Wow, what a fast weekend.  Seems like I hardly blinked and it was over. 
Saturday, I got up early for a karate tournament.  Didn’t do too badly, considering the 3 classes I’ve attended in the past 6 weeks.  Brought home trophies in both kata and sparring.  Came home, ate and watched the Gatti / Damgaard fight […]

Ugh, this is a bad week to get sick.  I went to bed Tuesday night feeling ok except for some nasty cold tremors.  I never really got to sleep.  By the time I woke up Wednesday morning, I had a temperature of almost 101, a sore throat, body aches, a headache and every time I […]

We traded in Monica’ old car today for a 2005 Mazda 6s.  6-speed automatic, V6, all leather interior, heated seats, Bose sound system, 6-disc in-dash CD changer, 17″ wheels, the works.  It’s a gorgeous titanium grey color with black interior.  I’ll try to get pictures up tomorrow

Ah, finally back in town.  Arizona was nice, and the meeting was extremely productive, but I’m very glad to be back home.  It’s the 20th of January and I figure I’ve already had 7 flights, thru 5 airports, staying in 5 hotels since the beginning of the year. 
This weekend, Mica and I are going car […]

The trip out to Pax River, MD was very productive.  The two meetings I went out there for went much more smoothly than I could have hoped for and things are well on track.  I can’t believe our first flight will be this year.  Of all the things I’ve done at work, the one thing […]

Ok, so Christmas, in summary.  Pictures available at here. Italicized numbers in parantheses below correspond to the pictures.

I’m leaving bring and early in the morning for Pax River, MD again.  I’ve got a couple of meetings out there Tuesday and Wednesday. Should be back sometime Thursday afternoon. 

I’ve upgraded the site to Wordpress 2.0.  Shouldn’t be much change (yet) if you’re just viewing the site, but writing comments and posts was significantly enhanced.  If you have any problems, let me know. 

Well, we’re back from Florida and it’s back to the grind. I plan on writing all about our trip soon, but I just don’t have the time to write about everything we did just yet. Needless to say, we had an awesome time though. We got through all of the Disney Parks, […]
