On Wednesday Sydney decided she wanted to spend the day with me while I ran some errands. The first stop was SuperCuts downtown where she met Sherri, the woman that’s been cutting my hair for over 12 years now. Then we went for a walk outside since we were downtown in Chicago. Sydney told me […]

. This past Saturday we didn’t know what to do with the boys. The weather wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great. We had spent the previous weekend at the mall since the weather was so nasty, but didn’t feel like being indoors again. So while we were all at breakfast (our Saturday tradition now after […]

Facing Your Fear Head On

  Probably the greatest fear I’ve had for as long as I can remember is speaking to a group of people (large or small). Just being that center of attention with all eyes on you has always caused me very deep discomfort. In fact, when I had speech class in high school I would actually […]

For the second time this year, I was interviewed on an industry podcast that I listen to every week. This has been a big year for just doing the things that usually freak me out and bring me to my knees. I was interviewed earlier this year about something else on the same show, but […]

On Saturday we decided to try again getting some photos of the boys as well as an updated family photo. They boys were GREAT and just seemed to love not only being outside, but playing with leaves (a new experience for them).  You can see the best of them on SmugMug.

Over the years I have received many questions like “What is a good camera to buy?” or “What computer would you recommend?”, or even “Why do you always look so handsome?”. OK, not the last question but you get the idea. People ask me because I’m a nerd, and I’m always reading reviews and tech articles. […]

Up and Down the Wall

By on September 16, 2008 in Text Post, Video Post with 0 Comments

Although we could have walked up to the wall, I’m glad we didn’t. It was a pretty long walk, and even once you’re on the wall it’s a lot of walking and at times on very steep angles. So, we took a cable car up on one side, walked a couple of hours to the […]
