I think a lot has happened since my last update. However, I can’t really remember what’s happened because it’s been so long. Oops. I won’t wait as long next time.

I wish I could show you some pictures of our halloween costumes. However, I didn’t take any and Jody hasn’t uploaded them, fortunately I found this picture of me in my costume on the internet:


Yep, that’s definetely me

Edit: OK, Jody did end up posting some pictures in the Halloween gallery. Here’s a picture: of us. You may recognize Ryu and Chun-Li in the image as well.

Last week I made a surprise visit to one of our customers/evaluators at work. Mainly, the surprise was on my part; I got asked if I could go to Seattle after lunch and was on an airplane 4 hours later. Anyway, that was a lot of fun. I hung out with Loose Cannon. All in all a good trip.

Work has been pretty hectic lately. It’s one of those things I wish I could talk about, but that wouldn’t be appropriate. Hopefully I’ll start work on a cool new mini-project soon.

I’ve also spent a decent amount of time in and out of the clinic lately trying to figure out what the problem with my pancreas is. Here is the forumula for every visit:

  1. Wait
  2. Perform uncomfortable test
  3. Wait
  4. Results inconclusive
  5. Schedule another (more uncomfortable) test

Here is a summary of what all the doctors have told me in plain english: "Your pancreas is messed up. However, it’s not too messed up. We have no idea why."

To round things out, here is a rapid fire list of things I find interesting right now:

Karma Riot is making great progress too, but I’ll save that update for once we’ve passed our next milestone.

Have a nice Thanksgiving
