I've heard from a couple of people that they've missed keeping up with me here. So here's the summary.

Got married. You probably know this already. Amy and I honeymooned on Vancouver Island, which was relaxing but more expensive than we'd expected. Our 13 week anniversery was yesterday, life is beginning to resume a normal pace.

Went to Chicago for RailsConf. Chicago knocked my socks off, and Amy came, too. We stayed with our friend Meghan, and learned about Midwest hipsterdom. It is like a real city out there.

RailsConf was encouraging, for sure. I rode Amtrak out there with a bunch of developers, met some people I knew only from blogs (and legend, which is a lot like blogs). I'm happy to learn that I'm on the good side of the Bbell curve, Rails-wise.

I've been recording "Alan Singley":http://alansingley.com/ in the basement. The song is called "It's OK When It's Just You and Me"


I've heard a few people talk about the internet lately. You can find my shit *all* over the internet, folks.
