  • Dentistry Update

    So, I am only around $1200 away from having all the funds I need to be able to get my teeth fixed up. I am not sure how I’ll bridge the gap yet. I am still waiting to hear back from my benefits company on what will be covered and what won’t. Once I know… Read more

  • Flickr Uploading

    Uploading a gigabyte of photos to Flickr is a slow process. I can’t wait until it is done. Who knew that 266 eighteen mega-pixel photos would be more than a gigabyte? Read more

  • Chatting Up Family

    I talked to my Dad on Facebook chat last night, Sabine on the phone, and my brother left a quick note on my Facebook wall. All in all, it was a pretty rare set of people contacting me. I don’t hear from my Dad often, not that I have made much effort to keep in… Read more

  • Meeting Frustration

    Lesson for the day: Meetings without agendas are a waste of time. Right now, I am working on projects for half a dozen different departments within the county, and all of them want more time, and none of them have any technical knowledge.

  • iPhone 4: Should I Really Get One?

    I was just thinking about the life of minimalism that I would love to live, and also my hatred of phones. I am definitely a fan of having what basically is a computer in my pocket, especially one that is connected to the Internet, but do I really need to get an iPhone? Does it… Read more

  • Weekends Without Money

    This weekend, I don’t have anything planned. I don’t have any client work set up. I don’t have any money I can spend. I think this is one of those weekends where I charge up my camera, look for local events and take some pictures. Though it can’t be an event that’s very far as… Read more

  • Teeth are Expensive

    Recently, I started going to the dentist now that I have benefits. It has been many years since I last sat in a dentist chair. It isn’t because I don’t like dentists, but instead because I could never make them a priority when I knew it would cost me hundreds of dollars every visit. Well,… Read more

  • Learning at My Job

    Don’t ask questions when working for the government. It only creates frustration. No one wants to teach. Just be quiet, keep your head down and do your work. If you want to learn something new, then research it and learn it yourself, or try to convince management that you need to go away on a… Read more

  • My First Tattoo

    Around two months ago, I decided I wanted to finally get my first tattoo. I have wanted one for over eight years now, and finally I’ve made it a reality. If you’ve been on my Flickr account, you’ve already seen some pictures of it. I got it done at Neo-primitive Tattoo and Piercings in Hanover,… Read more
