Lefty Trauma

After a few days of low grade pain, I finally went to a doctor today after my left hand swelled up… I got a series of X-rays, which didn’t show any bone damage… It looks like I tore a tendon in my wrist – under my thumb – working some BJJ against a 350lb training [...]

Just say NO!

These things seem to go together for me:

No due process… What country do I live in again? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/29/senate-votes-to-let-military-detain-americans-indefinitely_n_1119473.html

Since I seem to be spending the majority of my time on social media sites posting stuff, I thought I’d link those posts here on my personal site as well… Good article on problem solving various types of “injuries.”

After the Pause

Busy, busy, busy… As always…

I consciously took some time off from the blog.

No inspiration to write, a lot of other things on my plate: travel, family commitments, that kind of thing.

Hopefully I am back at it now.

In the next few weeks I am going to be making some changes to [...]

Lost in Place

Wow.

I just realized I haven’t updated my site in over a month! Where did the time go?

Let’s see… Quick catch up…

I am feeling 100% again, fully recovered from my bout of whooping cough. Work is running smoothly, though a bit slow… Life with the family is great… In fact my wonderful wife [...]

Almost There

I saw my doctor yesterday, in a follow-up to check out the status of my lungs after getting whooping cough. I am officially on the mend. My lungs are almost back to normal (in terms of inflammation and capacity). My doctor suggested a few more days of recovery (no going “balls-to-the-wall” in training). So nothing [...]

Possibilities

Just read this fantastic article on Heather Armstrong… It has opened a very large hole in my head… The possibilities, the possibilities:

Expanding Horizons

In some ways it seems silly and pretentious to write all this out, but given the nature of what a personal blog is I’m going to try and get through it…

First off some direction through definition:

Expanding: 1. To increase the size, volume, quantity, or scope of; enlarge: expanded her store by adding a [...]

Goals for 2011

In keeping with past years, I was looking for a “pithy” catchall phrase, or sentence, to capture the spirit of this year’s driving themes… So far, I haven’t found anything better than this, from last year:

“Love, prosperity, peace, light & laughter, in 2010 (now 2011) and beyond.” From Twitter

This last year (2010) [...]
