While I was walking down shore. I saw this jetty from a good distance away. As I got closer, I spotted this moment. I could tell the woman in the picture was relaxing and taking all the surroundings in, so I decided to capture it. This quick snap turned into a calming and soothing moment and overall a beautiful picture.
Nobody gets excited when they see me. If I put on my wizard outfit and walk around the airport for a couple of hours, I get a couple of puzzled glances.

For the 365 days group, day 115 and for those just making their way one day at a time.
It's weird sometimes. I actually am doing work more like I enjoy doing; that is, writing code everyday and testing it. I'm stretching my humble skills a bit, with new techniques, better approaches, and plumbing the depths of an unfamiliar system.
Yet some days it just feel like getting by. Some days everything just flows but still it isn't quite satisfying. Sometimes the question pops into your head, is this it, is this my life's work?
On those days I just work and get by; I make the best of those moments that I can, when the other barriers are down and good work can be done. I daydream in between the moments of work, and wonder what if.
How about you?

Day 92 (October 3rd, 2010)
Title: Remembrance
I know we have days like "Veteran's Day" and "Memorial Day", which are great to help remember those who have fought in wars, but sometimes its nice to just remember folks (warrior or not) on just a random Tuesday (or any day really). So, the next time you have a free moment, think about your history and who helped build it. Think about those who came before you and what part they took in creating the legacy that you are now living in. Perhaps you can also think about what part you will play for the next generation. Think about how what actions you can do to help those tomorrow remember those from yesterday.
Ok, I admit, that last line was a bit "fortune-cookie", but still, its not a bad thought!

I think what was frustrating to see a lot of good people go. You don't picture it, you don't imagine it, don't think it could happen. When it does, you are puzzled.

YOu all know how it is when you have 5 things or more to do at a time but you don't know with what to start...that was the situation today...I sat and did nothing for a while....just sat there wondering.....
"If I lived back in the Wild West days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like, "Hey look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink. " - Jack Handy
