Today my “Secret Project” is no longer a secret project! I’ve been working on this little side-project for months now, writing and writing and writing long-form articles and how-tos and segments and putting them all together offline and then building out the perfect design for it all, and finally, [...]

It’s getting colder. Not that I mind – I tried on my winter coat for the first time since last year’s cold – the one I had left at my parents’ because it was one of the many things in my arms when I fled there in [...]
sense :: sight // sparkling streetlights
I know I keep saying that I’m having big weeks, but this week was no exception. It was kind of a long, mundane week (except for weigh-in at the office: I’m down about 15 lbs from where I started at the beginning of the office “Biggest Loser” contest!) until everything [...]
sense :: hearing // Nelly Furtado – All Good Things (Kaskade Remix)
It’s getting colder outside and I love it. I’ve already made full use of my investment in some long sleeved dress shirts, and I’m definitely looking forward to breaking out my woolen coats, both long and short, and feeling the chill air of the [...]
sense :: hearing // Kaskade – Angel on My Shoulder
David was curious what I spent a lot of my time this weekend doing, and since I wrote my last entry while I was in the middle of if, I didn’t really wrap up what I’d been up to. In short, this was one of those [...]
sense :: taste // Oscar Blues Ten FIDY Imperial Stout
Big week – lots of writing to do for freelancing gigs, and big things happening at the day job. On the up-side though, at the end of the week I’ll be in a much better position to keep pushing forward. I just need to get my [...]
sense :: hearing Trey Lockerbie – Prove Me Wrong (feat. Madi Diaz)
So I’m putting myself on a somewhat regular blog update schedule. People only read when they know they can reliably get new content, and while I love blogging my biggest problem has always been providing new content regularly as opposed to whenever i have [...]

Last week was food week over at Lifehacker, and I picked up a whole world of tips that hopefully will prove themselves useful now that I’m doing a lot more cooking. One article that I think is worth sharing but that I already pretty much know and love and [...]
sense :: hearing // Everything But the Girl – Tempermental
This one’s been brewing for the past couple of weeks; I hadn’t told anyone because I didn’t want to jinx it, but the paperwork finally came through just this afternoon. I have a new client I’ll be writing for! Want to know who it is?
This [...]

Well, among other things, the election is over (with stupendously happy results), I had a nerve wracking but overall positive trip to the doctor, and now I’m looking forward to another major milestone: World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King comes out this coming Thursday!
I’m a dork, I [...]

So there I was, sitting at the office, grumbling to myself about how tired I was and how much I want to go home, and then I decide to check my email. I see this (click to embiggen):
Which led to the predictable shock and awe. I had to leave – [...]
sense :: hearing // CSS – Let’s Make Love and Listen to Death from Above (RAC Remix)
This isn’t the first day I’ve come here, opened up the editor, and thought desperately about what I should say. There’s a lot to cover, if I wanted to do one of those historical-type posts, going back to the [...]
sense :: hearing // Yeasayer – 2080 (Black Dominoes Remix)
For anyone interested in hearing what I’m hearing:
I just moved mail hosting (and I think inadvertently some hosting functionality) over to Google (and subsequently got Google Apps) for a few of my domains. Let’s see how that goes. If there’s one thing that’s bothered me to [...]

This is probably one of the best Penny Arcades in a long long time. And that’s saying a lot, because I usually think they’re hilarious. Click the image to embiggen – I’m sure you can’t read the text at this size. The worst part? It’s a true story.
In other news, there’s [...]

So the new boss starts on Monday. I don’t know whether I should be frightened or excited. Either way, I’ve been kind of blase about the whole thing. Possibly because I’ve been more and more disenchanted with my boss lately – it’s not my job, I don’t mind the job so [...]
