Our Little Angel's Home

You probably noticed I haven't been posting all that much. My wife gave birth to our daughter about a month earlier. She stayed in the hospital's Neo-Natal ICU for a week. We took her home last Saturday. Our little angel is now home with us, where she belongs.

Much to my wife's chagrin, I am a fan of the Matrix movies. By extension, I also like the Animatrix series.Below are the episodes, courtesy of In2TV:

Quitting, Yet Again



I was muttering to myself again. Yes, I was having a conversation with myself. I've put this off long enough. I looked at the half-empty pack in my hand and decided it's going to be my last. I've decided to quit smoking yet again. 13 years of smoking isn't easy to put behind you, but I will try again. I will once more put my self through the paces. I know from experience that that first 2 weeks will be characterized with a great sense of relief, like having a gargantuan weight lifted off one's shoulder. Then after that, it will be a daily challenge to fight off the urge to light up. I hope to God I can do it this time and swear it off for good.
