First post - what this is about.

This is a blog about the architecture of things - physical, logical, and spiritual - and how they are all connected. Some of it is technical (from things I do at work), but the inspiration for this is my wife - who showed me how there is a whole world outside that matters much more. So, there are a number of things about life in general, and also some pictures of our four furry friends, Pasha, Jasper, Rufus & Lucy. I guess I should also mention it is a tribute to my wife, who passed away in November 2007. She wanted to be a writer and encouraged me and so many others to think about what their dreams truly are and question why we don't try to follow them.
