First, something I should have posted two days ago: Happy Birthday, Tony! I’m happy to say that my exercise habit continues. On Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, I went to the SCJ fitness center. Each time, I walked/ran 4 miles in 45 minutes. This corresponds to a speed of roughly 5.3 miles per hour. If […]

Gonna Fly Now
I didn’t have any trouble getting home from Philadelphia on Friday night, even though the weather was a bit ugly both departing and arriving in Chicago. I worked out again last night at the SCJ fitness center. Over the weekend, I created a new playlist on my iPod called “Exercise”. It’s amazing how the right […]
Graduation Day
There’s about four hours of class left. Once I learn a bit more about function modules, I’ll feel ready to demonstrate my skills at SCJ. I hope the weather doesn’t cause any flight delays / cancellations tonight. There’s a flood watch for Philadelphia and light snow predicted for O’Hare and the surrounding area. Assuming there’s […]
36 Hours and Counting
I’m still having a good time in Pennsylvania, but I’m getting a bit eager to return home. This is probably the longest time Jenelle and I have spent apart since we got married. Yesterday was fairly productive. I didn’t do any reading, but I did manage to walk/jog 3.8 miles in 45 minutes on the […]
Hurry up and wait
There’s advantages and disadvantages to finishing your class exercises early. The advantage is that I’m done 45 minutes early. The disadvantage is that the shuttle bus leaves for the hotel at the same time every evening (about 5:15 p.m. local time), so I have an hour to kill. So, I’ll probably spend it trying to […]
Best. Mall. Ever.
After another enlightening ABAP class, I decided to go to a nearby mall for dinner. The King of Prussia Mall, that is. Those of you Wisconsinites who read this: pick any major store that you can find at Mayfair, Brookfield, Southridge, or Regency. I can almost guarantee that you’ll find it at this mall. The […]
Pennsylvania, Days 1-2
After two nights in PA and one day of class, things are going well. I’m not going to bore anyone with the details of Advanced Business Application Programming, so here’s a few notes from my trip so far: I left the airport at about the same time as the Super Bowl started. Thankfully, the shuttle […]
A tribute to my favorite movie
Okay, campers, rise and shine! And don’t forget your booties ’cause it’s COLD out there today. What is this, Miami Beach? Not hardly. And don’t forget about that big blizzard thing… oh, here’s the report: The National Weather Service is calling for a big blizzard thing. Now, there’s another reason why today is especially exciting […]
10 degrees, turn on the A.C.
After some seriously cold weather over the past few days, it’s warm today. By warm, I mean that the temperature is back in double digits. The crowds were out at Mayfair today, probably because everyone had cabin fever. Not even a faulty fire alarm system could keep people out. Jenelle and I successfully got our […]
Sunday Good Times
Jenelle and I went to Office Depot today and bought a new desk. We moved Jenelle’s computer and the old desk to the guest room. As you can see, there’s plenty of room for all sorts of things on top of the desk. The keyboard is in a drawer. Two more birthdays today. One is […]
