I got handed these at work, free. While I am a big fan of video games, I’m choosing not to play them (in the hopes that I mightsomehow find better ways to spend my time). Are you interested? Drop me a line if you want them, and I’ll mail to you. I’m serious about this.

The one down note from today – one of Justin’s drives just up and checked out. He spent all of today trying to recover data, with no success. The kicker was, not five minutes prior to this happening, we were having an informal group discussion on what steps we would be takingto set up an…
For some reason, Justin decided at work today to call me “Ribs.” Out of nowhere. We were just talking shop, and he decides he wants togive me a nickname, and that nickname is “Ribs.” Before I know it, everyone else is chiming in on how they think it’s a great name, and every fucking person…
Today is officially Dave’s birthday. However, his big plans are to get folks together for some hard-core minigolf. There are a few courses that he recently discovered (which aren’t open for business just yet), so we’re holding off on the golfing part. But tonight, Justin and I went out for some sushi with Dave at…
God DAMN, sometimes this blog takes a lot of time. Just got done updating the pics from today, as well as the pics from the Gallery Hopping, last Friday. It’s not so much prepping the images and cropping them and whatnot… it’s just recapping everything, and adding thoughts and commentary. Sheesh. I’ve been at this…
I spent a good few hours browsing for things, and ended up getting a crapload of stuff. I’m looking forward to getting into more of a reading mode again. I got a good mix of things – fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and some really interesting DVD’s. On the way back, I got a Mocha from Starbucks….
Without an alarm, I jolted awake at 7:30AM. I was all over the place this morning. Drove to work to get my check, went to Target, dropped off my movies, went to Stanley’s, and was able to get most of my busywork done by 10:00AM. A quick shower and some puttering later… I was out…
Whew! I’ve gone through a lot of the images from yesterday, and am working on updating yesterday’s entry. Sad to say, I’ve got nothing for today, but check out yesterday’s images – hopefully, that will make up for the lack of content here.
While the meeting itself went on throughout the day… sadly, no actual action was taken. Nothing was actually decided upon. Today, I slept for a good part of the day. While I did wake up early, I went immediately to the couch with a pillow and my down comforter. It’s been cold and grey outside,…
At 1/Quarterly, I met up with Justin, Dave, and Camellia (who was in town for a conference). Also ran into Rob, who I found out a while ago also knows a lot of the folks related to the event. Plans were for us all to meet up at Beechwood, and grab a few drinks. And…
Steps leading up to the 1/Quarterly space. I’m glad I wasn’t drinking prior to this.

The Version>04: invisibleNetworks convergence brings diverse groups together to share,…
As we walked into the restaurant, I noticed that the store next door was suddenly open. The storefront had been covered up for weeks, and just this morning… as I walked to work, it was uncovered. So tonight seemed to be the grand opening – some kind of clothing store. After dinner and some lounging…
Our next stop was to be Lobby Gallery. I though it was fairly close, and within walking distance… so we ended up hoofing it again. We meandered our way to the general spot, but had trouble locating the actual building. We wandered around in the cold drizzle for what seemed like an age and, out…
