August is here, and I will be older…

The summer has gone by really damn fast, I honestly haven’t the slightest where June and July went.  Now its August, and my birthday is less than a week away, and wow am I feeling old.  Reaching thirty wasn’t all that bad but knowing that thirty-one is less than a week away has really got me feeling like I should start to look into buying an amigo or a nice walker.
Besides my birthday this coming weekend, the rest of the month is pretty packed as well. Kat and I are going to the Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco the following weekend.  Timing kind of sucks as WordCamp San Francisco is the same weekend.  The company I work for is sponsoring it and I got a pass for it, but I highly doubt I will be able to attend with the music festival and all. Speaking of WordCamp, I took on the responsibility of organizing WordCamp Las Vegas in place of John as he currently doesn’t have the free time to take this on…. though little does he know I am going to make him do all the work ;)
Lastly towards the end of the month I am going out to NYC for the weekend to meet up with the owner and one of the other guys that lives out there.  Will be pretty interesting as I have never been to NYC and well after talking only on the phone and via Skype it will be neat to finally meet them face to face.  I really want Kat to come with me on this trip, but I dont think she’s going to make it.  I might just have to knock her out and stuff her in my suitcase so she will have no choice on going or not.

Macbook Birthday Present

Macbook Pro 13inch

Over my birthday weekend Kat and I took a trip to San Francisco. While we were there we ended up playing with her sisters Macbook Pro. I had been feeling the bug to upgrade from my Macbook, but not having played with the Macbook Pro I couldn’t really justify it…. that was until after that weekend. After using it I knew that I needed to upgrade. So the day after we returned I decided it was birthday present time and I made a trip to the local apple store. Picked myself up a new Macbook Pro 13in (base model), and must say it was a good investment. Not to mention I gave my old Macbook to Kat so she can finally leave the Windows/Dell world she was accustom too.
