Updates, Travels, and Success

Well….it’s been a fairly long time since I have updated this page. Lots has been happening I guess. So here are all the updates I might have posted here….had I actually been a good blogger.

Chicago:
I spent a week in the Chicagoland area this summer visiting family and friends. It was great to see everyone…there was much drinking and it was VERY hot while I was there. Also…as an added bonus…I ended up in a hotel room with a couple next door screaming all night. Not that kind of screaming…it was the I’m leaving you here kind of screaming. It wasn’t exactly a rest filled vacation.

Fairbanks, AK:
Yup…I spent a week in Fairbanks, Alaska this summer. The sun never went down…which really screws with ones sense of time after a while. It’s absolutely beautiful there. I would love to go back…in summer….because when an Alaskan tells you that -40F in winter sucks, someone like me would probably struggle to top that description. I also noted on several occasions that someone with my set of skills would be hards pressed to make any sort of living there. Sadly…I did not spot any moose.

Motorcycles:

I want one…and plan on getting one next riding season. It should be one of these if you’re looking to buy me a gift.

Code!
I have successfully gotten my first OSX and iPhone apps running. It is all my own code. I still have quite a bit more learning to do but, seeing as I knew next to nothing about computer programing 6 months ago, I’m pretty excited about this step in my learning curve. Apps and downloads coming soon.
