Hiatus

Approximately 365 days after my last post I have returned. Life continues to challenge, confound, surprise: we celebrated the birth of our second child this year (another girl); I took a new job; I have failed to properly maintain personal relationships; I have aged another year.

For my thirty-first year I have a series of resolutions:

    Make my family the priority
    Keep in regular contact with my friends (both near and far)
    Post regularly
    Write a decent short story
    Write five good poems
    Write five bad poems
    Purchase flowers for my wife no less than 12 times
    Visit my brother
    Take my wife out on no less than 12 dates
    Take my daughters out on no less than 12 dates
    Enjoy the company of my parents regularly
    Write a compelling web application in Ruby on Rails
    Organize the IT Guild into a formidable collection of personalities and talent
    Finish no less than eight novels
    Attain Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer
    Attain VMWare Certification
    Volunteer my time to a charitable organization
    Teach my children how to be kind and generous
    Create five original recipes and share them with the world
    Exercise regularly

Surely some of these are trite, however, I feel it best to note them all. I cannot avoid what I can see — these are the things I shall do this year.

ad multos annos!
