Short Updates

Posted by Scott at 09:09 PM

Good morning! Smooth commute down to Boxborough with temps in the low 70's. Offered a Sorrowful Rosary for Michelle's health and then listened to Patrick Madrid on Open Line. Michelle will be teaching her 20/20/20 class this morning and taking the family to the pool later. 8:34am

Since my boss is back from his weeks in San Diego, we all went out for lunch at Siam Village for some Thai. I was happy to have some Thai again. Hadn't had any in a couple of months or so. 1:23pm

Smooth drive home listening to more of "The Bros Karamazov". Feeling a bit tired from today's commute. As soon as I got home, I had to follow up on a promise I made the twins this morning of making their Nintendo DS's connect to the home WiFi. (I did that for Tim's many weeks ago...) 6:26pm

<geek>Finally have a need for Perl's lookahead and lookbehind regular expressions. Studying....</geek> 7:12pm

Abby was showing me some of the pictures sitting in her camera. She has a ton of good stuff but I don't think I'll be able to go through it until this weekend. Luckily I'll have no yard work to do. 7:40pm

Article: Data-gobbling Android users will likely see bandwidth capped since Verizon Android users consume 25 percent more data than ATT iPhone users. 7:58pm

Saw two articles recently warning about Twilight and the messages it might send teen girls. Teens, Love, and Making Choices and The Problem with Vampires [an Acrobat PDF file]. 8:39pm

Blog entry: 50 Maxims for becoming a Saint! from St Alphonsus Liguori via Taylor Marshall. 8:46pm

Although as an Android phone owner I recently shifted to Google Reader I decided to see how Bloglines would do as they have a smartphone specific version. Works in theory but it tends to be unstable with a lot of server errors. Google Reader tends to work more reliably. 9:08pm
