  1. Upheaval August 31, 2007

    The move is in progress — tons of boxes filled with crap floating from one apartment to the other, and all sorts of unfun disarray and nastiness. Ugh. Moving’s stressful enough when it’s anticipated and planned, but having to suddenly dive full-force into it with no advance notice is horrendous.

  2. Congratulations, Peter and Hope! August 27, 2007

    I’ve still got a ways to go on the rest of the vacation pictures, but I finished the set for Peter and Hope’s wedding this morning.

  3. Boy and Turtle (Black Sand Beach) August 21, 2007

    It’ll be a bit before I get my Hawaii shots posted. In the meantime, Prairie’s posted all of her photos from Hawaii, and has put up a few posts about the trip on her weblog!

  4. Welcome Home…Now Start Packing August 20, 2007

    We’re home. Generally speaking, this is a good thing: the wedding was wonderful, the experience at the resort was good, the camping was incredible, and even traveling home was surprisingly pleasant. The actual arrival home has been one of the most traumatic we’ve yet experienced, however.

  5. Aloha! August 15, 2007

    Right now, I’m sitting in our room on the sixth floor of the Lagoon Tower, looking out over Waiulua Bay. Stepping out onto the deck, I can look nearly directly down into a pool where people are swimming with dolphins. Not long ago, I was snorkeling along through the resort’s lagoon, sidling on up to pat a sea turtle’s shell as it nosed through the spray of a waterfall.

  6. More Fun with Flossie August 14, 2007

    Flossie continues to head for the Big Island, which is on hurricane watch, tropical storm warning, and flash flood watch, has closed its public schools, and is officially under a state of emergency. Oh, and there was an earthquake this morning, too.

  7. Dance Off 2007 August 13, 2007

    About a week and a half ago, six teams of people with dance in their souls — if not their soles — gathered together for a battle royale at Dance Off 2007. Truly, such fleetfooted feats (feets?) shall never grace a stage again. Until next year, of course. ;)

  8. Flossie August 10, 2007

    Would everyone on Hawaii please do us a favor? Go outside, face south, and blow as hard as you can. See, Prairie and I have tickets to fly out of Seattle on Tuesday to go to Hawaii. Unfortunately, Hurricane Flossie apparently also has plans to be Hawaii on Tuesday.

  10. Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein August 8, 2007

    A small town sits at the base of a craggy mountain. on which a narrow, craggy road winds its way up to the forbidding castle at the top, eerily illuminated by a full moon. The house lights go down, and the title card appears over the scene: Young Frankenstein! Overall: an excellent show, and we got to see it first (nyeah-nyeah)!

  11. I’m going to avoid the viaduct… August 6, 2007

    The central portion of the Alaskan Way Viaduct was ranked on the same scale. Its score: Nine percent. And if that doesn’t make you want to stay away from the viaduct until they tear the damn thing down, perhaps knowing that the National Bridge Inventory considers it “basically intolerable” will.

  12. Seattle Outtakes Pipe August 1, 2007

    In theory, if I’ve done this correctly, this pipe should be a Seattle Outtakes RSS feed.

  13. True Blood August 1, 2007

    Anna Paquin, vampires, and Utilikilts in the same show? Sounds to me like it’ll at least be worth checking out an episode or three.
