First post in almost two years to this blog. I’m trying turn over a new leaf. Post more stuff here and just crosspost it to the other places I frequent. Enough about that… let’s get on with it. Went see A-Trak last Tuesday at The Complex. What is it with venues in Salt Lake City…
Update for the Peoples!
It’s been two weeks since I started working at ye olde online retailer. Things are going well. Everyone I work with has been super nice. My boss is great. These first two weeks have been about learning their database. I only started to do “real” work late last week. It’s 100% straight up SQL, no…
On Choosing
Today I made a choice. I decided to take a job at Overstock.com instead of One on One. I’m super duper excited about the new job. Who wouldn’t be. I would have been excited about either job, really. Let’s break it down a little… Overstock offered slightly more money and better benefits. Overstock is closer…

Here’s a list of places I’ve looked since the layoff on Aug 18th.

Well, it’s been like 5 months since I had enough time to think, much less post anything substantive to the good olde series of tubes more commonly known as the internets. Well, I lot has happened in that 5 months. Here’s a…
Tara Croft: Poop Raider

Pet Names oozing with “cute”
This post was inspired by my friends, Nathan & Charles, and their dog Sadie. Sadie has what I think is the best alias pet name EVER: Mrs. Woofington. Yes, that’s right. It’s so good that I think they should copyright it, because I am tempted to st…
It always comes back to Kiko
One of my friends mentioned that this blog is titled “kiko and his furry friends” but then all the photos are of Tara. Now, that’s not exactly true, but . . . point taken. If you go back far enough there is some history and many photos of Kiko, from wh…
