Gratefulness
Like most of the US today, I find myself a bit introspective and paying attention to the things in my life for which I am Thankful. Somewhat surprisingly to me, being an introvert (albeit a cheerful and social one), those things are nearly universally People ( Read more... ) -
Filled with awesome
The world is full of liars and fools. But still not devoid of awesomeness (and people of quality seem to be on the rise lately, though it could be my own Confirmation Bias ) To wit, via wilw:
Tis a Silly Place (directly, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luVjkTEIoJc) In short, ST:TOS edited to the Monty Python "Camelot" song. Two great tastes that ( Read more... ) -

Block delivered today, basement walls should start and be (mostly) complete tomorrow, and framing starts next Monday or Tuesday. I'm posting photos on ( Read more... ) -

Vacation and Portable Electrionics
Well, we are on vacation in Hilton Head (or is that "on", since it's an island?) No, really, we can't afford that on our own -- It's with all of Kara's family (who are a great bunch). There will be numerous pictures forthcoming -- it's beautiful here, and the house is amazing ( Read more... )
