Weekend too short but great moments

Another weekend come and gone! Cant believe it went so fast , was it even really here?. I feel like that has been said a quadrillion times in the English language. However, even with all that feeling of rush also comes with a realization that it did bring forth many wonderful things. A nice couch sit down with the family to watch “Falcon and the Winter Soldier” with kids that would soon leave the nest. I got so accompany my beautiful wife on ther real estate adventures and see some truly clean and well decorated houses., love that HGTV feel!  I got to sit on a hammock and read the intrepid and varied history of Nintendo and their rise to power. I really enjoyed that while every competitor was going for compute speed and fancy chips, Nintendo (much like Apple) decided to go for the human element, what hardware can give better visuals or engaging sound at the crazy low budget we have. Can we design the hardware around the human experience rather than Hz and Bits? And boy o boy did it pay off for them. All the West made machines Atari, Coleco, Intellivision, and even the beloved C-64 could never compare to the closed loop polished  and targeted look of the Famicom Family Computer games with the locked in cartridges and seal of “quality”.  It is no wonder they took over. Anyhow the weekend was full of unexpected DevOps work , cause clouds fail as they must. Also chores and chores that list on and on. But it is the little things, like walking with my wife in afternoon daylight on a Sunday afternoon that really made me thank the Lord and the Universe for this gift we call life!

    Glad you found the happy moments in a busy weekend... and yeah, just in general, every artist, every scientist, everybody’s perspective is unique to themselves. I believe outside of hz and bits, I believe success is finding or forming a group that relates (or tolerates) your perspective on the products you want to deliver to the world ;)... big or small

Add'ness and lack of reflection

Thinking about it today. I came to realize that my inherent ADDness does not only come genetically passed down. Or created due to my repetitive 20 year work as an IT professional, but it is what creative intellectuals do to cope with the inherent lack of creative challenges. There are those who create and those who consume. I fortunately or unfortunately am the creative type and sometimes my work does provide a challenge that requires my creative thinking, but most often than not it only offers repetitive mundane yaks that must be stamped out. So in the meantime the brain creates problems or attention getters that really do not need attention at all, like keeping up with the news or Facebook. These are subconsciously implanted as tasks to be completed to make the brain perceive that it has more to do than what is really present. Over time this becomes the nor and things like this be one the norm at home too. You try to sit patiently and listen through your Childs story and you catch y

Productive Day

Enjoying a productive day studying business communications and Human Relationship Management. Sat at Scooter's Coffee and really enjoyed the atmospehere, although the lack of the famous Totty coffee. Had a wonderful family lunch with my kids and wife eating Tropical Smoothy Cafe food. Decided to be a good son and water my mother's garden. As I turned on the hose I worried a little about the water consumption regulations, but I was quicly at ease at looking at how long there poor plants had gone without water, and watered away. The ADD'ness of the NET is wearing off more now and learning to read at least 3 pages without checking gmail and facebook!! Reading books is such a cool concept, I am sad that the Internet multitasking overloadingness is slowly training people to consume at max speed and not enjoy content. Less can me much more gratifiying than more.....
