  1. Cable modem, WiFi and femtocell operational? Check. Living and dining room assembled? Check. The Mountain Retreat is coming along nicely.

  2. Work-Life Balance (We’re Hiring)

    View of Breckenridge from the Deck

    It’s been very interesting to me to see how some folks are re-evaluating their work/life balance in the wake of reading Isaacson’s Steve Jobs biography (most famously, this story). I’ve been making some of the same evaluations over the last few years following the birth of my daughter. This isn’t a new thing for me.…

  3. I don’t understand how folks that advocate for custom fonts on websites get past the horrible visual when the fonts “load in” late.

  4. Everything on this list is important. Absolutely no chance of getting through them all in the foreseeable future. 2012 is kicking my arse.

  5. “These are the best labels I’ve had (peeled) in a while.”

    “It’s the humidity.”

  6. When the Internet connection goes down at midnight, I read that as “go to bed and push your commits in the morning”.

  7. Is anyone else seeing a large influx in LinkedIn and Facebook invite SPAM? For me it’s been the last few weeks.

  8. My Logitech MX Revolution mouse is starting to fail (phantom clicks, etc.). Recommendations on a replacement? Must not be Bluetooth.

  9. Played a few hours of doubles before my 4′s volleyball league tonight. Turns out I’m not in that kind of shape anymore – sore and tired!

  10. NEXT TIME SOMEONE REMIND ME THERE IS A SMOKE DETECTOR IN THE FURNACE ROOM… GEESH

  11. ONE OF THESE SMOKE DETECTORS IS BEEPING AND IT’S NOT THIS ONE AND NOW I CAN’T GET IT TO CLICK BACK IN PLACE AND NOW MY ARMS ARE TIRED

  12. There are a lot of Polish surnames in Monsters, Inc.

    I kept an eye out for “Sandusky” when watching it this weekend, but no such irony.

  13. Any day of January golf in Colorado is a good day. Today was gorgeous.

  14. I just don’t understand why sales people insist on phone calls instead of email. Annoying me constantly is no way to get my business.

  15. Pleased to report @versionsapp has been making itself quite useful as a new tool in my toolset. /cc @dwiskus @dlpasco

  16. Not much sleep last night. Dog was fired up after a near run-in with a coyote in the wee hours (no actual run-in, everyone stayed on their side of the fence).
