    We visited Piper on our way up to Boston, on Saturday. It seemed like she had settled right into her digs. She had a new crib and everything. She was being very cute and playful. She was a little annoyed at first, since we interrupted her Saturday morning cartoon watching. But overall, she was glad…

    We had a really great weekend in Boston, with our homies. It was the first time that Reagan and I had ever gone up there, for the race. Our good friend Becca ran it yesterday, so we had an extra good excuse to go watch. Some of Becca’s friends have an office that sits about…

    Dear Jake, I went to my favorite oriental restaurant for a bite to eat last night and after my meal I received an odd fortune cookie, it said :”Tem um gato no meu prato”.  I was hopping you could tell me what it means, I take my fortune cookies seriously. –Mizzriam […]

    “Operation Ivy,” is one of Tim Armstrong’s projects. The same perpetually flat voiced Tim Armstrong from “Rancid.”  I guess the genre is probably called ska core. It isn’t really punk or ska. The song that I’m sharing is one of the more ska-like songs from the band. It’s called Bad Town. I love the saxophones…

    Holy crap! Waiting the couple of extra days to see the first race of the 2009 season, was worth it. Stoner won by a solid margin. Rossi finished second, and second year rookie Lorenzo, took the last podium spot. Once Rossi fought his way up through the pack, he was able to keep a consistent…

    Phew. Today was a big day for Piper (and for us). The move went fairly smooth. There was an issue during transport, that caused her to be in a lot of distress when we initially arrived at the new hospital. We were getting kind of worried for a while, because her heart rate was staying…

    I launched a new blog (yes, another one) where I am posting one photo per day. I have several friends who have already implemented this idea: T. Truscott, Well Shoot, and (oh dear, I just realized that the name of mine is very similar to the next one. Sorry Kendra), Three Sixty-Five. Some of the…

    This is a pretty big week for us. Piper is moving tomorrow. I’m very anxious to see that goes. Reagan and I have both taken the day off work for it. We are hoping that she makes a smooth transition, and that we can leave the new place feeling comfortable about her new environment. In…
