How’d I get so lucky?


Not again, still. (See manduh’s comment below). I took two pictures in one night. Sarah didn’t like the first one so we did a supplemental which, on second thought, should have been the one and only picture. I did pick a good seat, even if the ladies pictured here are very happily taken by people who aren’t me. Manduh is right about one thing, this shirt is out of control. Even for me, it’s a little too colorful. The nice thing, though, is that it matches all the colors I put in my hair. I stay away if my hair is red but all the rest are happily coordinated with this shirt.

Goodbye Mike! (for a little while)


We’re giving Mike a mini going away party tonight. He is doing what most people can only dream of and taking 4 months off of work and going to live abroad. I’m don’t know exactly where he’s going and I’m not sure he does either but I think he’s hitting 5 continents. Africa and Antarctica seem to be off the list. For the rest it just seems like he’s going to bounce around and just have some good experiences and in the process make me unbelievably envious (or is it jealous, I can never get those straight) I have no ill will towards him I just really wish I could do what he’s doing. Bon voyage, dude.

California dreamin’


Our dear friends, Hope and Don, moved…nay, abandoned us and moved to LA. They made up for it though by inviting us out to LA for Halloween weekend for what could loosely be called a housewarming. More specifically it’s hanging out and drinking beer on their new back porch, playing with the dog and keeping an eye out for their wild yard rabbit, Mikey.

Mattapalooza IV


Happy birthday, Matt! Every year Matt’s (not Malex Matt, a different one) birthday becomes somewhat of a grand celebration. It falls on the leading edge of a whole lot of stuff after a bit of a lull and as such things can get a little crazy. Crazy mostly happened last night though and today it’s just a great pool party at Sharee and Kim’s new place. They have a pool with nice big living room and family room areas connected by a kitchen. I’m not sure they know it or not but we’ve found our new party venue.

Monday at ye olde Blue Martini


Surprise, surprise, Hope is back in town for the week so it’s time for a very brief Blue Martini drink and dinner with those who showed up. It’s a light crew today. I’m not really sure where everyone else is but we can have fun without them, regardless. I was planning on being home reading tonight because my stack is growing but the books will wait. They’re patient like that.
