Bloglines...Kinda...Sucks

For years now, I have been using Bloglines as my blog aggregator - it's usually pretty good, but lately there have been more and more problems, and the past two days, it's been completely dead slow - I can't really read all of the blogs that have been piling up (aggregating if you will) during my trip - this sucks, and I am going to finally bite the bullet and migrate my entire feed list to a feed aggregator that doesn't completely suck. Any suggestions?

So...I Am Married

Yeah, that's right...married. Pretty awesome - all those months and months of planning and errands and craft making, the trips to reception sites, to Paper Source, the printing press we were running out of our guest bedroom - it's all done! We are married. It was a wonderful day - Hannah be damned. It rained on our wedding day, which it WAS NOT supposed to do. When I say rained, that would be kind of an understatement, because it was like Noah's Ark weather. Jena wasn't pleased, and we didn't get a ton of pictures outside like we had hoped, but we did get some. The ceremony was outstanding - the church was beautiful, Father Byrne delivered an exceptional homily, and we delivered our vows to each other without too much stuttering! What a great moment - a feeling of joy, fulfillment, and relief. Jena was absolutely beautiful. I stood up there with my best friends in the world. We promised ourselves to each other for forever. I wish my father could have seen it. He would have been proud.


We took off for the reception, which ended up being great as well. The food was delicious, the space was great, and all the little touches that Jena spent so much time on really made the day all that much more special. I must admit that as a guy who doesn't appreciate arts and crafts and details, once you saw it all in motion, it was really really impressive - I hope all the people who attended the reception liked it, and had a good time. I had a lot of people taking pictures for us (for free) in addition to the photographer we hired. We have so many memories that we will be able to relive over and over again thanks to all these talented amateurs. Here's one of the best of the non-professional shots (kudos to Eric):


More to come later on the honeymoon, sports, and what I missed while I was gone (holy crap Sarah Palin!) - just wanted to recap an amazing day and thank everyone who joined us to make it so special.

Funky Eclipse Error

Thought I'd post this since I didn't see anything on the interwebs to solve my problem:

Background:
Mac OS X - Leopard
Eclipse 3.4 Ganymede

I installed an Eclipse update today to SVNKit (not really sure of the version), and upon doing so, when restarting the app got the following error:

The eclipse executable launcher was unable to find its companion shared library

I did a bit of research and only found references to Windows issues on milestone builds of 3.3. I decided to open up the Eclipse package contents in Eclipse.app, and checked eclipse.ini, since it's often the culprit for weird startup errors.

I had the following line:

../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.carbon.macosx_1.0.100.v20080509-1800
-startup

I no longer had that folder but I did have a folder pointing to 1.1.1.....

I updated the directory to point to the directory that DID exist, and voila, it worked! Hopefully if anyone else runs into this this will help...
