LATEST NEWS:
- 2006-06-27: I've
updated!! It's been way too long, so go ahead and
commence with the teasing.
The neighborhood is shaping up quite nicely. Only
a few houses left to complete! We have some really
great neighbors, some of whom are moving soon for
various reasons. We are sad, but wish them well.
Once they move, we will have lived in the neighborhood
longer than anyone else.
I'm on my 13th year the same company (anyone I care
about already knows where I work) and it's going well.
I have a new position (since last year anyway) and I'm
now responsible for end user environment globally
(hardware & software standards, software
distribution, projects, etc. - about the only thing we
don't do is break/fix). It's the job I always
wanted, so naturally I love it.
I've traveling quite a bit for work recently. I've
been to Florida (again), the SF Bay area like 4 times,
and LA (Huntington Beach to be exact), and I'm going to
the SF Bay area again in July. I plan on taking
Dawnaelle & Sarek with me so they can visit Great
America and Marine World. Hopefully, that will be
the last of my work related travel for a while.
In motorcycle news, I went down last September. I
lost control avoiding a deer. It was the first
time in 12 years, and I wasn't hurt, so I don't feel too
badly about it. Some new body panels &
miscellaneous bits and the bike is back to awesome!
I also recently traveled to the new Miller Motorsports
Park in Utah for the AMA races. What a great
facility. It wasn't completely finished, so it
should be even nicer. I really want to go back
next year. I even got a chance to
ride on the track.
I recently bought a remote control helicopter (not the
easy-to-fly kind from Radio Shack, but a real, full
control heli). It's harder than it looks to fly.
I'm doing well as long as I'm behind it. I suck
when it gets turned around and is heading back toward
me. Still, I've always wanted one and it's loads
of fun.
Dawnaelle is working with drug and alcohol addicted
babies, and doing well at it. From what she tells
me, it's tough. So many people who want babies
can't have them or have trouble. Then there are
those who really want them to begin with but just can't
seem to stop having them. I can only imagine how
tough it would be to see that. My hat's off to her
for having the necessary compassion, patience, and love.
We finally got Dawnaelle's motorcycle registered.
It only took 2 years! I continue to be impressed
by it's comfort and fun factor. The EX-500 is now
my favorite bike to recommend to beginners.
Sarek is now just a few inches shy of 5 feet tall.
Did I mention he is just about to turn 9? He has
had some minor challenges in school, but is still doing
well. Dawnaelle & I are so proud of how loving,
thoughtful, and well behaved he is. He is
developing quite the personality as well!
Sarek is really into his remote control car (from
Santa). I upgraded it with a faster motor and it's
downright crazy fast now, not to mention fun. I
bought one for myself, but it's somehow just not as fast
as his. Must be because his is the Fast & Furious
Lancer Evolution model! :)
