Another stressful day at work, but on the plus side I got to tear down a bunch of old systems that I had grown to despise. Yay! Susan and the kids were sick with head colds. Watched some Desperate Housewives and played The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom. I slept on the couch, not because I was in trouble, but because I wake Susan up at night and she needs her sleep.

Work was stressful, we launched a new web site and there were a lot of fixes, changes, and additions that had to be made. Didn't get them all done, but was exhausted nevertheless. A night of beer, Legend of the Seeker, and Dragon Age: Origins made everything better.

1. Susan went out for 5 hours or so and I stayed home with the kids. They were really good, especially considering that the weather sucked and we had to stay inside most of the day.
2. During Sophie's nap, I kind of passed out on the couch while Rainer watched cartoons. I awoke to Rainer, sitting on my shoulder, blowing into my ear.
3. We saw a raccoon (it was apparently the first real raccoon they'd seen).
4. After they went to bed, Susan played D&D Online with me. I rolled fighter, she rolled wizard. I had a great time... We'll see if she wants to play it with me again.
5. Read some of The Furies of Calderon.

1. Susan went to Zumba in the morning.
2. I went out, alone, to play Starcraft: The Board Game for a few hours during the day. I played The Overmind, renamed creep "Soylent Purple," and had a damned good time.
3. Won the raffle for the board game, so walked away with almost $100 worth of swag.
4. Watched some Desperate Housewives with Susan.
5. May have convinced Susan to play Dungeons & Dragons Online with me... Only time will tell if this works.
Sunday, 3-7-2010 - Friday, 4-23-2010
It's been a busy 7 weeks and I haven't had the motivation to update the blog until now... So, here goes:
Education
- Strongly considering going to grad school in the Spring 2011 term to get an M.S. in either Media Arts and Science or Human-Computer Interaction
- Considering moving to the Broad Ripple or Lawrence areas to make the commute to IUPUI less intense
Gaming
- Continued playing Dragon Age: Origins... Still haven't finished it
- Played and beat Fortix
Health
- Found out that dad has Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (AVRC), which basically causes your heart to randomly stop working
- Dad got a defibrillator
- I got a blood test to determine whether I have AVRC (since it's a dominant genetic trait, there's a 50% chance)... No results yet, though
Reading
- Started reading The Furies of Calderon, which Lee Cherolis bought me for Christmas.
Social
- Met Zankruti Mehta for the first time.
- Met Jillian Bull for the first time.
- Started hanging out with Steve Jendraszak for the first time since high school
- Met Lindsey Jendraszak for the first time
- Birthday parties! Rainer turned 4 and Sophia turned 2. Birthday included fireworks, green and blue cakes, and lots of friends.
Tradeskills
- Learned how to make beer
- Made a batch of amber beer
- Learned how to tailor
- Made a cape (pics forthcoming)
Work
- Work has been super busy, which is partially why I haven't been updating the blog
- Finally got a second IT guy... Hopefully work will become less busy as a result
