Being the Master of the Universe

Posted on March 31st, 2008 in Insights

Long long ago, back before the earth’s crust cooled and when wheels were square, I was a Ksh Master of the Universe. I would write scripts that did the most wondrous things for systems administration. True, it wasn’t nmake, but then again, what is?
Those halcyon days of yore came back [...]

Servers out, elbow recovering, work progressing

Posted on March 27th, 2008 in Insights

Morning,
Yesterday there was a mega phone network outage where my servers reside…so I had to do local work instead of online. Wah. Today is major catchup day.

Posted on March 26th, 2008 in Insights

Morning!
March is almost over, can you believe that! Soon I’ll have to start planning for Camp Ling. Last year’s theme was Naruto; I think this year will be Youtube and creating humor videos (as well as the usual academics, science, karate, etc).
And speaking about karate! Yesterday was so utterly superb for me [...]

National Chore-Free Day For Mothers, April Fools, Featured Posts, oh my!

Posted on March 25th, 2008 in Insights

Morning all,
Yesterday was most productive in tons of ways. Family-wise, got the kids to the gym, did the circle walk with them, talked about superficial friendships and why superficial people sometimes seem to get an edge over the rest of us, etc. Kids are back in school today.
Workwise, I was a tornado. [...]

Holiday stress, pushups, Twitter rants, Ikea and more

Posted on March 24th, 2008 in Insights

Morning,
I’m ‘way out of condition. During the summer, I could knock off 50 pushups with no problem. I have to get back into that. And during yesterday’s circle walk, I was chatting with my kids and realized one problem I had with sparring; I still mentally think, no proactive head contact; hence, [...]

Breaking your boundaries, Twitter rants and more

Posted on March 22nd, 2008 in Insights

Yesterday’s martial arts was truly an eyeopener. I’ll write more about it over at AskOwlbert, but in a nutshell, I got pummeled to the point where choosing to stop was more attractive than 39 candy bars to a toddler…but I kept on going. I’m feeling much better this morning (I’m aching so much [...]
