House Update
I still hate painting, but Jen and I are slowly getting there.
I'll post before/after pictures of the house in the next couple of weeks.
I'm staying very busy with work (big implementation that goes live on 8/1) and coaching the running team. What little spare time I have seems to go into doing stuff around the house, whereas I should be trying to rest/relax a little.
Owning a home is a hell of a lot of work!

it's been a couple of weeks since we moved to the new house, so i figure it is a good time for an update.
here's an update: i hate painting!
other than that, things are going well -- we're slowly getting unpacked, settled, and our furniture delivered. the new living room furniture came last week, the bedroom furniture (chest, dresser) is next week. we can actually finish unpacking then.
we love the house -- especially clancy. he's getting used to it and once we fence the back yard, it will be so nice to be able to let him out without having to actually go walk him every time.
i'm learning that owning a home is a hell of a lot of work. i suppose that yard work wouldn't be so bad if i weren't trying to stack it on top of painting, unpacking, etc. i feel like i haven't really had a weekend in several months, mostly because i haven't.

ok, time to shut down...
next time i post, we'll be in our new house!
i may actually post from the blackberry if i have time.. we hired movers, so it's not like i should be busy or anything, right? :)
in case comcast screws up (like they always have in the past) and i don't have service again by tomorrow, have a good holiday weekend everyone!

Make The Pie Higher
I think we all agree, the past is over. This is still a dangerous world. It's a world of madmen and uncertainty And potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked Is our children learning? Will the highways of the Internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked? They misunderestimate me. I am a pit-bull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist. Families is where our nation finds hope, Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family! Knock down the tollbooth! Vulcanize society! Make the pie higher! I am the Decider!
* this Haiku poem is composed of Bush quotes and was arranged by Washington Post writer Richard Thompson

i love it when business answering machines say they will return your call in 24-48 business hours.
do you think they realize that means 3-6 days?

if you want to do something really nice for a friend of mine, my coach from last season is participating in a 100-mile cycling event to raise money for leukemia and lymphoma research.
his name is tim and he's a spectacular guy. he teaches special education students in our public school district.
i'm hoping to steer him a few small donations (they build up -- believe me -- you wonderful folks helped me considerably last season) and even if it's $5 or $10, that will make a difference.
he has to raise $3700 (his goal is $4400) and i'm hoping that i can get him closer to that amount by steering him a lot of little donations (a few bigger ones are always harder) and i hope you can help.
it only takes a few minutes, and like i said, even if it's only $5, those little donations build up quickly. besides, it's tax-deductible.

if you decide to do this, please leave a comment in my post here so that i can thank you personally.

what is with people transposing years lately?
i keep seeing people write 2007 as 7200, or 2006 as 6200.
wtf?!

The Hokey Pokey (as written by W. Shakespeare).
O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke,
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from Heavens yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.
