Got back from Rails Edge last weekend and it was great.
2006 has to be my busiest year yet. This included working at a startup, bringing a product from scratch to sales within 8 months. This has involved pretty exclusive use of Ruby on Rails with javascript and it has been awesome.
I am still commuting across Texas on the weekends, but will be reducing this commute to twice a month for 2007. Hopefully give me some time to get some other things done.
I was out ill most of December and part of January, so I got a bit behind in my communications. I should be caught up soon.
Oh, and the most awesome news is that my oldest daughter (Angela) had a beautiful son (Ashton Thomas) in October. He weighed in at 4 lb. and 15 oz.. A bit of stress at first, but he is doing fine now. Pretty amazing being a grandfather.
