to blog or not to blog...is no longer the question

I have recently tried out WordPress for my requirements. I fell in love with it just about immediately. Miko has expressed disgust at my trolling, but really, I haven't even started flaming other products. Not that I plan to. After all, I have started web logging in LJ, so there's /dev/null chance that I'll favor another over this one.

I'm giving myself a few more weeks to play around with it. I'm just happy that I have a server that I can commandeer at any time. I'll be content if an application I need uses GPL, and as long as I am afforded a high level of customization.

Valentine Surprise

Each year, on Valentine's day, I usually surprise my darling wife with a letter/card, or a bouquet of roses. As it was a yearly thing, I knew she sort of expected these surprises; she'd look surprised, but I knew she wasn't really. Occasionally, she does get surprised.

Last night, after my daughter gave me and my wife her home-made Valentine greeting cards, my wife started chiding me about what I was going to give her the next day. I gave her my usual "I'm not telling" smile and silently kicked myself. I wished I already had something ready, and I found myself already longing fo

Christmas 2013

We decided to go to Cebu and spend Christmas this year with my parents and brother. I suppose it has been more than 15 years since we last celebrated Christmas together. The trip was really stressful because it was passenger season. But it was really worth lugging heavy bags since the cousins got to goof off and have a lot of fun, and the grandparents got to see all of their grandchildren in one place. I've included most of the pictures I've taken with my phone in the gallery below. The first few ones are some of the auto-awesomed pics generated by Google. These animated gifs are posted full-size because Wordpress strips off the frames when it generates the smaller versions of these pictures. After having seen these in one place, I now wish I took more burst shots, especially the ones with Papa and Mama. I guess they'll have to be content with the non-animated regular pictures.
