Since the spring I have gotten more and more fond of apple machines and have a Mac mini and a little MacBook. The primary focus is Objective-C and it’s making my head slowly spin less. I manage about an hour a day effective time and I would like to do more. When the new iMac’s [...]
Been sick for such a long time and with my brain being slow to say the least I haven’t cared much at all about this poor blog. Probably would be better to start over from scratch if it wasn’t for the whole lazy and tired bit
My desktop at home have been getting progressively more demented. XP finally decided that a Blue Screen it is all it’s going to do and there is nothing I can do about it. As far as I could find something had started to go wrong with the disks and the complete lockups that plagued me [...]
Spent the weekend doing outings. This one we went roaming in Epping forrest and visited a colleague that recently had a baby. All in all it was a very good weekend with lots of fun even though little Mr Incontinent did manage to have an accident two days in a row. The thundergod was vaccinated [...]

I am married to my fantastic wife. We had a ceremony for the law but this time it was the real one in front of all the family and friends. Most of the night went according to plan but the one thing we didn’t manage was to get clothing for my chest and it was [...]
This morning there was stürm-und-drang mit Dramaesque from little H. She went at the boys slapping and pulling hair pushing them around until I managed to wake up and stop the abuse. She was awake at 5 something pinching, slapping and generaly trying to wake me up very rudely. Tomorrow I will put her back [...]
