The Road to Elysium

Let me just say, I’m sorry for not having replied to your comments. I’ve been pretty away from my blog of late, occupied with real life things, amongst others, weddingplans! I’ll get back to you when time allows it. Until then, I hope stuff on this blog keeps helping you out. :)

This is my first real 2010 post I guess. Tomorrow work awaits, so I’m getting ready for bed as we speak. Bed by ten? Yep, that’s the way of life for someone who has to get up damn early in the morning.

So first of, Tales of Vesperia for the Xbox 360 is -awesome-. I really recommend it for people who like RPG type of games. Also, Marte, the IPod Touch has saved my life. Reading on it with Stanza is awesome.

I’m awaiting Lost Odyssey in the mail, and going nuts!

Now that I’ve whined, over to some gratitude.

Life, right now, is wonderful. I have a wonderful girl by my side, and we have two lovely sons. Our newborn, Noah, seems to be awake more during the night than during the day. But when he opens his eyes, it’s hard to imagine that he is seeing some things for the very first time, and feeling things. Like his dad’s ticklish beard in his face, or his mom’s long hair. Michael is growing every minute, and he’s starting to make decisions for himself, starting to find out who he is. It’s really amazing. I can’t imagine a life without these three, and that is what I mean by a step in the right direction. Things were really difficult for me and the Mrs in the past, but things seem to finally be turning our way. We’re sure working to make it that way. So here’s for 2010, hopefully a wonderful year for our little family.

Introducing Noah Galvarino:

Been wanting to do this for ages really. Here’s what I consider to be the better Firefox addons available:

• Adblock Plus
• Ever been annoyed by all those ads and banners on the internet that often take longer to download than everything else on the page? Install Adblock Plus now and get rid of them.

• MediaplayerConnectivity
• Allow you to launch embed video of website in an external application with a simple click.

• StartupMaster
• Asks for the master password at startup (fixes multiple password prompt).

• Tab Mix Plus
• Tab Mix Plus enhances Firefox’s tab browsing capabilities. It includes such features as duplicating tabs, controlling tab focus, tab clicking options, undo closed tabs and windows, plus much more. It also includes a full-featured session manager.

• Tiny Menu
• Replace the standard menu bar with a tiny menu popup.

• Tree Style Tab
• Show tabs like a tree.

• Xmarks
• Xmarks is the #1 bookmarking add-on. Install it on all your computers to keep your bookmarks and (optionally) passwords backed up and synchronized. Xmarks also helps you uncover the best of the web based on what millions of people are bookmarking.

• Web Developer
• The Web Developer extension adds a menu and a toolbar with various web developer tools.
