For a long time I’ve been wanting to post something on my blog again, but I just haven’t figured out how to phrase things. There are a lot of things on my mind, and don’t get me wrong, it’s not like nothing has happened. It’s just that there are so many thoughts flying through my head that I don’t know where to start.
As you probably have noticed, my blog resides now on jorge.fbarr.net, and not jorge.ulver.no. fbarr.net will be something my whole family can use, while ulver.no was more of a “I want to register that domain!” sort of thing.
I really appreciate all the feedback I’ve been getting on both Fedora 10 on the Acer Aspire One and Acer Aspire One Tips and Tricks. I can’t really answer everything though, I wish there were more hours in a day! Even if I don’t reply, rest assured that I read everything, and things I find appropriate will eventually be added to the article, credit to the people contributing. :) I’m going to write a post about how to flash the BIOS on your Acer Aspire One, as well as how to set up Varnish Cache to work with your WordPress, all coming up soon.
Now to something a bit more serious, which I’ve wanted to get off my mind for a while. A month or two back Marte was pregnant. We were really really happy that Michael would have a baby sister or brother. Unfortunately, she had a miscarriage, and though it had only been a couple of weeks, it affected us greatly. To make matters worse, a week or two back, Michael slipped on the kitchen floor, and hit his head on a cupboard. He was knocked out unconcious, so we had to call an ambulance to get us to the hospital. It was that bad. If you’ve never had children, you will never really know what fear is til you see one of them in such a state. His eyes were rolled backwards, his mouth kept opening and closing, and he wasn’t reacting to anything. It was a horrible experience, and god knows how I keep replaying that moment inside my head. But there’s no other option than to think positive. He is just fine now, more lively than ever, and that’s something to hold on to. Because if you keep replaying those type of things inside your head for long enough, it will seriously damage you. It certainly has for me.
It has really been an eye opener. Appreciate the time you have with your loved ones. Who knows when one day they might be snatched from you. As much as a Hollywood-movie-quote it sounds, it’s true. I know.
