Today is going to be a busy one – a couple of meetings, ton of coding, and sixth grade orientation for Bubs and I this evening.
Wow. We did it. I am now overmy fundraising goal for the Epilepsy Therapy Project for the 2012 Philly Marathon! What a huge relief. Now, I can continue to raise money in a somewhat passive way, concentrate on my training, and just enjoy the journey to another marathon for another great cause. Thank you so much everyone, I am very, very humbled by your support.
Please give if you are able and share your friends and family on Facebook, Twitter, email, everywhere! Do something good today.

Yesterday was a good one – launched two new client sites, got a lot of coding done, helped my son study for his vocab test, and got to read to both of my kids before bed… I’ll call that a good day.
Today, it looks like a nice rainy background soundtrack for a bunch of coding with a nice interruption of lunch with BLP. Bill and I have been trying to do a weekly lunch meet-up that has been evolving into plotting our happiness.
I am now at 89.5% of my fundraising goal! I am running the 2012 Philly Marathon for Abbe and everyone who has had their lives affected by seizure disorders. Please give if you can and share your friends and family on Facebook, Twitter, email, everywhere! Do something good today.

We spent yesterday evening relaxing with a bunch of friends at Beach 3. When we came home, Viv had a surprise Mother’s Day card for Abbe… the last shot is the back of the card, a scene depicting our future wedding, with Bruce escorting Abbe and Viv down the aisle to me. Wow. As my friend Ray put it, this is a “Paycheck from life”.
As of this morning, I am now at 87% of my fundraising goal! I can’t believe the generosity and kindness of my family and friends! I am running the 2012 Philly Marathon for Abbe and everyone who has had their lives affected by seizure disorders.

You Moms out there are important people. Thank you from the son of a great mother, thank you.
Mom and I had dinner together last night at Wasabi and wow, there is something to be said for unplugging yourself from your life and just enjoying an evening with a parent. And by unplugging, that means more than just turning your iPhone to mute, for me that meant having dinner with just Mom. Most folks do Sunday brunch with Mom, and that’s great – but every once in a while, make sure you take Mom out just you and her for dinner. That meant a lot to me and I think Mom liked having my undivided attention for once too. And on top of that, we got to order the sushi that only we like, (as it turns out, Mom and I like the same rolls – that’s where I get my great taste from). I love you Mom.
This is how full I felt after eating all that sushi… probably could have used some burping last night as well.
After only 4 days of fundraising for my running the 2012 Philly Marathon on behalf of the Epilepsy Therapy Project, I am already at 61.5% of my goal! Amazing. Seriously. I think a lot of people saw the video and have responded, but boy, this is a huge relief. While the fundraising has gotten off to a great start, the onus is definitely on me to keep the ball rolling. I am still pondering what color my hair will be dyed and if I’ll do a mohawk… perhaps a big donor would like to have some say on that? Bring it.
One thing I wanted to address was that Abbe and I will be back at Disney, possibly next year. We do have some unfinished business there – Abbe and I need to finish a Goofy Challenge together. And we will absolutely be back with Team in Training running for LLS.
I am running for Abbe and everyone who has had their lives affected by seizure disorders. Please give if you can and share your friends and family on Facebook, Twitter, email, everywhere!
Drive – what a cool movie. Everything is not what you expect – more art house than an action flick, the 80s style titles, the 80s alt techno synth soundtrack, and Albert Brooks as a mob bad guy? Fantastic, loved it.
Moneyball – this movie was great as a baseball fan and as guy that just likes good films. The only thing that was sort of odd to me as a baseball fan, was there was very little mention of the A’s great players on that team: Tejada, Hudson, Mulder, and Zito.
