Don’t fall off the wagon!

My wife chatted me a few minutes ago and asked if I was going to “lose my chip”.  It’s a joke regarding my recent commitment to posting something new every day on my site. The reference is of course AA and how you get a chip each week or month that you stay dry.  I admit that in the past I’ve struggled keeping up with things like this. But I’m on my 5th week and this past month has been good for me. I use the calendar (scroll down on the sidebar to the right) as a way of seeing my progress.  The text is green for each day that I’ve posted.

One could argue that a post about posting is not a valid post. But it is. If you don’t believe me just scroll down and see that November 19th is in fact green. However, I really don’t want to cheat so I’ll also use this as a forum to list off some excuses preview of upcoming posts…

• I had originally planned to post on the NXE (New Xbox Experience) but when I logged in at 12:30 last night the update wasn’t available yet. Today someone told me that it came online at 2am last night. Assuming that it’s available now I will download it and give it a test, try to avoid getting sucked into Gears 2, and post my first impressions – maybe even later tonight. I honestly expected everyone and their mother’s website to be talking about NXE today but it’s been somewhat quiet.
• My backup plan was to talk about this trademark that I filed a while ago. I SWEAR that I had it scanned in and ready to go, but I can’t find it and don’t have the original paper doc with me today. So that one’s got to wait until later.
• I DO have some other cool old things scanned in but sort of wanted to have some other media to go with them. I know that’s a little bit vague, but hey, I don’t want to give it away.  But anyway, that’s gotta wait until I find “the media”.
• I will be reviewing some iPhone apps. A buddy submitted one to the app store today, and of course I’m working on one that should be ready soon as well.  But those need to wait until they’re actually available on the app store.
