Charlotte and I spent the weekend in Indianapolis, hanging out with our friends Gabe (my fellow Crispy Gamer developer) and Brett (his wife). We drove all over the place, exploring neighborhoods, making jokes, nearly running over small children … the usual, you know?
We visited many apartments and houses … mostly houses, actually. I think Charlotte [...]
Sometimes We Walk Alone by Ankur Shah
My review
rating: 4 of 5 stars
Ankur Shah is not like me.
I don’t mean the fact that he’s of Indian descent and I’m of Anglo-Saxon descent, though that’s true. I also don’t mean that he’s studied the teachings of Gandhi and I haven’t, though that is also true. I’m [...]
Well, I’ve spent the past six weeks toiling away on a massive redesign of Crispy Gamer, and it’s finally launched. I’m really proud of what we managed to accomplish with it, especially given that our entire development staff was me (XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, Design) and my good friend Gabe (C#, SQL, ASP.Net, etc). We did [...]
I’ve taken it upon myself to enact two projects involving my personal appearance. The first, and most important, is the LOSE 25 POUNDS PROJECT. I weigh 213, which is the most I’ve weighed since I met my wife. We successfully dieted in 2006-2007, and I dropped down to below 180. At my wedding, I weighed [...]
… this is not a pornographic post, despite the topic.
Tonight I’m going to see The Vagina Monologues. Surprisingly, this is not related to Valentine’s Day, which we’ll discuss in a second. This event, rather, came about because a friend of ours was promoting the show. Charlotte’s seen it, and liked it, and I’ve heard good [...]
My wife and friends are all doing this on facebook, and I’ll be posting it there as well, but what the heck … might as well post it to ye olde blog too.

No, no they’re not.
Between the post about not having played Portal (which I’ve since rectified) and this post, I’m beginning to think that I should have a “shameful secrets” section on this blog. I mean, let’s be honest here … this is a pretty absurd admission. I barely even watch television, normally — an occasional “Iron Chef” or [...]
Man, Charlotte and I sent 2008 out with a bang. We got married, we had a big Christmas trip, and we threw a Caribbean-themed New Year’s party which almost FIVE PEOPLE attended (including us)! Clearly, we are social butterflies.
Alas, bad luck comes in waves, and one such wave crashed over us in the first few [...]
I am a lucky man.
