it has been a while.
well time has been a rare commidity the past month, after michelle gave birth to the twins free time is a thing of the past.
just an update to let you all know that i am still here - just need to spend some time and redesign this blog and get things rolling again!
all is well just tired and ready to sleep at a moments notice or what i like to call a sleep shark. if i stop moving i’ll fall asleep.
i really want this to work - i’d love to do web design as a full time gig. we shall see, with all the free time i have lately!
be back soon!

07.08.2008 - this just in the essential batman encyclopedia is in stores. go out and get your copy today to ensure you know all your dark knight facts. that is all.
we had a minor laptop scare last night. michelle opened it up and nothing, nada, nyet. so i had her reboot the machine. then the fun started, it would make it past the bios and start to load windows and freeze, several times. i went into safe mode. did not work either. it just hung. so i fished out the recovery cd, quite a feat seeing as the laptop is a good 6+ years old. i tried to boot from the cd, no go. so finally i opted to use the “boot from last know good configuration” option. which has NEVER worked for me in the past. ( i have been a computer guru for 14+ years). but lo and behold i got it to boot. wow. i was amazed.
now the laptop is running fine. i must say i am mighty impressed with this machine. it is a fujitsu series c laptop. 15″ screen 512mb ram 1.13 ghz p4 chip. running windows xp home sp3. the thing is great, best $1300 or so i have spent on a computer.
now if anyone is looking to give me a laptop i would like a macbook pro please. my 40th birtday is coming up and that would be a nice gift.

07.04.2008 - happy birthday to my second son! he is three today! july 4th is a neat day to have a birthday! happy birthday little guy!
i am going to need it.
mostly tired.
need sleeee………………………………..
07.03.2008 - check it out blizzard has announced that diablo 3 is in development. included is a 10 minute gameplay video. can’t wait.
obviously.
trying something new here. like the look. we shall see.
the website design is going slow. perhaps i have not the time to solicite new business.
with a pregnant wife and 3 kids time is a comodity right now - doing freelance at work is kinda a big no-no. i really enjoy it though. so i will keep at it, just slower. also i gave myself 2 years and it has not even been 1 yet. i want to redesign my site, yeah again. gotta test out the old skills.
check back and i will let you know how it is going.
on a side note i think i may look into wordpress designs, that is another option.
later

i guess i better get this webdesign business off the ground eh?
