Guess who’s gonna be a daddy?

Dec 262005

I’m finally "allowed" to say it because we told our parents. I’ve known for a month actually. Heather is 9 weeks pregnant with our first child and I can’t be more excited. I even made a stocking for "Number One" mostly as a joke but I put an absolute beginners C# (programming) book in there too.

Heather has been constantly sick but hopefully that will subside soon.

Of course this changes things for the wedding, and we’ll probably have to do it sooner than expected. We’re thinking about doing it in Vegas with immediate family present then having a reception back home. Who knows. Need to get TEO 3 out first.

I’m really happy to be starting a family with her. I can’t wait until "D day"!

It’s official… I’m engaged!

Yesterday I asked my girlfriend Heather to marry me and she said yes so we are officially engaged. There is no date set at the moment but it will be within a year. I wanted to wait until TEO 3.0 was finished but it’s been taking longer than I hoped and I couldn’t wait any longer.

Heather is a great woman and I am very lucky to have her. I don’t think things will be too much different since we already live together but now I can feel better about us working on a family which is the next step.

Great news from Rob Bushway regarding Maggie!

Rob Bushway is a good friend of mine. He even recently helped me out in a big way that may have saved TEO by going to bat for me with some of the Infinotes issues I had.

So I am always glad to hear good news about Maggie, Rob’s daughter who has (had actually…) brain cancer and has been on a really brave and inspirational road to recovery. A few months ago she was declared “cancer-free” after several risky procedures and now she’s making great progress in getting back to her normal self. Go read Rob’s post about it because I can’t really capture the relief and joy he must be feeling.

I’m going to Microsoft!

May 032004

I didn’t want to post anything until it was confirmed and today it was confirmed! I will be going to Microsoft to meet the Tablet PC team and Office team from May 11-15th. I am very excited to have been invited. As most of you know, I am a huge Microsoft fan and I have devoted most of my life to mastering Microsoft platforms and technologies. I’ll be sure to post detailed accounts of my visit. Special thanks to Arin Goldberg for inviting me!
