Blog

At the recommendation of Kai Ryssdal from Marketplace, I ended up purchasing a new coffee table book called Apollo Remastered. And oh man was it worth the purchase.

Almost a week ago, NASA finally launched the Artemis I mission. This is the first launch of the Space Launch System (SLS). It launched an unmanned Orion capsule around the moon. While I'm excited about the prospect of us going back to the moon, I have mixed feelings on the current program.

Over the last 2 weeks, we've seen one of the most popular and biggest crypto exchanges go from top of the world to declaring bankruptcy. I try not to dump on stuff I don't fully understand, but at this point, I'm kind of glad I haven't gotten into the whole crypto craze.

In case you haven't noticed, I decided to add some color and font themes to my blog.

The biggest thing to happen in the month of October was probably celebrating Lauren's and my 9 year anniversary. Other than that, it was mostly a quiet month.

For a while now I've been adding an image for when my posts get shared on Twitter and the like. It's been a manual process where I open up Photoshop and manually update the text. I wanted to change that to make it faster for me to create, so I wrote up a quick .NET console app to go about doing that and will share with you how to build your own.

Of course the month of my vacation is the month that seems to fly by the fastest.

Life's been busy lately and I didn't get around to posting my weekly reading the last 2 weeks. I'ms starting back up with a slightly new format. I'm going to have a few links that I go into more depth with my thoughts on and then follow it up with the normal link list.

I can't believe the summer is basically over. August was spent running. So...much...running.

Was a little busy last week so this week is a little longer.

Well, it's been just about a month since I started training for the 2022 Philadelphia Marathon. Overall it's been going well.

Quite a lot this week.
