Shame to see one of the VvE members walk away before the ALV. I planned to stop at the ALV.
some people always need to moan and complain about something, don't they? Doing stuff for the VvE is incredibly unthankful.

Got Ted some extremely cool shoes!

Olga hiding behind her iphone.

Dauphine by electric light.

Party at dauphine!

in the bus to Amstel to have drinks with my former marktplaats colleagues at predictable Dauphine.

I am bad at explaining why I am saying no, even if partially, to someone. I have the feeling that just saying 'no time' is not enough.
ok... user-error... didn't see the errors in the log. Let's try XLT again... now the right way around.
screwing around with XLT (www.xceptance-loadtest.com). I see it recording, I see it uploading, I just don't see it running!
Polder it is for tonight!

Creating a layered effect with a login box and not disabling the formfields on the originating page gives awesome results!
weird company: www.runtestrun.com their copyright on site goes till 2007, pricing till 2008, blog till 2009. Should I trust them?
Here's a nice site; ever thought you need to be a published author? Go to www.lulu.com and publish your own books!
Checking out Rally's Quality Manager to see if the testcase/testplan module is worth the price. Their bugtracker is definitely not!
It's amazing, despite davids we still have a government. What makes this coalition so spineless they cannot even fall? bananarepublic

Remarkeble: Pope forgives his attacker, yet the Vatican is continuing a legal case against Ms Maiolo. Is that Catholic forgiveness?
Wilders wordt betaald uit belastinggelden, waar betaalt hij Moszkovicz dan weer van? Ook van onze belastingen? Leuk, politiek bedrijven.
@OscarDiele: ik vrees alleen falen, vallen hebben ze in het verleden al aangetoond niet toe in staat te zijn. Helaas.

Just occured to me: there must be someone making a fortune with a factory that makes the laundry-labels for in clothes and stuff. That's awesome!

Awesome, most of our packags have arrived today! Victoria's Secret, Marks & Spencers and Ted's new sleeping bag!

An hour after lunch mister demanded a kaki. Now he's totally happy again!

Ted needed some gel in his hair just like his mommy!

After sleeping and eating the apartment was clearly ready for some more cleaning. While cleaning you obviously call your friends!

Food might also be a good idea, still enjoying the possibility of doing things while Ted is sleeping!
Having a very nice and quiet coffee while Ted is asleep.

Calling while driving. That's not a smart move, usually quite expensive!

Some higher resolution and longer footage of Tedster playing around happily with the "swiffer"-thing

Rendering a nice little movie of Ted cleaning up the house with a ... uhmmm... what do you call a "swiffer"-thing? Well a "Swiffer"-thing...

Tedster happily sweeping the apartment


Ted really has a clear and strong focus when there's a cartoon playing!

Off to look after the ill family. Both Nadia and Ted are not feeling fit :(
Conference call which I am not allowed to join via a mobile phone. That is new...

Going to attempt to make everyone on Spil use one and the same bug tracker rather than having 3 instances of a hopeless tool and Rally.

Going to start shopping for an air humidifier. Seems like a good investment for our family health. Air in this house is really dry.
People are basically idiots. There may be a few exceptions, but I have yet to meet them.
anyone care to explain to me what "Blocking effects of the renin-angiotensin in long-term peritoneal dialysis patients" means?
Just rwas invited to come to a thesis defense titled: Blocking effects of the renin-angiotensin in long-term peritoneal dialysis patients...
Some people should not attempt to write documentation. Especially in my line of work I see a lot of redundant documents not worthy of print.

I guess Ted is painting ...

Getting fed up with the VvE crap seems like people expect us to quit our job and be VvE fulltime they want no involvement but full enclosure

winter landscape now also in hilversum

Getting ready for the trip to Hilversum! Curious to see all the damage this weekend did.

Only thing not working on the EEE is skype calls. Back to my book for the rest of the evening.
Successfully installed Ubuntu on the EEE PC! Now updating and expanding the lean mean system
Had a very nice afternoon with Tania and her family. Looking very much forward to Alexandra's birthday next week

Even the buslane is now white. Did the busses stop driving or did the snow get serious?

Still not seeing any spectacular winterweather here in Amsterdam. Temperature above 0 and hardly any snow.
anyone got tips how to teach a toddler to sleep in, especially in the weekends? I am open for most suggestions.
@tangothanatho hope the poweroutage didn'tcause too much problems?

Here is how awake you can be on a Sunday morning at 7

See if a small movie works as well from the E71

Up and about with Tedster again! This way every weekend is a long weekend!
