, developed a badge printing and issuance system to control access to secure areas, worked on an application to model, track, and [...]

Sun, 13 Jan 2008 – 14:16

This posting is a little late in the year but my current excuse is that I have been sick (fevers of 102) on and off. Most years I have laughed off making resolutions saying that I am resolving to not make a resolution. But this year I have come to the decision that if you [...]

Progress Report

Mon, 15 May 2006 – 8:45

First Night Home

Tue, 09 May 2006 – 8:35

Mary didn’t want to sleep last night. Perhaps it was the new house, maybe she slept too much during the day or it was too much excitement coming home from the hospital. Or it could have all been gas. Who knows? I doubt even little Mary does. We, foolishly, let her sleep until 2000 (part [...]
