Dear Diary

I was just browsing through some of our archives, and I realized that we’ve been posting here for over two years. Wow, it doesn’t seem like that long.
I think it will be really interesting to look back in a few years to see what was transpiring in our life at the time. [...]

Victory

And now, it’s Sunday. Today is a day for celebration.
Many people will chose this as the sole day to visit a church, and it will be beautiful, I’m sure. But as you’re eating your ham or turkey or whatever it is today, remember why we are celebrating. It’s not just a [...]

Not a Sermon, Just a Thought

Anyone remember those commercials from the 80s for The Book? I always wondered what the heck it was…like was it just the Bible or was there additional stuff in there?
Today is Good Friday. What makes it so good? Well, it’s really what happens on Sunday that makes it good (or [...]

QOTSA

So we went to see Queens of the Stone Age at a local club called the Norva. I didn’t really know many of their songs, but a couple of friends were going so we decided to tag along.
The show was on Sunday which made Monday a great day at work. They put on a [...]

Gardening at Night

I tilled up an area in our backyard this past weekend in anticipation of planting some seeds for our very own vegetable garden. We’re planning on planting tomatoes (yes, I know they are a fruit), cucumbers, green peppers, and maybe some squash. I know Monica wants to experiment with carrots too, but I’m [...]

Can’t Believe the Suckage

Boy, my NCAA tournament bracket is really taking a beating. Tons of big upsets this year, but my final four are still alive (although Wake Forest is about to lose in double overtime). If I ever win a pool, I think it will be a sign of the end times.
And the Hokies got [...]

NIT-rific

I’m sitting here listening to the VT-Temple NIT game on the computer since it’s only on ESPNU; we don’t get that channel (yet). It’s the second half and the Hokies are up by seven in Blacksburg.
Man, it sure brings back memories of the last second Tech win over New Mexico State in 1995. [...]

Typical Weekend

Pretty busy weekend for us as we started out having dinner with family to celebrate my uncle’s birthday on Friday night. We went to Frankie’s, a local rib place. I love me some good BBQ.
Then on Saturday, I got up early to meet my Dad at our house to do some yard work. [...]

Phone Blogging

I finally added a moblog to the site. It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for awhile, but I never got around to it until now.
I decided it was a good time to learn perl so I wrote a script to periodically check an email address for an email from my phone, get that [...]

Weather Flip-Flop

It was 70 degrees on Monday. It was 24 degrees this morning.
What’s up with that?
