I decided I am going to take a shower tonight.

I had an idea for starting a new business and would like some feedback.

There are currently lots of social networking websites that allow people to create profiles and say things about themselves. I would like to make a site that allows people to say things about other people Wikipedia style. Wiki-people. People could sign on and write reviews of their friends and publicly thank or praise them.… read more “Joel’s New Biz Idea”

I am not sure exactly what is wrong with my wrist but it has been bothering me for about a week. I think it is a combination of a sprain and an keyboard/mouse overuse injury. Yeah, pretty gay I know, but when you spend most of your time working with computers and don’t have ergonomic equiptment, ligaments and tendons get hurt.

Ian and I had some excellent sushi tonight. We went to Omi’s sushi restaurant in Pioneer Square and had 6 sushi rolls that only cost $3 apiece and 2 monster 45 oz hard drinks. Very good.

After we finished our sushi, we went to his buddies’ house and hung out for a few minutes and then headed over to a really cool Capitol Hill bar called the Hideout.… read more “Excellent Sushi”

Last night I dreamed that I was in a situation like in the movie “The Day After Tomorrow”. Massive snowstorms and crazy weather had caused tons of accidents, trapping lots of people including myself. Food was running low, so I loaded up a sled and started to snowshoe my way south. If I was a bit more superstitious, I might think that this dream was a religious prophesy of things to come.… read more “Crazy Dream”

I have decided that I am going to be much more efficient in my use of my time. In gmail spreadsheets, I set up a document with 4 sections: VT, work, personal and physical. Under each category I listed out my to do list and goals. I am eventually going to break it out into immediate to do stuff, short term goals and long term goals.… read more “Goals”

Check out my new site redesign at my JoelX.com site! I spent today building it from scratch. What do you guys think?

My knees! Oh, my achy knees! I feel like a cripple!

Actually, it’s not that bad. The outside little muscles on the side of my knee are pretty sore, but it’s not too much of an issue. I just had to do a waddle when I walked in to work.
