    Piper, although clearly still in need of lots of rest and recovery, was acting a lot more like her usual self, yesterday. I took the day off, and Reagan didn’t go into work until 1. So, we were both able to spend a lot of time hanging out with her. It was so fun to…

    These little guys have graduated from eating random detritus to eating ground up veggie flakes. They are also looking like actual little fish, instead of tadpoles or something. They still don’t have a lot of color. But they are very cute and curious. When I get close to the tank to look at them, they…

    The oversized format of W Magazine lends itself to several peripheral applications, such as the one illustrated above.

    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…

    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…

    Reagan and I have been watching the pair of Convicts in our fish tank, flirt and dig for the last couple of weeks. They have emptied all of the substrate from an area of about 1 square foot, in the back corner of the tank. They piled it all up around their little nursery, like…

    I’m pretty excited about this purchase that I made this morning. I didn’t end up getting a 50D, like I originally wanted But I think that a 40D will do just fine for now. Thanks everyone who hired me to work on their website, and those who donated to my camera fund. I’m tempted to…

    I recieved a call from Piper’s social worker today. Barring any unforeseen kinks, Piper will be moving to New Jersey next Wednesday the 15th of April. I have a lot of mixed emotions about this transition. On one hand, we are really going to miss all of the people who we have come to know…

    Is anyone else completely fascinated by the fact that in these modern times, piracy on the high seas can still exist, and even be a profitable endeavor? I am totally amazed by it. This week a Maersk freighter carrying aid to a Kenyan port, was taken hostage off the coast of Somalia. According to the…

    Today marks the 15th anniversary of the death of a legend. I’m not really sure how I could have made that first line any more cliche, but it’s true. I can’t believe it has been that long. I remember when I was a lot younger, my mom once told me that everyone in her generation…
