The cat hopped on my lap while I’m working on the computer.
Best cat ever.
I’m drinking a lot of coffee recently. I wonder how much is too much.
I’ve been frequenting a lot of non-starbucks places recently, and I think their drip coffee is better than sbux. I’m not a food snob by any means, but starbucks often tastes more bitter than other places.
Been quite busy, we’ve got four client projects that we’re juggling, along with our own projects (Tanga, Groupie Guide, and Voxy).
We’re also upgrading our company’s website—see a preview.
Plus I’m out there meeting new people / partners / clients frequently—means lots of trips downtown and lots of driving.
Luckily I enjoy what I do! It’s an exciting time in the industry. Tons of potential for small teams and the various tools I use make work enjoyable.
Dash is being a Lobster for Halloween. Expect pictures.
Problem with splitting my work week up into 4-5 hour days Monday – Friday, and 8-10 hour days on Saturday – Sunday is that the week never seems to end. It’s just a blur of baby, errands, and work.
Luckily, I love my work. Otherwise, I’d be miserable right now.
Here’s what my typical weekday has been like this past month:
- Wake up sometime between 6 and 7 am, depending on when Dash decides that he’s up for the day. Jessa usually wakes up a little bit before me and feeds him and gets ready for school.
- Jessa leaves for work at 7.
- I take Dash into the kitchen, put him in a chair somewhere, and start making breakfast and cleaning the kitchen and house.
- Generally, Dash gets hungry at 8 or so, so I feed him.
- Then Dash gets sleepy, so he goes down for a 45 – 60 minute nap. During naptime, I either also take a nap (if I’m sick), or I do other house things.
- If Dash doesn’t look sleepy, then I take him in the shower with me and we get all clean.
- By now, it’s around 10 or 11. We play and read a book.
- He might want one more nap. Depends.
- Someone else comes between noon and one to take over the Dash-watching duties.
- If I have a meeting downtown, I hop in the car and go downtown. Otherwise, I close the door to my office and work in there until 7 pm or so.
- Between 7 and 8, we eat dinner. Maybe watch part of a movie or a TV show.
- Bedtime!
On weekends, since I don’t get much of a chance to work during the week, I try to get in at least 10 hours of solid work in over those two days.
... and man, is he not pleased about it.
He’s got a shrill shriek. It’s sad, because you can tell he’s trying to be happy, but he’s plain uncomfortable. He wakes up more often.
We’ve got him a fluid-filled teething ring that can be put in the fridge, and he likes sucking on that.
Dash is 6 months and a week old or so. He’s an old guy!
If Jordan doesn’t bring me a beer soon, I’m going to smack him.
You can’t beat a good old summer nap.
I could go for an oreo cookie milkshake right now. Jack in the Box makes good ones. Hm…

I’ll be writing a bit there.
I concur, you can’t go wrong with a cheeseburger.
I realize that this post is ironic.
So I got my blood tests redone.
Back in Jan, I had total of 241, LDL of 151, HDL of 80, HDL/Index ratio of 3.0. Now, my LDL is higher than it should be, but I have a lot of good HDL, and my understanding is that it’s the ratio that’s important.
Now, I have HDL of 39, LDL of 146, for total of 206. Ratio is 5.3. My good stuff dropped in half, my bad stuff barely dropped at all.
My doctor said “keep up the good work, keep dieting and exercising”. That doesn’t seem right to me.
Just had a new nephew born: Charles Kelly McArthur
