Blog First. Ask Questions Later.

Some Positivity... For a Change

Someone recently replied to one of my posts, with the question “Why so negative?”  It's made me reflect a bit, and although, to me, a bit of skepticism and negativity is healthy, being positive is really the way to go, in the karma-esque grand scheme of things...

So, without further ado, here are a bunch of un-related things that for some reason, I'm very positive about right now..

Um.  Okay.   This is hard.  It's funny, but it's much easier to be negative and to bitch about stuff.  I don't consider myself negative in real life... But something about this blog brings it out in me.  Okay.  The positive juices are starting to flow... Here we go...

The new Wes Anderson movie, The Life Aquatic is out soon!  Hooray!

Joel on software's latest post rocks.  What a good writer!  I think he's my new hero.

I'm finally honing my blog list to a point where every day, I am pumped by what I read about .NET and Web Services.

I just used Jeff Key's Ruler for the first time in months..  And it's still darn cool.  I love measuring things.

Thank goodness for Gmail.  And Google in general.

My stocks are up!

There.  I thought I'd get this nasty business of positivity out of the way, so I don't have to make any related new years resolutions in the next few weeks, beyond the typical “go to the gym“ ones.
