Have a great day. When the morning comes.

Katherine Elizabeth (Katie) Eichenlaub was born Sunday, February 7th, at 9:50 a.m. by cesarian section. She was found to be breach that morning, and labor was progressing, so there was little choice in the matter. She weighed in at 6 pounds, 2.4 ounces, and was 19.5 inches long at birth. She has an impressive set of lungs.

My gosh a lot can change in a mere 34 weeks. I guess the two newest things are owning a home, and about to be a dad. Those are two pretty hefty developments, I would say. Shelley and I moved from our apartment in St. Paul to a house we bought in Roseville last weekend. The baby (it's a girl) is due on February 25. I've been in my job a little less than a year, and things are really looking up.

I'm pretty sure I'll post again when the baby is born.

Well, it's been some time, but that's what Facebook will do for you. I've been concentrating more on that than posting publicly here.

Work is good. the Ten Minute Play Festival rehearsals for Bedlam are in full swing, and I'm excited to be involved in three of the pieces.

Speaking of that, I've got a rehearsal in a little more than a half-hour. Toodles.

I played in the Midnight Pod Late Friday night (early Saturday Morning). I must say, this go-round went much better than the previous sealed deck posted here. I went 3-1, losing to a Monster Naya deck (double Druid of the Anima) in Round 3.

So, here's the deck.

I of course, welcome insight on what I could have done better. This was a prerelease, and this format will be in use for at least two months.

A couple of months ago, I was doing some errands, and heard a story about Chinese Democracy, the newest ablum from Guns and Roses. The rest of this is best expressed by the writer of the piece, and there is a podcast link. Thanks to the fine folks over at NPR for helping me locate the address of the piece.

I attended the Magic Pro Tour qualifier yesterday, and went 1-3 drop. I don't think it was my playing, as I opened a pretty horrible pool that was neither fish nor fowl nor good red herring. To add insult to injury, I got my own pool back, which I EMPHATICALLY did not want.

With that pool, I built the following deck:

I welcome any feedback on whether I mis-built, and how I can be better.
