Heading to Iraq
Jul 8th
Well, today is the big day. I am headed off to Iraq some time today (won’t say when due to opsec). Just like when I was in the Marines, this will only be a six month long deployment but it is the first deployment I will have away from my kids. So for the rest of the day, the PC’s and Laptops are getting shut down, and I am going to focus on playing with and loving on my kids and wife as much as possible. All week (and through the weekend of the fourth) we have been doing fun things and going out to fun places to eat. We went bowling and took family pictures. We went to a carnival and fun pizza places. That’s what it’s all about. Those fun little things are going to be memories I take with me and cherish for the next six months. I hope every father or mother headed overseas soon takes advantage of the time they have here and spend it wisely.
Happy Birthday Aeden!

Blog Changes
Jun 12th
In an effort to bring more readers, I am going to be changing my blog a bit. As I mentioned, I am moving fitness stuff to AlphaSoldier.com but I am also going to do video game blogging at UnderworldPlumbing.com. This blog will be primarily related to my professional development as a programmer as well as my personal quips. So if you aren’t interested in me ranting about new Ruby implementations or about what I think of new technology, then this isn’t the blog for you. Check out my other blogs today to see if they are more up your alley.
