		<title>High drama year, to say the least</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This has been a high drama year, to say the least. I know that my last post of last year was quite cheery &#8230; but just a few weeks later Lisa’s sister, Doreen died. It was unexpected and very tragic. She had been sick with Hepatitis C for some time, and it was wearing down [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’m just testing out a new application I purchased, named MacJournal. It allows me to write my journal entries on my mac and then publish them to my blog with a push of a button.

Let’s see how good they look, embedded graphics and all.

		<title>Christmas Eve &#8211; 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here I sit, in my comfy seat, wearing my most comfortable PJ&#8217;s and slippers, in my living room on Christmas Eve, 2009. Looking back at the year, a whole lot has happened. Here are a few of the highlights.

Got laid-off from my employer, but immediately hired back as a part-time contractor
Got hired as a full [...]]]></description>

		<title>hard week</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week was very hard. I stayed up late on Wednesday night at my D&#38;D (e3.5) game &#8211; and we had a blast! I stayed at work very, very late Thursday and didn&#8217;t get home until almost 11:00 pm. I was able to have a pretty good Friday but still didn&#8217;t make up enough sleep [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Podcasts / Local Convention</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was a quiet day, and not too much happened. Certainly nothing worth reporting here. I did get to see another photo album worth of pictures of my Brother, Sister-in-law, and Nephew. That was great! I&#8217;ll be able to see all of them in person when Lisa and I visit Michigan in a couple of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Relationship woes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was pretty shocked at the news revealed on the latest Kicked in the Dice Bags. Part of me knows that break-ups, infidelities, and heart-breaks happen. But I always want to assume the best, because each time a relationship ends like that &#8230; it feels like &#8220;another one gone.&#8221; Something valuable, rare, and precious was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Marketing when you &#8220;can&#8217;t&#8221; make money from a product</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First, let&#8217;s be honest here. I&#8217;m a technologist. I&#8217;m not a marketer and I&#8217;ve never (successfully) started a business with, you know, actual customers. But, that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m so fascinated by marketing and business models. It&#8217;s interesting because it&#8217;s so different than what I do! Marketing people can look on in fascination while I &#8216;fix&#8217; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Marriage Day!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, the big news today is that Lisa &#38; I got married! We had a small ceremony at Dedham Town Hall, and were married by a local Justice of the Peace. We exchanged vows and rings and had him snap a few photos (forthcoming).
So, eight years after we first met, we married!
Afterwards we went out [...]]]></description>

		<title>privacy in the digital age</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I know, this is an often mentioned, hackneyed topic by now. But, a certain Post Secret post, brought it up to me in stark relief.
What bothers me is not just the &#8220;I read other peoples emails&#8221; but the fact that she reads her husbands emails. Then, to make it even more intrusive, she sends replies. [...]]]></description>
