Still Alive and With App

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 01:06:36 +0000

So about a month back I was going to post here but I never found time. The holiday season makes for a crazy schedule starting in October. I recently was looking into changing the site to something more static and I may still but, I did find a free wordpress app for my work issued iPhone. Now I won’t have to find time to sit at the pc and type up a whole big post. I am also working on adding a gallery of Collette photos. By gallery I mean all the pics we have taken of her in one place. We just got the pictures uploaded to picasa and now that they are all sorted I can maintain them much easier. Having them duplicated across 4 computers and 6 folders just wasn’t working any more.

This will hopefully be one of many updates to come including the story of how we got our HP mini netbook but, that is a story for another day. Below is my parting gift a pic of Collette sleeping during our thanksgiving trip to Wisconsin.

September and Aion

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 20:10:54 +0000

So, after getting a new position at work I have not really had much time to update the blog. It is September which means Collette is about to turn 2 and there is about 1 month left until we enter freeze at work. I was going to post about the Aion Closed Beta a month or so back but I never really got around to it. I do have a Legion that is a merger of my Guildwars play group and my co-worker’s Lineage 2 buddies. After much deliberation we cam upon the Legion name of Aeterna Lux which means eternal light in Latin. Long story short between setting up servers at work, playing the beta, and helping set up a new legion website, the chamber has fallen by the wayside.

What is coming up you ask. On the 13th Collette will be 2 and she wants a baby doll over all other things. This Sunday is the start of the week long open beta for Aion (we get to play with our legion buddies this time) and Aion releases on the 22nd. It is going to be a fun month all around and a fast moving one at that.

So, in the next several days while I am on vacation I am going to work on adding a more definitive Aion section to the site and I will be adding links to the legion. Other than updating the website I am just going to relax and be glad that after two months of crazy effort things are getting back to a more manageable flow with work and everything else.

I can’t really think of much else to say right now that would be exciting to anyone but me so I think I will work on the other parts of the site and get some more posts on the forum. Ok, the exciting thing only I really care about are I found out how to make my hosting service use PHP5 which let the auto update of wordpress run when it just broke and hung with PHP4 and they just removed the traffic quota on my hosting service so never will I risk having mass charges if more than the normal 6 people come to my site. I told you only I would care about that stuff.

Crazy time with Collette

Tue, 26 May 2009 01:18:27 +0000

So, after being in the new place for about two weeks and having a long weekend I have had some time to see how much Collette is growing. She is now showing fear towards strangers even if those strangers are her grandparents, aunts, and uncles. She spent the afternoon playing with her cousin and running around at my fathers house and the park just out their back yard. She was all excited to play on the slides and finally learned how to go down feet first rather than head first. While we were there we went to a covered slide and she was afraid to go down until her cousin went down then she was ready. As she went down I saw her start to hit the first bend when she stopped. I was about to go get her out when her cousin and grandpa encouraged her and she went down the slide. after I asked her if it was fun or scary to which she replied scary in a tiny voice.

We also discovered that she likes baseball well more half dropping the ball then putting it in a glove but still it is fun. I am thinking that I am going to have to get her a glove soon and well I know she will not be able to throw we may be able to roll it on the ground and just let her run around more with a glove on chanting “BASEBALL! BASEBALL!”.

Sorry that my post has no point but I just felt like writing about it after all if I don’t no one will.

Ready Set Get Back to Work

Mon, 11 May 2009 01:00:43 +0000

Well today is my last day of vacation for the move. I am glad I had the time off to get settled but I wish I had more time. It is also mother’s day and after only a week I learned that Collette can be quite a handful. So though I enjoyed my time off I am sort of looking forward to getting back to my routine.

I also got to play some extra Guild Wars this week. We discovered that getting a Flesh Golem is not that hard and a level 9 Golem is kinda cute even when the level 22 is a bit scary.

Also, Rik has asked that I post some guild pics so I will be working on that in the coming weeks.

That’s all I have for now I will see what I can get added later.
