Kids are up and I'm Digging stories. I didn't think of it before, but it's a great way to get exposure to your blog... so Digg.com everyone

Just got up from a nap. Now it's time to finish cooking dinner. Good ol' sphagetti/meatballs

I'm finally understanding http://identi.ca and http://laconi.ca - very cool cross-domain features.

I didn't realize Runescape got a face lift. It actually looks like a great FREE game. http://ping.fm/oJbzU

Eating Thanksgiving leftovers for lunch at work. It smells sweet! Too bad no ones around to salivate from my food! :(

In the office the day after Thanksgiving. Very quiet, but traffic was a breeze. Even found parking in a lot where is normally full by 7am.

Ok; time to eat! Enjoy your food all, I know we will. I'll post pics later.

Finished cook, trying to get everyone together. I wonder if I have enough energy to enjoy the rest of the night. ;)

I'm supposed to bake a ham and mac n' cheese. I need to hurry up and start! :-))

Do we get extra kudos for posting on holidays? Anyway- Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Ok, the work day is finally finished. Time to head home and rescue my wife from the kids! "Tarzan to the rescue!"

At the #hospital w/ all our kids the day after Monica's birth. How sweet!

#labor updt: I'm transferring pictures to my laptop so I can just have a card full of THIS event. It's taking forever! Hurry up technology!

#labor update: Blackberry network is up and running... what a relief. Wife is still doing good.. we're joking around and having a good time

#labor update: They just gave Tina pitosin to induce the labor. So; we're making some great progress.

Tina is doing fine with her #labor. She's about 4 centimeters and just trying to rest up. The #hospital is full; trying to find us a room.

Back at the #hospital and the wireless is up and running. Blackberry service seems to be out (work-related) so I'm posting from the laptop.

Answering a ton of questions at the #hospital. What if she was in labor? Would I have to answer their survey!?

At the #hospital, getting Tina plugged in and prep'd. We can clearly hear the baby's heartbeat.

My wife's water broke; we're getting ready to head out to the hospital.

Just finished my presentation. A bit nervous, but happy it's over!

Made it to my desk... Wow! What a trip. The only annoying part is explaining to ppl over and over again, what happened!?

Made it on the train. I sprained my foot so I'm limping to work today. Fun times! ;)

4GB mem install was a ttl fail. Got some IOMMU error with bios once the kernel tried to load. Working w/ 3GB right now. I have wrk 2 do.

Getting ready to seat my brand new 2 GB memory cards into my motha' board. So excited! A total of 4GB - running strong!

Just sent my boss an email about maternity leave. The wife is soon ready to POP and I totally forgot about this part of preparation!

Finally got some more pics of my family on Flickr. http://ping.fm/veiCN

At a really nice park w/ the family. It's got a big wooden castle structure - amazing!

Upgrading to VirtualBox 2.0.4! After the new kernel update it's been quite an adventure w/ my video drv and vbox.

Working on fixing my nVidia drivers after the latest kernel update.

WoW - BwR is full!? I'm shocked.

In the process of passing
Atlantic Station.

I'm finally free from my 2-hr meeting and I'm headed home. Yippie!

OMG!!! This meeting is already at 1 1/2 hour and it can easily go another 1/2. Someone shoot me!

Listening to http://boagworld.com about web standards. Awesome podcast, check it out.

Gas at $1.89/gal, feels like we out of a resession (sp), kind of.. I'll take it where I can get it! ;)

Intense work day today. Besides work I'm seriously thinking of a podcast idea. W/O knowing what it is, how many think it's a bad idea!? :D

I heard on TWiT that Obama might create a CTO position in gov. I think I need to read up on his policies. Looks like is the age of tech!

Downloading some WotLK wallpaper to show some love at work! I won't be at the stores at midnight - I'm too old for that kind of socializing

World of Warcraft realms and web site are down! What am I to do!? This is totally cuttin' into my chill time. Argh! KKKHHHHAAAANNNN!

I just nominated ping.fm in the @mashable Open Web Awards. Nominate here: http://ping.fm/0PGx9

I was just reminded by another project manager how the "customers are always right". It really pissed me off, but I'll have to deal with it

We're going to a friend's house for a late-night playdate. Yahoo! The kids are up late tonight!

At my local Pepboys getting my rear passenger tire patched. I wonder how much eWeek I can catch up on? ;)

On the Django site learning about this cool framework. Python apps, here I come! Thanks @muhuk, @TooL

At TacoBell w/ the family. I'm finally gonna get a Grande Meal. Oh the little things in life. :)

I usually work from home on Mondays, but I have to come in for a meeting. Farfignutton!

Preparing for a briefing I need to give my boss' new boss. Ha-ha, Microsoft Word - don't fail me now!

Not running late today, on the train catching up on some linux podcasts.

Neat! Just just =SUBSTITUTE function for Excel. I love functions.

I want to start creating apps/web apps for linux. Where do I start? Is it Python or Mono?

On the bus, on my 9am meeting. Had to End call cause it was tough to hear. Oh well; back to FLOSS Weekly.

Running late, daughter had a potty-run 2/4 stops. On the train listening to CNet cast.

Just finished, yet another successful workgroup meeting. Yippie! Minutes are stored on a wiki, very handy to NOT have to type twice.

The night wouldn't be complete w/o an Obama blog post. "Obama Takes it All!" http://ping.fm/hihBM

Just got my lunch. So reluctant to buy from the cafeteria. I ended up with Tuna Salad sandwich. Bon Appetite!

The day is going by too quickly. I need to get a handle on my priority tasks. :(

I just found out one of my coworkers (older lady) plays Bejeweled 2. What!? Old ppl are gamers too, I never would have thought.

A coworker just gave me some Excedrin. Let's see how the rest of the morning pans out! Way to go drugs!

Work is gonna be CRAZY. I still have a headache, tons of stuff to do since I missed work yesterday and I have to BUY lunch. Good grief!
