  • Hoping to get to bed early tonight

    JH had constipation last week, and Sara and I were both up early in the morning three nights, taking care of him. It was like having a little baby! Anyway, we’re both really tired now, so I’m planning on getting to bed at a reasonable hour. That would be right about now, I guess, but…

  • Sara’s birthday

    Today we went to Marin Headlands to see a friend’s art exhibit. We tried to ride bikes there, but there was too much traffic for the kids, so we ended up driving back over the Golden Gate Bridge to Crissy Field. John Haley had a nice time riding, but Solveig was impatient with bike riding…

  • Back in SF

    We just got back from a long weekend in Colorado, where we were for my cousin’s wedding. We had a very nice trip, and it was fun to visit with family, but I’m happy to be back home in San Francisco.

  • Raspberry Pi

    One of the nice things about having a new TV is that I can hook my new Raspberry Pi to it. Today, my $35 computer arrived, and I wasted no time in getting it set up. It works fine! I’m curious to try different distros, and find out what I can do with this little…

  • Home alone, part deux

    Sara and the kids went to Michigan last Sunday, and I’ve been on my own for a few days. The past two nights, I went out with colleagues. Towards the end of last night, I definitely started feeling my introverted side, and so I took today to be mostly alone and recharge. Today feels incredibly…

  • Home alone

    Sara and the kids are in Michigan. I’ve been doing as I often do when they’re out of town, spending extra time at work, and getting lots of exercise. Also, I have been eating relatively poorly to when they’re around, because I’m not cooking. Today I bought a TV, on the spur of the moment.…

  • Time to blog

    I should really blog in the morning, when I’m not tired, and I’m full of ideas. Or maybe in the afternoon? When’s the best time to blog? Clearly it’s not 11:23 at night, when I have 37 minutes left in my blogging Beeminder. On the other hand, I’m doing pretty well on the Blogpact. I…

  • This is my blog post for today

    Some interesting things happened today and I had some interesting thoughts. I wish I could give you a read only line on my internal monologue, because I’m sure you would enjoy at least some of it. Nevertheless, I’m too tired to write anything but a cursory blog post right now. I’ll try for more tomorrow.

  • This weekend

    This evening, Sara and I watched the 2011 Footloose. Sara had said that she was going to watch Footloose II, which I took to mean a sequel to the original, probably from the 80s. But when I searched for it, I realized that she was watching a modern remake. It actually was not bad. Quite…

  • Today’s run

    This afternoon, I took a run on the Embarcadero, as I often do. It was great weather for running, but a bit windy. Since my run was right after yoga class, I started off a bit dazed, and I was running more slowly than usual. As I started the last mile, I realized that everyone…
