The Curse of The Bathroom Light Fixture
Thu, Feb 2nd 2012 8:24p Kathy Brown This, my friends, is a tale of woe and despair. A story about a woman and her nemesis, the dreaded bathroom light fixture.
It all began simple enough, as these tales often do. The woman bought a house. A house which may or may not have been built by monkeys. At the very least it was built by incompetent morons and then owned by even more incompetent morons. The woman spent many many hours fixing up the house (you can read some of her earlier frustrations here). It was finally time t [read] Keywords:

Did You Use Business Cards at Lotusphere?
Thu, Jan 26th 2012 9:15a Kathy Brown It occurred to me that I forgot to even bring business cards with me to Lotusphere. While I met several new people, we seemed to exchange Twitter IDs more than anything else, and usually on our mobile devices. Occasionally I entered a new email address or phone number.
Only once during the conference, was I asked for an actual business card. I took one of theirs and wrote on the back of it.

I’m sad. Those of you who have never been wonder how I can be sad about leaving a tech conference, but it is so much more than that. It is much more like an amazing family reunion, where I also happen to learn a ton of stuff.

How To Do Things You Thought You Couldn’t

Learning is a Spiral
Tue, Jan 3rd 2012 8:34p Kathy Brown I love to learn new things. Everyone has their own way of learning and I’ve never really settled on one particular way. Some things you have to learn by doing. Some things you can learn from a book, others with a teacher. Some things have to be seen.
The one thing I have learned regardless of the method is that learning is a spiral. Or a snail shell. This is likely when you wonder if I’ve lost it, but stick with me for a second.

Sun, Jan 1st 2012 10:44a Kathy Brown It’s the new year, and I’ve got some new running goals. First up, I had to update my running log. I’ve been running a lot on the treadmill, which means manual entry (rather than auto-entry from my Garmin). Today will make 2 years and 7 months on the streak. Crazy and I never thought I would go this long.

As a developer, it seems there is always something new to learn. I always tell myself, I need to learn X or Y, or X AND Y programming languages. And of course, I never get around to learning them, unless directly needed for my work.
Well, this year, I resolve to learn a new technology. I’m g [read] Keywords:

Do You Attend LUG Conferences?
Mon, Mar 14th 2011 5:22p Kathy Brown I was just listening to the latest episode of This Week in Lotus and Stuart asked Theo (organizer of BLUG, where I'll be speaking in a couple of weeks) and Warren (organizer of UKLUG, which I'll be attending in May) why should people attend LUGs. It made me think that there are lots of people who do NOT attend LUGs and who maybe don't understand how great LUGs are and it made me wonder why.
I attend them whenever possible. I've attended IamLUG (twice), TriStateLUG and ILUG and as already [read] Keywords: ilug

And Now For Something Completely Different
Fri, Mar 4th 2011 4:24p Kathy Brown As some of you may know, I have had to perform a lot of do-it-yourself home improvements in the last few months.
I'd like to pass along some of the tips I have learned the hardway, because that's what I do.
When the instructions say they require two people (like when assembling bunk beds from IKEA), it isn't actually necessary. However, it's probably easier.

Prepping for SkiLUG

Stop Using Today in View Selection Formula

My second Lotusphere where I dragged along a co-worker, but we still weren't super social. I think we hit Kimonos once for Symphony Karaoke and that was about it.

Nike Women's Marathon - Race Report
Wed, Oct 27th 2010 10:22p Kathy Brown On October 17th, I completed the Nike Women's Marathon. It was my first marathon. It was also day 504 (I think) of my running streak.
Race time was 7AM, starting in Union Square. My hotel was just off the square and I figured on a 6AM arrival. That worked well, giving me time to find the start and the bag drop off and mill around a little bit, but not too long, before the start. It was dark and the weather started out about as perfect as you can get for a marathon, in the low 50s.
