Today was a great day! We woke up at 4:30am, grabbed our backpacks and headed down to the airport. We checked-in with no problem and made the first flight out to DC which went wheels-up at 7:20am. Jen and I sat in 10C & 10D – the best row in coach! It was a nice [...]

I did a little research on activities for our trip to DC tomorrow and found some good food reviews.  I concentrated on the Georgetown and Dupont circle area.  After work I went home and then drove up to a bowling place off of Cobb parkway near Dobbins AFB to meet Jen for a work-related social [...]

Today we had our book club meeting hosted by Lisa. This month’s book was ‘Microserfs‘ by Douglas Coupland. I personally liked this book quite a bit. The book club wasn’t a bit turnout. It was just Jen, me, Katie, Chris, Lisa, and Alan. Alan has a gigantic fish tank that he showed us. We had [...]

Today I got to participate on a conference call with Gartner to talk about Natural & DBMS.  It was pretty interesting and educational.  It’s nice to expand my base of knowledge and do things other than just straight development. The whole gang and I (Bob, Alex, Casey, and James) went to lunch today to a [...]

After waking up early today we had an ‘eggie’ for breakfast then to the grocery store to get some supplies. Jen packed up a picnic lunch for us and then we headed out. We drove up to Jen’s parents house to pick up Chloe and then drove a couple of hours north to DeSoto Falls. [...]

Jen went to the gym this morning for her weight lifting class and then went shopping with Katie afterwards. I spent pretty much all day working on MS Money stuff while Jen was hanging out at her parents house. Eventually she came home. I had also finally hung up the seagrass bullitent boards in the [...]

It was a ‘work from home’ day for me today.  I was on conference calls most of the day.  At lunch time I went to Unezono to have lunch with Katie, Chris, Scott, Jan, and Jen.  After lunch we all went to the accountant to do our yearly tax thing.  It’s always so stressful for [...]

Delta’s bankruptcy plan was unveiled today.  They are basically awarding a cash portion and a stock portion based on your 2006 earnings.  This is pretty crummy for me since I was only with Delta for about six months in 2006, so my awards are half of what they would normally be.  But it is pretty [...]

Around noon today Jen and I both went to the dentist – Jen likes the one I go to over by my office.  Afterwards we went home.  Jen worked from home on her laptop upstairs and I worked from home on the desktop downstairs.  Later Jen got bored with work and started looking at houses [...]

This morning Jen made salsa and cookie pizza fruit things. Later she left to go to Katie’s house to help prep for the party tonight. I went over to Hooters to meet up with Chris, Clint, and Clint’s future father-in-law. We had lunch and then went over to Clint’s house to watch Basketball. Erin’s dad [...]
