After spending most of Cinco de Mayo hung over (and, probably, still more than a little buzzed from drinking until 0500 the night before), Liz and I met up with long-lost high school friend dendacien to do a bit of catching up, then it was off to the airport for the red-eye back to Cleveland.
Mercifully, […]

Saturday started off a lot lazier than expected, and since there were no immediate plans, I spent a while shooting photos of Julia and Valentine soaking up the sun in our bay window. I’m quite pleased with the results, and the right side […]

Had a lovely weekend.
Gorgeous day yesterday, perfect for taking care of some last-minute errands and running down to West Point Market with Karla to pick up groceries for Liz’s birthday dinner.
Did some errands with Liz today (frame shop, Radio Shack, etc.), enjoyed helping set up her Tivoli iPod radio gizmo, played some Wii (the Rayman: […]

Had a nice chance to take a deep breath this weekend and get caught up on some stuff around the house, mostly chores like raking and cleaning that slide all too easily when life is crazy.
But I also managed to start getting traction on rating, sorting, tagging, and uploading photos from our increasingly less-recent trip […]

Dear reality,
Sod off. We’ve quite enjoyed ignoring you this weekend.
Friday: Infinity, bubbles, cheese, and “Galactica”.
Saturday: Sleep, wine tasting, the tasting menu at Nemo.
Sunday: Stayed in bed all day, sleeping, watching movies, sleeping, catching up on Cerebus and Flight, leftover Indian food in our PJ’s, snuggling by the fire and listening to […]

Liz and I took a well-deserved three-day weekend trip to Ann Arbor to celebrate our anniversary a little early. It’s hard to believe that six years of marriage have gone rocketing by so quickly!
Friday night we enjoyed a good wander around downtown Ann Arbor, discovered, to the peril of my credit cards, the Vault […]

My recent vacation photos hiatus is in part due to spending last weekend being all responsible and grown-up and stuff–Laura, one of my nieces, came to visit us for the weekend. Note the use of the word “my,” a big step for me, as for most of the past seven years, the girls have […]

Chilling with the World Cup, Great Lakes “Holy Moses”, a cat snuggled up to me, and surfing for high-efficiency light bulbs and reading web comics…
Ah, good times. Good times.

Music:Brazil vs. France

After far too much not-blogging, I think I’m hitting the point where the withdrawal is really starting to bug me, so I guess I’d better take care of that.
Work is fairly unmentionable; I pulled a few 12-hour days last week, which I should probably stop doing if I’m going to be the only one (as […]

Luckily, fortunately, thankfully, I’ve had a string of pretty good days lately.
Liz had to work for most of Saturday, so I used the time to knock a bunch of things off my to-do list, including a trip to the library to refresh my influx of new music, and a half-day of being able to work […]
