  1. We’re Back! December 30, 2006

    We’re loopy as all get-outs, due to a delayed connecting flight pushing our arrival back in Seattle from 5:00am to 6:30am and sending both of us far into the realms of sleep deprivation, plus having to battle the head cold that I picked up midway through the week…but we’re back.

  2. Merry Xmas, We’re Off to Alaska December 25, 2006

    And now, Prairie and I are waking up and taking care of the last few details before we head out to the airport to fly up to Anchorage for the next few days to visit my folks. Enjoy your Christmas (or Hannukkah, or Yule, or whatever) season!

    Best discovery of the past couple weeks: the Weekly World News (sorry, Seattle Weekly and Stranger, but this is my favorite weekly newspaper) has an RSS feed.

  5. Bachelor Days December 20, 2006

    Prairie’s off on a train down to visit her family down in Vancouver (south), so I’m on my own for a couple of days.

  7. Post-Storm Report December 15, 2006

    All in all, nothing major to report, as far as we’re concerned. Elsewhere in Seattle, though, it’s far different. Flooding, mudslides, downed trees, three people dead (one a woman who drowned in her basement apartment) and one million people without power.

  8. Stormpocalypse ‘06 December 14, 2006

    Looks like the strongest storm in 13 years is going to be hitting Seattle tonight. Yesterday hit hard enough to knock out power at our apartment for a few hours in the morning, with other outages reported across town. Tonight, though, is predicted to make yesterday look positively balmy.

  9. Happy Holidays from Me, Prairie…and Flickr December 13, 2006

    A bit of silliness on Flickr these days: if you add a note that says simply ‘ho ho ho hat’ to a photo, Flickr will add a Santa hat to the photo where the note is placed.

  10. Other Life Updates December 13, 2006

    It was pointed out to me by Casey when I ran into him, Jen, and their daughter on the bus yesterday as I was heading home from school that, with the dearth of posts here lately, I’ve been letting down those (poor, sad) souls who depend on my rambling here to live vicariously through me. Sorry ‘bout that!
