My son, Eli, had surgery over the weekend to repair his cleft pallet (roof of the mouth). Ouch! He has been "just ok" ever since the anesthesia wore off. He's so cute, but I feel bad for him.



He looks pretty sad, this was taken a couple days ago. I hear from my wife that he is doing better today. =)

So yeah, I'm sitting here at my desk at work and I get a phone call:

"Hi. Is this Jon Kiddy? My name is Kevin, I'm from Google and I'd like to talk to you about a document you downloaded regarding Corporate Compliance. Are you able to make decisions regarding compliance at Roswell Park?"

I said, yeaaaah, I just browsed a document on compliance recently (I think yesterday) about compliance for PCI regarding SSL. But I'm just a programmer, just hunting down some info like I do everyday as part of my job when needed.

He said, oh ok. Can I send a follow up email to you to pass along to your superiors regarding corporate compliance?

Sure, why not...

So yeah, I then get an email sent to my Roswell email (which I never game them) saying thanks for the small talk, here is his contact info. Apparently Kevin is the Regional Marketing Representative for North America from Google Enterprise...

I mean, where did this guy get my phone number, my email, and my name from? And more importantly, how did he know I was looking up that stuff recently?

Well, as a programmer, it is easy to guess where since Google is slowly taking over the world one Google Search at a time.

Scary stuff, imo.

This past Saturday my step-brother got hitched.

When my brother first mentioned that he wanted to get married on my parents property I thought to myself that it might be a bad idea, since the grounds weren't in good shape. However, since then, my step-brother and step-father spent a lot of time and money making the grounds wedding worthy. I think they did a terrific job. I wish I had before and after pictures to post.












The last pic is my daughter, I just had to throw it in, cause she's cute. =)

So, I decided to get my butt into the gym and have been going steadily for almost two weeks now. (I've had a membership at the BAC for months, so I didn't jump in on the local program you guys are into.) Anyways, after deciding to do this regularly, I apparently have time in my schedule to go 6 days a week.

So here is how I'm currently breaking up my weekly routine.

Monday: jogging outside around my neighborhood (during the summer)
Tuesday: gym (upper body workout)
Wednesday: jogging outside again
Thursday: gym (lower body workout)
Friday: swimming
Saturday: gym (upper body workout)
Sunday: rest

However, I'm no expert when it comes to this kind of stuff... anyone have suggestions? I'm such a workout newbie.

(e:enknot) says I should be focusing on eating better. I should probably do some research on this one of these nights.

Anyways, I'm pumped about going back (pun intended, hur hur).
