I know that I promised that I would start reading blogs more and commenting more while on administrative leave. I lied. I did not mean to lie, but I lied. I spent a full week barely looking up from my books while studying for my certification test. And next week, …
Because I’m at a point where I’m getting ready to start a new chapter in my life- after 8 years at my current company, as of May 3, I will no longer be employed there. I don’t know where exactly I’ll land, but I am excited about the possibilities. So …
It has been a busy Saturday morning. We’ve picked up poop, done some major shopping, started a large cooking project, and I’ve started a load of laundry and mowed the back half of the lawn. I’m ready for a nap, but instead, I’m getting this edition of “What I’m Reading” …

Happy New Year! I love that we use this time of year for reflection and goal setting. Okay, I try to do at least some of that year round, but I always love the idea of starting on a brand new slate. 2013, here I come. However, before you can …
I’ll be honest- I kind of put off putting this round up together on the hopes that the world would end, and I wouldn’t need to do the work. Plus, Friday was my birthday, and I had more important things to think about (Indian food and chai, OMG the chai) …
It’s Saturday! And at the time this goes live, I will be in a theater watching The Hobbit (non-3D version, as it gives C migraines). More importantly, I will have seen the 9 minute preview for Star Trek: Into Darkness. C and I are both geeks, and our geekiness overlaps …
