There’s big news in the O’Brien household! Kelly and I are expecting our first baby! She is now 12 weeks pregnant and we’re expecting our new addition, nicknamed “The Niblet”, around July 12th. The “all-day” sickness has been pretty rough on Kelly so far but it seems like it’s starting to subside.

I’ve got the sonogram pictures up on the gallery and expect more every month. It should be a heckuva ride. =)

Here’s a great write-up on who is to blame for the current economic crisis:

My dad got up on stage at the Ryman Auditorium, the original home of the Grand Ole Opry and belted out a tune. See it on YouTube:

I’ve made a couple changes to the site but you shouldn’t be able to notice what they are.

1. I’ve moved hosting providers. I used to have my own linux co-located in a secret datacenter somewhere in LA. However, my free-loading days are over and I had to move to hosting provider. I’d tell you which one but I want to see how good they are before I start plugging them.
2. I’ve migrated the blog from MovableType to Wordpress. So far, I’m impressed with Wordpress. I’m not much of a blogger but it’s got a lot of features I find useful.
3. I’ve moved my mail to Google Apps. It allows me to use the Gmail interface for my mail and get Google’s SPAM protection. So far, so good.

Hopefully none of these changes you will actually notice, because if you do then I didn’t do my job very well.

Since I’m moving out of the 323 and into the 310, I figured it was time to move my cell phone as well. So, if you don’t have my new cell number, send me an e-mail and I’ll send it to you.
