OMG! A year since my last post!

Dang!

Where has the time gone?

This time last year I had a baby on the way.  Her name is Serenity.  She is a wonderful addition to the family and I love her with all my heart.

We now have a second baby on the way.  He is due on the 26th of September 2010.  Serenity was born on the 15th of September 2009.  I was a slow starter but I am certainly making up for it now.

We have a few names being kicked around at the moment.  My choice this time as Leah chose last time.  Unfortunately Leah is definitely not keen on the name, Teal’c.  I don’t know why… Just kidding :)

In fact most things sci-fi related are out of bounds.

You may think Serenity is very sci-fi related and you would  be correct.  But I didn’t chose it so the name “Serenity” was acceptable.  I am happy.  Leah is happy.  Serenity is happy too.  The thing that is really cool is that Leah came by the name “Serenity” from seeing a movie poster.  The movie the poster depicted just happened to be based on a TV series I enjoy immensely.  The TV series being Firefly of course.  It is funny how things turn out sometimes.

Anyhoo, it has been a whole year since my last blog post, sorely overdue for some kind of update, hence the purpose of this post.

I was supposed to blog about my experience with Typemock.

I am supposed to be blogging about my experience with Lightspeed from Mindscape.  Just as an aside I just recalled my old BBS days and a friend of mine, Kenji, who ran a BBS using a application called Lightspeed for the Amiga.  Ahh… those were the days… :)

I am also supposed to be blogging about my experience with Silverlight Elements also from Mindscape.

I do have a project in the works in which I could try out all the above.  My only obstacle in the way is time.

In the very near future I should be able to allocate some time to this project, subsequently blog the results here and hopefully appease the generous people from Typemock and Mindscape.

Wish me luck…

  1. Good luck.. make sure you tweet when you have done it - so I know when to check it again :)

    Ahh the Amiga days.. we had an Amiga 500 - Workbench, AMOS Professional (a form of BASIC), and all the awesome games (Dizzy series) :)

    Such an awesome computer - just a shame it had a terrible future.

    Love the name Serenity - and it suits your little cutie!

    I am looking for a better host for a blog other than BlogSpot - and somewhere to host some web projects of my own. (Can't use the works Hosting for obvious reasons). Do you know of any that are .Net and free, and/or cheap?

    Take care dude.
