Here is the “To Do” list I made for myself for today: – check office vm (every 2 hrs)– reflection journal for class– bank– lunch w/ —-– finish marketing flier & e-mail to group for approval– make baby food?– f/u w/ potential client But here’s my “hidden agenda,” the one that isn’t written on my  […]

I don’t know about you guys, but it’s a month-plus in, and I am sick of 2010 already. It’s been a wild six weeks for our family: the hacker fiasco, a busted water heater, craziness at work (for both of us — and I’m not referring to my clients!), a death in the family, resuming  […]

The dust has all but settled after this past week’s Adventures in Hacking. The only remaining fallout has been that Facebook disabled my account on Tuesday and has yet to reinstate it.

Neither of us had so much as set foot in Austin before we pulled into town with a U-haul in mid-2000. We got a crappy apartment and I landed another temp job — this time in the resource development department at the Red Cross, where I was pretty much guaranteed to perform better than the  […]
