Upgrade Day
I’m typing this on my new apple keyboard. (It’s connected to my laptop, I just wanted to get a feel for it before I un-box everything. (Which I can’t do until I get home anyway.) It’s going to take a bit of getting used to, but I am already touch typing on it with about as many mistakes as my MS keyboard.
The whole 2-button-but-really-one button mouse thing is going to take some adjusting, too. seems to work okay, it just doesn’t “feel” right yet.

I think this is where I say something [awesome | cheesey] like:
“No power in the ‘verse can stop us.”
Rocket Launch
Last weekend was the Boy Scout Rocket Jamboree. Sunday was the day Cub Scouts and thier families could come out and fly rockets. Squiddo and I had a blast. (hehe) Here are a couple of photos and a video I took of our rockets:
It’s About That Time
Well I guess it’s time I posted something again. I’ve been busy with things and haven’t really felt the urge to post here. Maybe I should see about incorporating my Twitter stream into this page. Or scrapping the whole thing and using my tumble log instead.
Or not. This post is just an excuse to try out the wordpress app on my new iPad.
Happy Pi Day!
Hope you enjoy the video. It was created by a friend of mine.

About F-ing time. These “people” have been calling me at least once a week for the last 6 months, maybe even longer, I’ve lost track. I’ve NEVER given them any info on the few occasions where I did not let them go to voicemail. They’ve ignored repeated requests (and later demands) to be place on thier do not call list, and I’ve reported them to the Do Not Call registry multiple times. (All of my numbers are registered on that list.) I just wish it hadn’t taken annoying a senator to have anything be done about it.

I’ve been neglecting this space again, Haven’t I?
I’m not sure that’s going to change any time soon. I suppose I should post pictures of the boys, or some kind of content. Maybe a new recipe.
I don’t know, I think maybe I’ll just ramble on for a few more sentences and then hit publish. I’m going to go see Star Trek tonight, several people who’s opinions on similar topics I trust have said it is a good thing. I’ll find out for myself tonight.
These last few months have been somewhat hectic. Squiddo getting registered for kindergarten. Kraken turning one. Concerts, wedding plans (2 friends tying the knot this summer,) birthdays, etc.
Ok, I think I’ve rambled enough. I should probably get back to work.
