Flash (KABOOM, rumble, rumble)

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

I’m a very heavy sleeper.
It takes a great deal for me to wake up normally. Kelly has been known to come nudge me, more than once, to crawl my butt out of bed. I just sleep heavy.
So imagine my surprise when I suddenly wake up at 3am to some house-shaking thunder. And the rain. Egad [...]

Leaving beautiful Bruges

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Well, we’ve spent the past couple days in Bruges, and it’s a wonderful city. It’s small enough to walk the entire center (only about a mile wide, and about 2 miles long), but packed with history. We took a canal boat ride, which while a touristy thing to do, was a lot of fun. We [...]

An update-y thingy

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

Since my last post of randomness, a few things have happened… most importantly, Kelly had her graduation for her MBA last weekend. The ceremony wasn’t too long, a little over an hour, however due to the order of events, and our shared last name, Kelly was nearly the last person to get presented with her [...]

Vista House & Edgefield

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

After getting back from the mountain yesterday safe and sound, getting home by 7, and being really tired and going to bed around 9:30pm (my sick still having some sway over me), Kelly and I woke up just before 8am this morning. We both sat around a bit, I cleaned my office a bit, played [...]

More sick, and an eclipse

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Still got the flu, worked from home again today. I’m really done with this crap. I can tell I’m on the mend enough that instead of simply feeling miserable, I’m getting very grumpy. Probably from being couped up for so long. This evening there was a lunar eclipse. I went out and snapped a [...]

Sick of the sick

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Still sick with flu. I hate this. Yesterday I came home early from work which turned out to be a really good thing, as around 4pm my fever & sweats returned. Since then, it’s been another round of aches, stuffy head, and more fever (with some scratchy, watery eyes thrown in to make my misery [...]

Sicky: update

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

Walked with Kelly to the hardware store (about a 2 mile round trip) since it was such a nice day, stopping by M & B’s on the way back. After getting home we got to trimming and pruning. Nearly all the roses are cut back, as well as a bunch of other plants. There are [...]

You see it?

Friday, February 15th, 2008

So a few weeks ago when the news of Heath Leger’s death hit the interwebs, and the news of whatever oddness between he, the maid, and Mary-Kate Olsen surfaced, ABC News.com posted a photo of Heath and MK side by side. I saw the photo and immediately thought of how creepy MK looked, and how [...]

A Good Saturday

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

Last night Kelly and I had a night in. She made turkey lasagna and garlic bread, and we watched Sunshine, which I liked quite a bit.
Kelly had class today, so I slept in a bit, waking up at around 8:30am (yup, that’s sleeping in for me now, urgh). After spending a little bit of time [...]

Fancy work dinner thing

Monday, January 28th, 2008

After work today the development team at SuperSweetCo were taken out to this fancy tapas restaurant Toro Bravo (menu here) for dinner & drinks to celebrate both the hard work by the team over the past few weeks, as well as to spend time with everybody from the team who now span several countries and [...]
