It has been a wile since I have posted about what I'm up to. Work has actually been busy and productive. A couple weeks ago, I was tasked to develop a multidimensional form in under 5 days and demo it. This is where all my recent posts have been coming out of. Friday, a week ago, I demoed my multidimensional form to some key stakeholder in the project, and got to go ahead to continue working on it, which is good. That afternoon, I went home sick and stayed sick over the VEISHEA weekend. AmesMUG didn't have a tent this year, so I guess I didn't miss anything that needed to be done. Gaila was gone for the weekend at the estate auction in Ottumwa, so I was sick all by myself :(.

On the good side, it got me around to finally hooking up my Wii. I have already gotten about half way through Paper Mario and Gaila has taking a liking to playing Zelda.

Last week Gaila was sick all week, same thing I had, but during the week. Because she was sick all week, she has been working pretty much the entire weekend, catching up on what she missed.

This week was the Emerging Technologies Conference on campus. I went to see a couple of presentations. The most notable presentation I went to was Guy Kawasaki. He talked on the "Art of the Start", what to do and not do when trying to start a business that will change the world, in a very humorous manner. I bought his book the "Art of the Start" which he signed after the presentation. I also learned that he has Meniere's Disease (same thing my mom has) and discussed some of the treatments he has done. He doesn't have it as bad as my mom does, but it was interesting talking about.

The IgniteIT event was lots of fun. Free beer, free food, and free fun. Some great short presentations, and the end was a series of Power Point Karaoke.

Now it is time to do a little something about cleaning this apartment, as it has fallen apart from us being sick all the time.
