"No, this isn't a good time to talk. I'm in the hospital recovering from surgery."

I'd thought I was calling the guy's office.

I should be able to have it ring differently at different times of day for different people. I should be able to create menus so that callers could elect to do things like go straight to voicemail. I should be able to send classes of callers there against their will. :-) I should be able to program the phone to do these things myself. grumble-grumble

How are things? I haven't been on LJ again for months on end and thus haven't been keeping up.

Things are pretty good overall. Feet still b0rked. Still have three wonderful cats and one wonderful husband. New job at tiny startup = exciting and all but overwhelming. One kitty has recently been diagnosed diabetic and is responding well to treatment.

How are things with you? How is your wife? How's the (MUST be here by now) BABY? Are you still playing poker?

:-) I hope you enjoy the startup experience. I've done that more often than not and find that I like that atmosphere more than larger companies. For the most part I've started with tiny startups and helped make them larger companies and then ended up leaving for one reason or another.

Speaking of that, I'm doing it again. :-) http://www.codefire.com/news_article.php?article=2 Poker was going well, but the opportunity to work with an online poker site was more than I could pass up. It combines a lot of things that I enjoy and is turning out to be a very interesting experience.

Alexander James is with us now! You can see him some here:

We're having so much fun being parents. He's a joy most of the time and gets better all the time. About a week ago, he grew up all at once in one day. I think there was some marked improvement in his vision, but now his personality is much more positive, he likes to play some, he reaches for things, etc. It's fun watching him do all of these things for the first time.

Ooo, awesome! That seems like it truly is perfect for you. I'm glad you're enjoying it. I love hearing about situations that turn out perfectly like that -- two seemingly disparate chunks of experience and interests meshing perfectly for the next thing you do.

That's wonderful. The pictures are great! Who's the other little one who keeps showing up in there -- a cousin? I bet this is one of the most amazing times for parents, as new babies learn so MUCH. Just operating a body is a lot of skills to learn.

Yep. My brother and sister-in-law had their second daughter about a week before we had Alex. I hope they'll grow up close. :-)
