Just in time (apparently)

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

Today we had some tech (and apparently sales… keep reading) folks come out from Comcast to fix some cable troubles. Our ancient, old-school analog cable has been having troubles with some channels. It’s not a new problem, it just took Kelly and I a long time to finally call Comcast about it. Channels 2 through [...]

Day ’round the house

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

Today I went no further than a half-mile from my house, and it was nice. After last weekend’s running around it was good to just anchor down a bit.
Since Kelly had class all day, I had intended to sleep in late, but by 9am I got up and decided to have a full day. I [...]

Dinner for Miranda

Friday, June 15th, 2007

Tonight I went to dinner for Miranda’s birthday at what was once Salvador Molly’s on Belmont, and is now ‘Calypso: Restaurant & Lounge’. I was a bit bummed to learn that Salvadore Molly’s was no more (only after getting home and searching the internets did I learn that the original location in Hillsdale is still [...]

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

Friday: The BBQ at Snooks place was fun, though I was feeling a [...]

My new toy, and house guests arrive

Thursday, June 7th, 2007

During my lunch break at work today I bought what I’d been (not so secretly) craving for months… I bought one of the new MacBook Pro’s. I’ve been coveting them for a while now, however I’ve known for a while now that Apple was about to release a new model, so I waited. And waited. [...]

The Fountain, the Walking, & the Garage

Monday, June 4th, 2007

To follow up from Saturday, I spent most of yesterday playing with my photo gallery software, in an attempt to better link it with the blog. Kelly and I also watched The Fountain, which Snooks had recently metioned. It was indeed a beautiful film, and one that left me pondering afterwards (even now), and led [...]

Weekend Report: Backyard edition

Saturday, June 2nd, 2007

Been a very busy week. So let me start off with…
Monday (Memorial Day): as Kelly wrote, my friend Jenn threw a big BBQ / Housewarming. I was there far too late and had far too much beer (from a keg of IPA from Pelican Brewery), but it was a blast. Though I paid for it [...]
