Day 20,105
Hey gang, it’s a Thursday night in rural Douglas County. Seems like I have the house to myself for the time being, and I’m kicking back, watching a little Thursday Night Football, the New England Patriots playing host to the Indianapolis Colts. I’m looking forward to the weekend. I have some projects I need to get back …

Day 20,104
It’s Wednesday night in rural Douglas County. I’m weary from my day at work. But, hey, you are the people that read this, and I have a responsibility to write. Two hundred words per day are what I pledged, so that’s what happens. I’m looking forward to the last day of the class I’m teaching. …

Day 20,103
It’s a Tuesday night, and I’m just sort of kicking back here at the house. Some classes are more challenging than others. If you ever get into adult education, you’ll discover that there are some folks that make class more of a challenge than it ought to be. Had a couple of guys spend forty-five …

My focus is drifting. Chiefs have started out the season undefeated, but are now down by ten to the Denver Broncos. Ugh. The Chiefs defense has had a couple of moments, but they can’t seem to wrap up or get decent coverage at just the wrong moments. Meanwhile, the Chiefs offense is making great plays, …

Day 20,101
It’s a Sunday night in rural Douglas County, and the old man is about ready to hit the sack. Maybe after the Steelers lose to the Ravens. Tomorrow I head back to the office, and I’m teaching an Azure class to ten or eleven students, some in the room, some remotes… I think it’s about …

Day 20,100
It’s late on a Saturday night, and I’m home. That’s the single most important thing. Right now I have a five-and-a-half pound Yorkie mix sitting on the ground, looking up at me with the saddest eyes, wondering when I’m going to put this laptop down and give her the lap time she deserves. Lap-dog privilege. …

Day 20,099
Alrighty! Good evening, my future grandchildren. Old fat Grampa Bob finishing up his last night in Orlando, before heading home to Kansas tomorrow morning. A few things. This is my first Airbnb rental. I think next year I’ll get back into a regular conference hotel. It was ok to get away from the conference crowds, but …

Day 20,098
It’s a Thursday night in Orlando, and I decided to stay in. Yeah, it’s a pretty big opt out for me, I know, but my knees are screaming at me, and I’m concerned that walking around Universal Studios amusement park might be just enough to spur the knees on to attempt a military coup of the …

Day 20,097
Wednesday night in Orlando, the third night at the Microsoft Ignite conference. I’m chilling at the condo again tonight. I had an invite to a party, but after the long day at the show, I decided to stay in, again. I’m not a kid anymore. There was a time that I would’ve been the first …

Day 20,096
Greetings! Salutations! What’s shakin’? It’s your old grampa Bob here, reflecting on another day at the Microsoft Ignite conference. So, I started off my day over in the hand=on lab area, where I normally work, taking a look at my practice test offerings. As I went ahead and scheduled myself to take the AZ-102 exam, I …
