Merry Christmas, 2007 edition

No comments

Merry Christmas! (says acedanger a day late…) Christmas at our house was very fun, and very busy, as most parents can probably say. Aaron had a ton of presents. He had so many presents that he actually got bored opening them! We took a five hour break and saved some presents for him to open [...]

I am a dork

No comments

That’s right, I’m a dork. The current ringer on my phone (link is to an mp3) is a sound from the World Of Warcraft game and can be found on WoWWiki. You gotta love those Murlocs! My wife hates it, I laugh every time my phone rings. If that isn’t enough, I registered emails for [...]

I’ve been trying to make use of the Shared Items in Google Reader and show them on my blog. I’ve tried a couple of different RSS widgets without success, until this morning. I found a widget that will display the feed correctly. It is called Google Reader widget and was written by James Wilson. The [...]

Second ophthalmologist opinion

No comments

Aaron had another ophthalmologist appointment yesterday. This was his second opinion that I talked about getting after our not so fun first doctors appointment. This doctor’s office was much more kid-friendly. When they had to dilate Aaron’s eyes, rather than have my wife and an office tech hold him down (like the first ophthalmologist did), [...]

So I told a couple of stories to Rich yesterday via IM and this morning he told me that those stories needed to be remembered so here I am, actively remembering the stories for all to read. [12:23] acedanger49: and Aaron has discovered his testicles! [12:23] Rich: okay…….TMI [12:23] acedanger49: “what’s in my testicles daddy?” [...]

Name for our second son

No comments

I don’t think I’ve written about it on here yet so here goes. Meri and I are about 80% sure that we are going to name our new son Eli. Aaron seems to like the name, he talks about baby Eli all the time. Meri and I frequently talk to Aaron about Eli and how [...]

DocSyncer: Update

No comments

This post is an update to my earlier post. The DocSyncer  website is showing document from both my work laptop (XP Pro) and my home PC (Vista something).  I never got a response from DocSyncer though. I wasn’t whole-heartedly expecting a response from them, given that I replied to a newsletter email address. I don’t [...]

Meri is pregnant.  We are having another boy. Today, we are babysitting an 18 month old. We just fed Aaron and Aidan and reality is hitting me on how the next year or two is going to kick my ass! Good thing I stopped doing the small company thing and started back with the corporate [...]

I got an invitation to DocSyncer four days ago. Two days ago, I finally got around to setting it all up. The setup includes downloading an application onto your desktop, logging into your DocSyncer account and giving the DocSyncer application access to your Google Docs account. I really like the idea of the service and [...]

Intermittent Exotropia

No comments

Well, Aaron has intermittent exotropia. Meri called me from the ophthalmologists office while I was at work and I quickly GTFO of (left) work; I don’t even think I said much more to my project manager other than “can I leave!” (which was more of a statement than a question). So the doctor said that [...]
