New ‘puter
Went out to “buy apples” this morning and returned home with a new 27″ iMac. Needless to say, Heather was pretty shocked. I’ve always relied on whatever work has supplied me and it has sufficed, but I’ve never been able to be perfectly happy with whatever solution it was – hard drive too small, graphics card too crappy, monitor getting long in the tooth, etc. No…

2015 Year in Review
2015 surpassed 2014 with ease. Not a particularly high bar, but I’d go so far as to call it a good year. Nobody too close to me passed away and everyone generally seemed to get healthier.

Since it had filled the wound like a…

Three weeks later
Spent the week in DC for work. Good times and silly weather. Progress is really slow at this point. I’m still probably a few weeks from being able to shave and really see what’s going on. Yes, that’s three weeks of mustache progress pictured. I did say from the outset that I don’t grow facial hair so get off me. Today is the last day without teeth…

Christmas Lights
We did ’em! I forget why we didn’t last year, but we didn’t. Spent a few hours yesterday messing around with the ladder and got ‘er done. Didn’t do our highest peak because it’d involve walking on our wet, degraveling shingles – I got up there for a short minute and wanted to crap myself. Either I have a fear of roofs or ours is…
