Yay. Another Blog.

I did try to think of non-blog ways to accomplish my goals, but they don’t work.

Lately, I have felt compelled to record certain thoughts and capture certain events. It’s not that my life or thoughts have become any more interesting, but that, with the birth of my daughter, I think someone else might be interested in these pieces of my life. I know that I have tried to imagine what my parents’ life might have been like when I was an infant. But by the time I was old enough to care, that life – and the people who lived it – had given way to the products of passing time.

I bought a Moleskine after we learned that AT was pregnant, guessing correctly that I would want to keep some kind of record. But it isn’t easy to add images to a book, and it’s harder still to add audio. But the biggest drawback is that I can’t bring my friends and family with me into a book in the way that’s possible in a blog.

So here it is. Another blog.

Just what we were waiting

Just what we were waiting for, right? :-)

Glad to hear things are going well and that you’re keeping up with the digital lifestyle, be it not as a Project 365 contributor. I like this idea, letters to SG. You are on cloud 9 with her, aren’t you?

Keep blogging and taking pictures mate!

PS: Like the Google Reader items: XKCD, Strange Maps… Great ones!

Nils, thanks!

I only discovered xkcd a month or so ago and I annoyed my wife by staying up late reading the old comics in bed. Great stuff!
