Las Vegas, part deux
Posted on March 1, 2009 by Dan in travel.So, we went to Vegas earlier this month. I, for one, am not a HUGE fan of Vegas. I think it has it’s benefits – there are some sights to be seen there that can’t be found anywhere else. There is amazing food, and amazing shows and people acting like complete fools, who have 120% […]

Take five Wednesday.
Posted on February 24, 2009 by Dan in lists, random.Project go vegetarian for a week is complete. I stuck to it (although on Sunday, I got a soup with a base of chicken broth, which I felt bad about later) and had some brisket for lunch. Not really that exciting. I do think I’m going to be eating less meat for awhile. Wow, that […]

I heart grocery stores.
Posted on February 20, 2009 by Dan in food, friends, random.So, this eating vegetarian thing is going fine, although the first two nights totally reduced us to eating like college students. One night, pasta and sauce from a jar. The next night, pancakes and eggs for dinner! Tonight, I think we finally got our act together and made sweet potato and black bean burritos. Feeling […]

Take Five Tuesday
Posted on February 17, 2009 by Dan in lists, random.This week I’m trying to go vegetarian for a week, starting today. We shall see how it goes.

Take 5 Tuesday
Posted on February 11, 2009 by Dan in lists, random.5 things that have made you laugh lately 1. My cats being ridiculous 2. A student tonight at our Hall Association meeting – he wanted to be appointed a position and stood up and read a prepared speech and passed out his resume to everyone. It was adorable/awkward. Don’t worry, I only laughed on the […]

Fur kids
Posted on February 8, 2009 by Dan in family, kitties.Well, the cats are doing well. They’re getting older, not kittens at all anymore, and recently, some of their behaviors have started to change. Lily doesn’t play fetch with us as much (sad face) and James is really not a fan of new people being around. Lily is cuddling more, and James is cuddling a […]

Recent goings on…
Posted on February 6, 2009 by Dan in family, food, travel, work.Well, just to catch everyone up (which apparently is necessary my mom complained today that the blog needs updating)… **My grandmother is doing…OK. She was in the hospital a few days ago for some serious nausea and pain after her first round of chemo – bad news. She had an MRI a couple of days […]

Congratulations…continued
Posted on January 25, 2009 by Dan in friends.So we’ve recently found out that Tommy and Kristen are having a baby boy, and Holly and Chris are having a baby girl! I’m pretty sure we’re still in college. I missed the part about being a grown up. How Tommy got us to the New River Valley Speedway, I’ll never know. Holly in a […]

Two months later…
Posted on January 23, 2009 by Dan in travel.Recap: We love Jack Daniel’s. We spent Thanksgiving in Nashville. The Jack distillery is less than two hours away from there. We visited. It was magical. And onto the photo adventure. So, you arrive, you hop into a tour group, you watch a wonderfully cheesy video about the heritage and history of how Jack is […]

Urban (snooty) Hiking
Posted on January 22, 2009 by Dan in city walks, San Francisco.Dan and I went on walk #3, which was up in the ridiculously wealthy area of SF, Nob Hill. The name would also imply that it is a steep, you know, hilly area. I want you to know that we chose to do this walk after going to a nice lunch (it’s Dine About Town […]
