Heading home after a great day @nfistudios.com. Much progress has been made. Time to work on other work now.

While I'm getting advice, any recommendation for an OS charting plugin for Rails? I need line graphs. Thanks everyone.

Thanks everyone for the advice on handling clients. Tomorrow will be a fun day. Luckily I don't have to have all the answers.

What do you do when the customer thinks they are right and you know for a fact they aren't? What do you suggest?

Heading home to meet with @blaix. Takeover plans continue. Perhaps over some Chipotle. Getting hungry.

Congrats to @bobwalsh on his new book: "The Web Startup Success Guide": http://ping.fm/ePAY2 I definitely recommend it.

Just upgraded to Evernote premium. Well worth the $45/yr.

After staring at a computer screen for a number of hours, reality can seem kind of strange.

Time for a store run: Red Bull and gummy bears.

On location at the @done21 studios with @nickrp and @jimrhoskins.

Heading home and then to meet up with @nickrp to film @rockthejob. And somewhere in there a Red Bull will come into play.

Any suggestions for a virtual assistant service? Someone recommended Sunday. Anyone else use it? Thanks.

Charts are great. I love charts. Do you love charts? I love data too. Lot's of data.

The new school Palamee goes to has webcams, so I can see her during the day. Makes me miss her more. Does your school have webcams?

Heading home soon and going to work on other stuff after family time. A great end to a very busy day. Busy is good. I get bored easily.

The key is to be decisive and not get stressed out.

Figured out a great solution for making design more agile. The challenge is the varying priorities of design. We've got a solution.

@nfistudios preparing my pitch on making design more agile. Oh yes, I've got a plan.

Heading home and to dinner!

Woohoo! Final grades are in for my MBA, and yes, I am getting a diploma next weekend. Happy days!

Another 5 minute standup with the team. Keeping the conversations until after keeps it short.

Back @nfistudios for the day. More research on agile design in the works. Any good links?

Time to get some rest for tomorrow. Good night all.

And that's it for today. A good night to all. See you in the A.M.

Planning a trip to the TechCrunch50. San Fran here we come!

Watching Anthony Bourdain in Thailand. This show is making me super hungry, and miss Thailand. A great country I highly recommend visiting.

Time to head home. A great night to all!

I have a post lined up for tomorrow about my MBA experience and the value I feel it brings to this entrepreneur.

Sprint retrospective and sprint planning are complete. Life is good and things are on track here @nfistudios. A great day for sure.

Good morning everyone. Up and at em for a new day. This weekend is looking to be busy, and end with a bang. What's on your agenda?

Looking forward to sprint planning @nfistudios in the A.M. and another rockin week.

It's good to sleep in. Looking forward to a great family day today. What to do; what to do :)

Off to @nfistudios for another great day. Looking forward to my lunch meetings, and continuing the work I've started. More ADS goodness too.

Good night world. Time to get some rest and continue the domination in the morning. It is all just a matter of time :)

Orlando is going to be putting up with me for at least another two months. Things are shaping up quite nicely. The WC will have to wait.

Rails is like networking. It's very powerful if you leverage relationships.

I forgot how much I love Rails. It's everything I remember it being. Happy days.

People in the town hall meetings on health care reform aren't afraid to speak their minds. They're pretty pissed.

Prepping the set for this weeks @rockthejob episode.

Checking out the competitive landscape, and looking forward to filming the next @rockthejob with @nickrp today.

Using my MBA.

The MBA program has taught me how to run an existing, large company. Now it's time to apply it to running a smaller, start-up company.

And that's a wrap my friends. One final stands between me, and a diploma and having my Saturdays back.

The biggest lesson that I've learned in my MBA is that I have a lot to learn, and I cannot do it by myself. Quite humbling; very good.

Last day of MBA classes. Presentation today, and then one final next weekend. Then after 12 years of college I'm done! I'm on the long plan.

Wrapping up for the evening and heading off for the evening. A good night to all.

Our daughter one again has "daycare disease." They say it's better now than later. Either way it sucks for everyone. I feel bad for her.

Working on my last MBA presentation with my team. Very exciting.

Looks like I'll be in O-Town for at least another month. Blog posts to come, later. Now it's time to head downtown.

Do you like it spicy? I do. Green curry for lunch my friends. Brain food.

Today's agenda: drop off Palamee at school, work on school preso, call employers, work on marketing plan, drink Red Bull, have fun, and more

Watching Sid the Science Kid with my daughter before I take her to school.

Good morning everyone. Much progress has been made on the job front. Blog post coming soon.

That's enough for one day. A good night to all, and to all a good night.

Any recommendations for the TechCrunch 50 conference? I hear it's a great place to go. Thanks.

Does anyone recommend going to the TechCrunch 50 conference in San Fran? I'm considering it. Thx.

I come back from a great lunch meeting and Twitter is back up. My day is now most excellent.

Heading to @colaborlando for the day.

Good morning everyone. Never know what a day might bring. Today might cause a left turn for me. We'll soon find out. Should be fun.

And that's it for tonight folks. Have a great night.

Thank God for my wife. She keeps me sane. I bet there are many men out there that can say the same :)

I'm starting to find that entrepreneurial experience does not translate well to the corporate world. Blog post to come tomorrow for your .02

Final preparations under way.

Grabbing some lunch and then heading back to read my current book. Time to finish it up and start a new one. What are you reading?

Very excited about the @localdigerati design as well as @scrumd UI updates as well. Now back to work and the job search.

Good morning everyone. This is going to be an awesome and busy day. That is all.

Enough digging for one evening. A good night to all.

Taking a break and doing due diligence for tomorrow's interview. The Internet is all knowing, and serving up lot's of great information.

Time to prep the computer room for the wood flooring. That will be my night, so I bid you all adieu.

Tomorrow is gearing up to be a totally kick ass day.

Great speaking with people who are like-minded on business and values. Today that person is @wolframarnold. Great conversations.

Packing up stuff for the move today and the install of flooring in a few rooms. Call me if you need anything today. Internet will be spotty.

Looking forward to another very busy day. How about you? My agenda: job search, work, school, house. What's on your plate today? Crush it.

Winding down a long day. Time to prep the house for tomorrow's install of hard wood flooring. A good night to all.

First phone interview went well I feel. Now it's time for some late dinner and continuing to move the house around.

And if you're wondering the name of the song in the new Bacardi commercial, it's "Daylight" by Matt & Kim. Great stuff.

Didn't Flash intros to sites go out with the new millennium? Apparently not from what I just saw.

Doing final preparations for an interview call. Very exciting.

Power at the house just flashed big time. Thank goodness for using a MBP and a big UPS.
