AppFuse at the Denver JBoss User Group

Last night, I presented "Seven Simple Reasons to use AppFuse" at the Denver JBoss User Group. I was definitely surprised to present this talk to a packed room of developers. One person joked afterwards that there might've been a lot of Microsoft folks there, all fearing that Vista was going to doom their future. It was at a Microsoft building, so I guess it's possible. This presentation is similar to my developerWorks article with the same title.

Boys Weekend

Julie and Abbie left on a jet plane this morning to spend the weekend in South Carolina. Abbie's best friend, Annabelle, moved there in May of this year. Julie thought it'd be fun to get them together again, as well as attend a Doodlebops concert. So the girls are off, and it's me and the boy for the weekend. We plan on having a great time.

First off, the new Light Rail opens today and Jack loves trains. So we're going to hit the grand opening in about an hour, and then he's going to join me in "going to work". I don't know how long he'll last in the office, but I'm sure he'll have fun regardless. Tomorrow, there's a DU hockey game, as well as free passes on the Light Rail all day. Should be a fun weekend, especially with all of the good football on tap. Now it's time to head out for some pancakes and eggs, I'm not much of a cook when Mommy's out of town. ;-)
