At 0600 SGT, I should be departing Singapore, heading back for the good ole U S of A.
My term with Barclays has passed, and I’m heading away from Singapore as quickly as possible

an awesome visit
Monday, November 2, 2009
but not long enough
My fiancee boarded her flight back to Kentucky this morning (Singapore time). Her three week visit was a blast: we did a weekend trip to Perth Australia, hit the Singapore resort island of Sentosa twice, and a bunch of other little stuff.
We have pictures on facebook of both Perth and [...]
29 starting
Friday, October 2, 2009
It’s after 23:23 Eastern time on the 2d of October 2009.
This means I’ve completed my 28th year.
This next one promises to be even more exciting
food allergies are no fun
Tuesday, September 15, 2009
I’m allergic to the raw forms of several things: celery, honeydew, watermelon, cucumber, apple, hand melon, plum, banana - and probably more that have slipped my mind.
If they’re cooked, they’re fine. Or if they’re coated in dressing or citric acid (like in a fruit salad with oranges).
Anyways – it does cut into what I can eat [...]
one month update
Saturday, September 12, 2009
It’s been a month since I last posted on my weight loss attempts.
From a month ago, I’ve dropped 11 lbs. For my metric-bound acquaintances: I have no idea, so look it up
Now I have a good (but somewhat costly) problem – I need new pants
wedding plans
Friday, September 4, 2009
Have begun.
I just got a site setup for my fiancee and I to keep our friends and family up-to-date on what’s going on: http://warrenmyers.com/wedding/.
And yes – she picked the blog theme
more help from stackoverflow
Thursday, September 3, 2009
I realize I asked this question a while back, but in reviewing some of my history, I was reminded of how helpful the site has been for a variety of issues.
And I’m sure that questions like this one regarding VMware and VPNs is something “I should have known” – but not knowing where to look [...]
yet another on the weight loss bandwagon
Wednesday, August 12, 2009
Along with I’m sure others on planettrilug, I’ve been working on losing some of my heft.
I’ve gone back and forth on caring for a long time, but now have some incentives beyond just “it’s good for me”.
My first month in Singapore I dropped ~11 pounds. The 4 weeks after that were only an additional 2.5, [...]
groceries
Tuesday, August 11, 2009
Such a simple purchase. But having a longish commute (ie, one that involves walking in tropical heat) means that I don’t like to get much in the way of cold items unless I can get them home quickly.
Stateside, I’d carry them to my truck, drive the mile to my apartment, and be good. Here – [...]
denita smith, 1981-2007
As I mentioned a few days ago, I was a juror on a trial. That trial was the State of North Carolina vs Shannon Crawley in the unlawful death of Denita Smith on 04-Jan-2007.
Miss Smith’s fiancee, Jermier Stroud, was implicated by the defendant. Mr Stroud is a police officer in Greensboro. Under oath, and [...]
