Into the great wide open

May 31st, 2007 · 3 Comments · Photos, the kids

Bailey the Cat has only been outside a handful of times in his entire life. Recently, he has started standing at the back door staring at the screen. Christa thought it would be funny to put him on a leash and take him for a walk.

Thanks ABC, thanks.

I didn’t know it was over, until it was too late

May 28th, 2007 · 6 Comments · People, detroit, life, music, nightlife

I admit it, it’s my fault. I didn’t make it to the Detroit Electronic Music Festival (DEMF) at all this weekend. I feel like I owe an apology to a lot of people for plans made, and plans broken.
To Jason, Justin, Phil, Jeremy and others: you were right. Now that it’s over, I’m regretful [...]

Blank VMware Guest on Server Console

May 17th, 2007 · No Comments · geekdom, work

Note: if you are intimidated by geekspeak look away from this post.
I spent the better part of a few hours this morning trying to figure out why I could not get a virtual appliance to boot on one of my VMware Server boxes. I would start the guest OS, but would get nothing but a [...]

Monty doesn’t know what the heck to think about Sam the ferret. Sam moves though, so Sam must be someone to play with!

Ode to a queen size bed

May 14th, 2007 · 1 Comment · life, random thoughts, whatever

“My knees are hitting the wall. Move over, you’re taking up too much of the bed.”
“It’s good for you.”
“Will it put hair on my chest?”
“That and make you see better!”

Sometimes it’s the little things that piss me off

May 10th, 2007 · 3 Comments · How To Annoy Me, random thoughts, work

I need to write a nasty letter to the vending machine company here at work. They always seem to put the Butterfinger bars so high up in the machine that when the machine drops the them to vend, the candy bars inevitably break.
That’s almost as good as the time they put the pop-tarts all the [...]

Matt tastes like cake…

May 8th, 2007 · 2 Comments · wedding

Well this past Saturday was the first of two bridal showers. To my delight I had the opportunity to eat matt’s face. His crafty sister had managed to find some embarrassing third and fourth grade photos of Matt and I to have imaged onto the cake. Mmmmm……. vanilla.

Dirty Duty

May 8th, 2007 · 2 Comments · life, owning a home

This morning I knew exactly what had happened before Christa even said anything.
There was a gasp, a plop, and a scream to alert me that Christa’s engagement ring had ended up in the toilet.
Too much information? Don’t worry, I fashioned a hook out of a coat hanger while Christa kept watch on the bowl [...]
