- Home For the Holidays
-
Well, I'm home for the holidays, and probably quite a bit longer. … It's cold.
- Heading back to Panama.
-
So, I'm heading back to Panama. Yay! More work with interesting people, more plane rides, and more opportunities for photography. All-around a good thing. I'll only be in Seattle for one day, though, as my plane leaves very late at night. This means I'll be able to drop by the Apple Store again and pick up a pair of headphone that'll bloody well fit the iPhone. Stupid recessed jack…
- Telephony

Damn, it's been busy down here in Panama. John and I have been slapping things together faster than… well, whatever's really fast. This entry will be about what I've been up to professionally. I'll devote a separate and wholly different post to what's been going on personally.
- I've been thinking.
-
The iPhone is cool, but only so useful. It's a phone and an iPod, despite it's nearly 1GHz processor and 8GB storage space. I need something that would allow me to SSH into my servers to manage them. I need storage encryption. I need quite a few things that are simply missing from the iPhone. On a personal note, I feel like crap.
- Okay, I've been in Panama a while…
-
… and things really are going well. I'm doing work I enjoy (sysadmining a 25 Mac network and a soon to be 50-phone VoIP network too), I'm getting paid well, and I'm feeling the healthiest I have in a very, very long time.
- Shortest. Flight. Ever.
-
So, I've finally been on the shortest flight of my life—this despite the fact that the marker moves with each flight.
- A Week of "Lasts"
-
In under one week I will be moving to Panama. This excites and distresses me simultaneously. While I know I will be returning in three months, if only for a short time, and only to return to Panama, I can't shake the feeling that this week is a week of "lasts".
- Stories to tell.
-
My journey home was less than plain, as you could probably picture from my last entry. I glossed over the bus ride, as I was far too tired to be writing anything, let alone an amusing story full of details.
- Seattle, now home.
-
So, I'm sitting back at the same home office I left three short weeks ago. Nothing makes a holiday pass like working entirely through it.
- The storms, they are a-coming.
-
Panamanian storms are beautiful things. The wind, gusting 20 stories towards the sky produce a hypnotic harmonic as they bend around the building's sharp edges.
- Quick Panama Update
-
So yeah, minor updates. MacBook Pro rocks, I now have contact lenses which rock, met cool people online with unbelievably similar taste in… everything. And damn he's cute—he has a fedora!
- Holiday blogging.
-
After suffering from food poisoning at 4:00 this morning (due to questionable vegetable dip) I'm rearing to go despite being pretty darned tired. Panama has finally caught up with me - I remember thinking a month ago that I could hardly wait and now it's approaching far too fast.
