Toddlers are Immature
About once a week, I find myself sighing as I watch Zaden explode in another emotional rage and telling him, "Dude, you're really being immature." My wife thought this was funny the first time I said it, but now that I tell him this on a somewhat regular basis (because hey, he is still BEING immature) she thinks it implies a complete disregard for the fact that he IS, in fact, immature. I should anticipate the difficulties and [...]
Leaving America
Photo by Psovart I've left my home country. I went through a grieving period where I had to finally face my expatriation as a citizen, as a member of the collective that is America. The mourning lasted about a half an hour. But still, it was tough, to face those realities that I have left my home, indefinitely.

This career suits me incredibly well, and I never would have found it without the amazing creations that Steve Jobs made possible, through [...]
Insomnia Bath
I've been a bad blogger lately. Sure, I've been busy - running a business, moving to Costa Rica, chasing after two toddlers, etc. - but there's no need for me to neglect my blog like this. Aw, great. I just took ANOTHER crap on my blog, and opened my post with an apology about how I haven't been posting lately. So, I'm going to keep kicking myself into shape, by doing bad blogger things until I get them [...]
