At cf.Objective(), and I'm no longer CF_Heavy...

I arrived in Minneapolis this afternoon, and am waiting for the fun to begin for CFObjective. My presentation is on Friday, What to Do When OO Fails You in ColdFusion. It should be interesting, and I'm looking forward to presenting it.

If you are reading this on my Blog, you'll see that I've finally got the last couple of kinks out of the new design, and I've just uploaded it. I found the Notepad theme at Skinpress. I made several mods to it, including the background from the main column is completely different, a few font differences and many of the icons are different as well.

Weight loss update: As of last Sunday, I have lost a total of 94 pounds since June, and 51 of that since the surgery on 2/27. I'm probably down even more as I write this, but until I get on the scale, I won't know for sure.

With that, I am retiring the CF_Heavy name of this blog. I may STILL be heavy, although a lot less heavy, and you will see that those days will soon be over. It no longer seems appropriate, and I will discard that just like I have the clothes that used to fit me only a few months ago that are now WAY too big.

UPDATE: I've finally uploaded a pic, which you can see here.

Hey Brian, I like the new design of your blog! It's a nice refreshing change from the (almost) base install you had before. Kudos!

Thanks, Aaron. The old design needed to go.

Grats on the new design, and of course your successful surgery and life changes around that. I, too, would like to see a picture of your progress. :)

Thanks, Adam. When I get a picture, I'll post it up. I know of at least one picture that's been taken, but I haven't been given a copy yet.
