  • We have some serious follow through issues.

    Posted on December 4, 2007 by Dan in travel.

    Clearly, the every day posting lasted for what, two weeks? Well, at least it was a good run. I think we should stop focusing on the fact that we didn’t post last week, and focus on the time when we were posting constantly. The glass is half full! A for effort! I want you to […]

  • Saturday?

    Posted on November 25, 2007 by Dan in family, travel.

    So, I kind of forgot that today was the UVA/VT game – what a bad bad fan I am. It was a big game! Decided who would play for the ACC Championship! Good thing we won. Apparently, it was quite the good game. Hooray for our season not being over. However, the polls are all […]

  • Happy Turkey Day! Part 2

    Posted on November 23, 2007 by Dan in family, food, friends, kitties.

    Did you know that a bear can suddenly become a bird and it eats worm pie baked in Dora the Explorer’s oven? I didn’t, but it’s true! It’s true… again, and again, and again. Also a blue wagon filled with a mop, swifter, and vacuum accessories becomes the Blue Cleaning Truck that drives in circles […]

  • Aeroplane.

    Posted on November 22, 2007 by Dan in family, travel.

    Yes, we’re in Nashville, yes we travelled on the day before Thanksgiving. I don’t know how many other people have heard that this is actually the busiest travel day of the year, but I definitely have, so it makes perfect sense that I, who don’t especially like crowds, and slow moving people in airports, should […]

    Posted on November 20, 2007 by Dan in friends.

    So, at the tail end of grad school, and then especially since moving out here, I’ve become one of those people who read a lot of other people’s blogs. Sit back and let me tell you the tale. It all started with one blog that I stumbled upon while looking up restaurant reviews while we […]

  • Viva Las Vegas

    Posted on November 19, 2007 by Dan in travel.

    This was Kristin’s third time to Vegas, but my first, so you’ll hear our tales from my virgin eyes. Vegas is a strange town, there’s drugs, sex, and rock and roll. Oh yea, and there’s gambling too. I think there are many different ways you could see Vegas, and I’m thrilled with how we saw […]

  • Putting it all out there.

    Posted on November 18, 2007 by Dan in friends.

    So remember the other day when I told you that I got Season 4 of the West Wing for my birthday from Dan? It’s now almost 4 in the morning, and I’ve been up watching episode after episode. In my defense, I feel like I haven’t seen these episodes in a really long time. And […]
