Suck It, AppleCare

I’m anxiously awaiting my replacement topcase and keyboard which I bought off of e-bay for $50 bucks… It’s been a known problem with the previous generation of Macbook Pros (my model is A1226) that a small ribbon, which connects the keyboard and trackpad to a small board on the top case, tends to bend and [...]

Austin Javascript Meetup!

I almost forgot about this, but I just found out about the Austin Javascript meetup… Thanks to @andyhite for the heads up. I’m pretty excited about meeting some people to discuss this stuff because I’ve been having some pretty bad issues with my applications which are heavily reliant on javascript. The bigger it gets, the [...]

MySQL Workbench 5.2

For those of you who like to see things visually, the newest release of MySQL workbench enables you to connect to your existing MySQL database and reverse engineer it so that you can see the full ERR (Entity Relationship R_____) Diagram in all its glory. For me this is helpful to see when I’m taking [...]

Winston

This is our dog Winston.. He’s spent a lot of time in San Antonio with my parents since we’ve been out of town so much. But I don’t think they mind taking care of him especially since Chase died in July. I don’t know how we’d be able to take care of this dog especially [...]

The End of a Decade. Holy Crap.

Post-Christmas Update

Hm, about that “updating frequently” thing. I failed at that. Anyway, I’m halfway through Christmas break and it’s been rather relaxing. I had to work a little last week while I was still in Austin, but it was nothing big. It was a SOAP connection that was being erratic, but I figured it out. I [...]

Wow three updates within two days?!

I feel like I REALLY need to start updating more. It’s still awesome to be able to go back to my Xanga and view old posts because it really helps me re-live college again. We all used to make pretty constant updates on Xanga back in the day, and they were all pretty detailed. Nowadays, [...]

Testing a post from my phone…

During the USC vs Texas game… Boooring…

Updated my WordPress!

Finally updated this thing to 2.8.6… Hopefully this will get rid of the spam that was plaguing my site…

Twitter Contests

I feel bad every time I enter one of these twitter contests because they usually involve some sort of a re-tweet which happens to annoy my friends, but when I win the Canon 5D Mark II or the trip to Hawaii or the free HP laptop, maybe I won’t feel so bad.
