Cheap entertainment


I don't know how someone could NOT be excited to clean out their garbage disposal, but apparently Jess is one of those people.  I think she was just acting like she wasn't excited.

The end is near


Sigh.  I'm actually going to miss having OC episodes to watch.

June 27, 2011

One step closer ...


I guess this is really happening.

Vermonster


A very happy and excited group, ready to tackle the Vermonster ...


20 scoops of ice cream, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, bananas, too much whipped cream, hot fudge, gummy bears and god-knows what else.  Wikipedia claims 14,000 calories and 500 grams of fat, but that seems like the low end.


Ugh.

Top Flr


A really fun dinner at Top Flr.  Mostly because we got to spend time with our favorite Atlanta people.

400 Madness!


I have no idea what was happening on 400, but we've got people driving the wrong way down the on-ramp, cars driving across the sidewalks to get on the road, etc.  I mean, even for Atlanta it was a bad driving.

Steve and Kate


Wedding invitation #3 for the year so far!

Just sad


I don't know if we were tired, lazy or just didn't care, but we ended up with the saddest dinner I can remember having.  No sauce, no salad, no bread, no wine.  Just ravioli and olive oil.  Beach bodies here we come!

Last call


Well, we went to dinner with the Ryan boys, but I had two margaritas and forgot to take a picture with all them before they left for the Dispatch concert.  So here is Jess leaving La Fonda.

Improving the classics


Trader Joe's pizza -- now featuring "Add Your Own Meatballs!"

Downpour


This was the result of the walk from my car to my front-door.  10 minutes later it was sunny.  It actually reminded me of Colorado.

Dining in Decatur


I don't think I've ever been to Taqueria del Sol when it isn't lined out the door.  But there's always seating once you get inside.  Amazing.

The calvary's coming


Adding a solid transfer to an already great incoming class -- team's going to have a whole new feel next year!

June 15, 2011

Trying to be good


I thought these might be healthier than the normal peanut-butter filled pretzels than Trader Joe's.  Turns out it's true, too, because you don't even want to eat these.

Summer School


Not sure how I hadn't learned about these before, but they're awesome!  Way to go, Canada!

Sad news


Hopefully the Big Man will hang in there.

Post-Race Rewards


Jess ran her first 5k this morning!  She summed up the thoughts of all first-time 5k runners when she exclaimed,  "where the F is the 2-mile?!"  But it was all worth it when we stopped at Sublime Doughnuts to celebrate.

Identity Theft


In case you're confused, I'm the one on the right.  Thanks to Mom and Dad for the team effort of finding the sunglasses.

June 9, 2011

New nephew (shhh)


Meet Walter -- all 10+ pounds of him!  If everything goes well, I get to be the cool uncle again! 

June 8, 2011

Raindrops keep fallin'


A brief moment of frustration at more dripping water from my ceiling.  But I think now that it's just condensation from people running their air conditioners non-stop.  At least that's what I'm telling myself.

June 7, 2011

The Canon


Enough said.

June 6, 2011

Landing time


Straight from the airport to bed.  If only all Mondays could involve this much napping.

June 5, 2011

Red Eye


I hate getting on a plane when you realize it's already tomorrow where you're headed.  Or at least when that place is Houston.

June 4, 2011

Hiking in OR


Between the bars and the casino we headed to the coast for a short hike w/ some great views and a pretty great radio rescue operation, as well.


June 3, 2011

Fuel Stop


Before the night's festivities, we had a biscuit with cheese, bacon, fried chicken, a fried egg and sausage gravy.  Someone needs to bring this to Atlanta.

June 2, 2011

Welcome to Portland


Whether it's Oregon or Colorado or presumably other places out west -- the air just feels better, and I feel more relaxed as soon as I get there.

June 1, 2011

Popcorn movie


Planning my entertainment for the flight tomorrow.  (Side note, turns out that I loaded this onto my computer in the wrong format and was therefore unable to watch it on my iPod.  But it was still a good plan.)
