Happiest Day of the Year

So apparently today is the happiest day of the year.  It is the start of the first weekend of my engaged life.  I think the study is pretty spot on.
I wish you Happy Happiest Day of the Year.

Officially Engaged

On June 19, 2008, I became officially engaged according to Facebook.

But the actual date was June 18, 2008.  I love you, Pat.
Can’t wait for what’s next, baby.

I’ll post some details soon…

Quote: “Favorite Number”

My uncle was staying with us this weekend so I got to hang out with my baby cousin, Connor (three years old).
The conversation goes:
“How high can you count?”
Connor: “8!”
“What’s your favorite number?”
Connor: “7 and 9!”
And then he had a mischievous smile on his face.

Worst Movie Title Ever?

I’m currently reading Why Smart People do Dumb Things.  The premise is pretty much what it sounds like.  It investigates how some smart people ended up making some bad decisions and how it all could have been prevented.  Granted, it’s not totally obvious sometimes when you don’t have a good idea or not making the [...]

But now, I want an online solution.  I want a [...]

Finishing strong

Usually, if you are about to leave a job, it’s hard to stay motivated.   Other than tying up any loose ends, it’s probably not a good idea to start something you can’t finish.
As my final days with kajeet approached, I seem to be more productive than I think I was in awhile.  I really [...]

Next move.

Today was my last day with kajeet.  For a year and a half, I’ve been a part of a rock star engineering team, experienced the start-up life, launched a number of services, and most importantly made some really good friends. It was cool to see our product on the shelves on Best Buy and hearing [...]
