How did we get to March 9th so quickly?

Almost everyone on my teams at work will tell you I rarely know what the correct day of the week is. I simply just go about a task list working to make sure the ever-changing list of items is complete. Today however, I realized while staring at my iPhone and testing and application, that the iCal app said today was the 9th. I sat staring at the little phone for a bit and then realized it was March 9th and even beyond that, it was 2010. When did that happen?

I remember writing a story when I was in the 4th grade about how old I would be when we flipped to the year 2000. I was going to be 28 years old and I was sure we would all be able to fly by then so a great deal of my short story had roots in this ability.

This afternoon as I sit here realizing it is 2010, I am 38 years old. We still can't fly. I'm disappointed. It would save me a lot of time getting to work and home if we could have figured out the flying on a personal hover-craft by now. Hmmmm. Maybe by the time I am 48? Oh who cares. I am retiring at 50 so why would I want the last 2 years to be a commuting breeze?

I digress....

I hate that time goes so quickly. I worry about getting older. I don't want to be old. I don't want physical ailments. I want a lifetime of moments with Jenn and anything less than a million years is too short.

I'm almost 40. I have always thought it would be difficult for me to take but today I realize that while I can't stop it from happening, I will embrace it because 50 is just around the corner and that seems far worse.

March 6th Bike Ride

It was another great day for a bike ride. I headed out on my 2010 Trek 6700 hardtail and today hit the Laguna Canyon Trail. I ran into a few spotty showers but the ride was MIND CLEARING!

Bike ride in Irvine

I had an awesome bike ride today on my new Trek 6700 hardtail. It is a fantastic bike. The trail was challenging with lots of hills and winding paths. It was a good first outing.

PriceGrabber iPhone App

Dear Apple,

Please pick our app as a Staff Favorite or as a Featured App.

That's right! I have no shame. If you are an author, wouldn't you want Oprah to pick your book for her Book Club? Well, I'm happy to announce PriceGrabber has released its first iPhone app and this is truly a labor of love on my part. I have dreamed, cursed, laughed, smiled and completely enjoyed every single moment of this project.

This is just an initial entry into the app world. We will be releasing a much more interesting version in January but we can use all of the happy thoughts out there.

If you have an iPhone, give it a spin.....click here

I'd love to hear your feedback and please Apple.....pick Us! ;)
