HNT – 217

Thursday, October 29th, 2009 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

We’ve posted a lot of photos of California Girl waiting for me; but very few the other way around. So, today we decided to post a picture of me waiting for California Girl to retrieve her diaphragm. It happens very frequently since we aren’t planning on any more babies; but, for one reason or another, [...]

Two For Tuesday – 209

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 @ 7:45 am | Photos, TFT | By: Midwestern City Boy

For today’s photo session, we moved the camera to a position high above the bed. We think that it gives the photos a voyeuristic look. The only thing missing is the restricted field of view that would exist if the pictures were really taken with a pinhole camera. We couldn’t see the LCD display so [...]

The Project From Hell

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 @ 7:55 am | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

I don’t usually talk about work much; but, without getting into details, I’ve come to be working on the project from hell. Endless emails back and forth. Constant blamestorming. Daily meetings to figure out how to get the project back on track. It just goes on and on and on. I’ve been in business a [...]

What To Wear?

Monday, October 26th, 2009 @ 11:10 pm | Bitching | By: Midwestern City Boy

We’re going to a Halloween party this coming Saturday and we still haven’t decided what to wear. Costumes are encouraged; but we wouldn’t go to a Halloween party without being in costume anyway. Ordinarily, we’d just select something cute at the costume store; but, like everyone else, money is tight so we’re not making unnecessary [...]

More Surfing, Less Tinkering

Saturday, October 24th, 2009 @ 11:45 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

I won’t know for sure until Sunday or Monday but I think I have finally fixed the server software issue that was intermittently causing Married In Ohio to crash. I’m sure that I have found the root cause; however, I won’t know until we don’t have any crashes for a while that my solution corrects [...]

HNT – 216

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

We’ve usually post more than one photo for HNT (even though it’s against the rules); but occasionally there’s one photo that we like a lot better than all of the rest and we only post that one. This week is one of those times. And, as is often the case with our favorite photos, it’s not [...]

Two For Tuesday – 208

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009 @ 8:30 am | Photos, TFT | By: Midwestern City Boy

We’ve posted a lot of photos recently since I’ve published a lot of geeky posts; so we’re only posting one Two For Tuesday photo. Here’s one of favorites from our most recent photo session. Hopefully I can stop tweaking configuration settings and get back to blogging soon. P.S. It was just last week that we [...]

A Rocky Upgrade – Part II

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 @ 11:25 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

You may have noticed that I haven’t been commenting much on everyone’s blog recently. That’s for two reasons. Firstly, our OpenId server was broken after the most recent upgrade so I couldn’t; comment on Blogger blogs that don’t allow anonymous comments. And secondly, the server which hosts Married In Ohio has been intermittently crashing. So, [...]

Tournament Time

Monday, October 19th, 2009 @ 11:45 pm | Kids/Family | By: Midwestern City Boy

Like all of the other girls high school soccer teams in Ohio, The Girl’s team played today. It tournament time so for the season ended for half of them.  And so it will be for every game day until a champion is crowned. Fortunately, her team won easily; but, every game could be the last [...]

A Rocky Upgrade

Sunday, October 18th, 2009 @ 11:50 pm | General | By: Midwestern City Boy

I upgraded to the latest version of PHP (5.3) today. Unfortunately it did not go as smoothly as planned. Something strange happened earlier this evening and the blog went outline. I was drowning my sorrows over the Bengals’ loss so I didn’t notice until just a few minutes ago. It was a PIA to upgrade [...]
