Please stop sending $0.00 receipts to me via email for free updates to iPhone apps that I have previously installed. Thank you.

I know I haven’t written much. It’s been crazy. We have the house on the market. Supposedly, there has been one showing, but they didn’t leave a card and we haven’t heard from our agent on whether they actually opened the lockbox or not. He says there is a ton of interest on our house, though. I guess that’s good.
I’ve also been devoting a lot of time to shooting and, when I can’t be at the range, collecting supplies and accessories for shooting and surfing shooting forums. I got an awesome range bag, 3 more magazines for my XD (total of 6 now–whoo hoo), and I detail stripped my Makarov and replaced the trigger, trigger bar, firing pin, and recoil spring. I’m hoping some new, tighter fitting parts will help it be more accurate. It’s “Ok” but all the Makarov fans on the interwebs claim these are some of the most accurate little pistols around. I don’t expect bullseyes at 25yds, but I’d like it to group like my XD at 7-12yds (3 inches with no bench resting).
Lastly, work has been tough lately. Yesterday, I finally released Safe Eyes 5.2. A few months ago, AIM updated their software to use an encrypted connection. At that point, all of our code for logging AIM chats quit working because the data is encrypted by the time we see it. Working with some of the great people at AIM and some very different (to me) technologies and architectures, we were able to get AIM chat logging working again, but it was a long road. I was working in an area I was not at all familiar with. I can honestly say that this was the toughest project that I’ve worked on in my time at InternetSafety. It is rewarding to finally release it, though.
That’s it for now. I know I say this a lot, but I’ll try to be more regular about posting. Of course, baby is coming in a little over a month, so it’s going to get crazy again.
