A Hint of Things to Come
Day two of the kitchen demo gave us a glimpse of how the final remodel will look, as the drywall was torn out of the areas where the wall is being removed! It’s a nice excitement bump to help offset the thought of washing our dishes in the bathroom tub.
The Point of No Return
After one day of prep and demo, the kitchen is largely transformed. Holly was quite happy to see the old 1956 cabinets mostly gone when she got home. I’m also really impressed that Keystone cleaned up the work area before they left for the night! All the debris was swept and vacuumed. That’s a nice touch, since we have three cats that will be poking their noses into everything different when we let them out each night.
Demo has Started on our Kitchen Remodel!
Many of you have asked to be kept up to date on the kitchen remodel project, and this blog will be the best way for us to do that, so I hope you enjoy! Things are officially underway now, as demolition started this morning. We now have a lot of plastic and floor...
Joby iPad Stand
I have a little Joby Gorillapod, which is a really cool and lightweight way to have a tripod with me. The other day I was pondering where to get a solid, cheap stand for my iPad, rather than paying the ridiculously high prices for “official” iPad stands I’ve seen, when it occurred to me to use the Joby! I bent the front two legs upwards to catch the iPad base, and bent the back leg mostly flat for stability.
Tuk Tuk Rides in Cambodia
In March we went to Cambodia on vacation, and I shot some random video of our tuk tuk rides using my iPhone. I’m no videographer, but these do provide a fun glimpse into the chaotic roadways in and around Siem Reap, and how fun the rides are when you can finally let go of the fear that you are going to die in a traffic accident!
Gamesauce!
This morning I’m heading out for Gamesauce, which is the first day of the Casual Connect Game Conference. There appear to be some pretty good topics on the list of talks for game development and alternative funding this year, and I expect to run into some old friends. Should be a fun day! Drop me a note if you will be there.
Casual Connect Game Conference
This week brings the Casual Connect Game conference back to Seattle, and I’ll be participating in the goodness! Lots of good talks this year on developing for mobile platforms, business management and funding, which is exactly where my head is at these days. I’m looking forward to learning a lot, and making some new connections that could help with the game company I’m starting up.

After years of relative inactivity on the web, I’m back in the game.
I’ve started this blog to post updates and pics from the vacation to Singapore and Cambodia we are about to take, and then later to generally do all the things blogs do for a person.
