  • Just like the menu pic

    I had to take a picture of my dinner tonight. This is the first time in my life that the food I ordered actually looks just like the picture in the menu.

  • Go Jorge

    For the second race in the 2008 GP season, Jerez Spain will be the venue. Although Stoner has been impressive during practice (and tends to kick it up a notch in the actual race), this is Jorge Lorenzo’s home turf. This is his first season racing in the premier class, after taking the title in…

  • One week until Sunshine and Beach

    Man, our trip to PR will not be here a moment too soon. I’m jonesing for it so hard. A bunch of crap that I ordered online came in, over the last couple of days. CCS.com was having a huge sale. So I got some new board shorts, inter alia. I was trying on my…

  • Positus Mentius

    For the title, I just tried to make up some crap that sounded like “positive mental” in Latin. In actuality, it probably means “mucus deposit” or something like that. Lately, I have found myself a little overwhelmed and listing slightly to the negative side, on the attitude-o-meter (another made up word). When this occurs, I…

  • One Giant Roller Coaster

    I have been listening to a lot of late 80’s and early 90’s music lately. Most of it is the stuff that I listened to in Jr. High and the beginning of High School. One of these fine tracks on the JPod is by Bauhaus (yeah, remember them?). I was being very amused by the…

  • MMMmmmmm Cinnamon

    I know it was an intense weekend because I was typing in the title of this post, and for some reason cinnamon looked wrong. I had to spell check it and everything. this is not a recent photo, by the way. I just tried to find one that looked kind of springy, or eastery or…

  • Happy Easter!

    We got up bright and early to come visit Piper before church today. Reagan dressed her all up in her new easter dress. It was a little bit big. But Piper didn't mind and neither did we. We are looking forward to having Easter dinner at the Halls with our friends. We wish that piper…

  • Burriger and Peeps Cake

    Last night I finished up work at a pretty reasonable hour, so Reagan invited me to dinner at Brother Jimmy’s BBQ. We both love that place and it isn’t too far from her work. So I went up to meet her and waited in her salon as she finished her last appointment. It was pretty…

  • Starbucks opens new store in Starbucks bathroom

    I can’t help but pass on some good Starbucks humor. I’m sure that Pete and Kristin can appreciate this one http://www.theonion.com/content/node/29030

  • Happy Vernal Equinox

    Oh my goodness, I am getting so excited for the spring. I bought a new skate deck when I was in UT for Lacy’s wedding and I still haven’t had a chance to use it. I almost did one night about a month ago. I went to skate with the kids at the GW bus…
