Really, we can quit anytime we want to.
Posted on October 16, 2008 by Dan in kitties, wine.Lily is adorable. What is she sitting in you ask? Our anniversary present to ourselves. That’s actually 2 wine racks, every slot in which were accounted for when they arrived. See below. So, with our ridiculous wine habit, we had long ago outgrown our IKEA wine rack* that we bought when we first moved. All […]

FRUSTRATION. And Portland.
Posted on October 14, 2008 by Dan in friends, travel, wine.I’m supposed to be online grading journals, but the website is really slow. I feel like I’m waiting for each page to load like I have dial-up internet (remember when you used to sign on with AOL and you had the dial-up and connect sounds memorized? Ah, the olden days) So, perhaps I will fill […]

Lists. How I love thee.
Posted on September 15, 2008 by Dan in family, friends, lists, wine.Things that were amazing: 1. Having so many of our friends here for ridiculous amounts of good times. It was nice to be able to really be around people we love in a place we love (for those of you who are slow, that place is here in Berkeley) 2. Getting to take said people […]

50th post. Woot.
Posted on January 29, 2008 by Dan in travel, wine.It really has been a fun month for us out here. Having a car has allowed us to get out and see Northern California beyond Napa Valley. Don’t get me wrong, I could hang out in Napa for days and days, but variation is good. Last Saturday, we drove down to Monterey, which is directly […]

Much apprehension.
Posted on January 15, 2008 by Dan in friends, travel, wine, work.So we are in the precarious place of “I havent updated in so long, that I don’t even know where to start, so I think I’ll put it off until tomorrow.” Clearly, I have been there for a quite awhile. But, instead of starting this post with an apology of why I haven’t posted in […]

Poodle!
Posted on December 17, 2007 by Dan in friends, San Francisco, wine.So, as many of you know, a month ago (yes, it has now been a month. bad friend, bad friend!) Dana came to visit me. She works in admissions at Ohio Wesleyan, and part of her area to recruit is Washington and Oregon – so once a year, she’ll get to take a couple of […]

That’s what I do…I make glass tubes.
Posted on October 9, 2007 by Dan in city walks, food, kitties, wine.So, Rosa left out a very important fact from our walk in the city (our city walk, if you will). One of the points on the tour was the site of Philo Farnsworth’s lab when he was developing all his patents for the first television. This is the best Sportsnight reference I have ever seen […]

Huzzah, Wine!
Posted on August 12, 2007 by Dan in wine.Obviously we spent some time in Napa this weekend, which means wine tasting! I was really excited to see Napa this time of years since the vines are full and it’s picking season. We tried a few different places, but we highly recomend Silverado Vineyards. We liked nearly every wine we tasted, especially since they […]
