Excerpt: It is usually considered a sad state of affairs when a blog drops down to less than one post a month, but for me, that means I am working hard on other things, and haven't really had time for a personal blog. I won't be getting rid of this blog any time soon, as I enjoy writing here, and it is much …

Birthday Thanks

Excerpt: I just wanted to thank everyone who wished me well on my birthday yesterday. I am no a quarter of a century old.

Excerpt: Well, about three days ago now, I was rollerblading with Sabine, and we were racing.

Excerpt: It is strange to be wearing a wedding band all the time. Sometimes it gets in the way of what I am doing, other times I don't notice it at all. My wedding band is very plain and simple, a piece of metal wrapped around my finger. I wanted to make sure Sabine's finger was wrapped in something nice …
