What a fabulous afternoon! We went to the museum and I headed straight for the Chihuly exhibit. It was a decent size exhibit, all stuff from the museum's own collection, but most of which I hadn't seen on display before. He really is great with color and form. There were some gorgeous pieces, many...
The challenges of the past few weeks are now history. Mia has a reservation for boarding, we're ready for our trip to Ireland, work is caught up for the first time since I took that job years ago, our sewer and water main will be replaced while we're away, and my sister and I managed to actually...
Wow, its been a few days, huh? I suppose that's just fine and dandy as I never promised I would write daily, at least I didn't promise it to you guys. I only promised myself that I would try to write more often if for nothing else than to try to keep my sanity. So here I am. Hi! *waving* At times,...
It was almost 1PM when I logged out from the office. Instead of going straight home, I went to SM to buy a bottle of perfume. I would say it was a great buy. Victoria Beckham 70ml priced at Php3800. But since there was a 3-day sale, I got if for only Php3200 plus a lotion, and a shower gel and a big...
I just bought a round trip, non-stop flight from Paris to New York for 334€, or less than $498. That is an unbelievably good deal. In September I flew through Reykjavik, on a really nice flight with Iceland Air, and thought that $515 was fantastic, but this is ten times better since I don't have...

Statue of a dragon guarding one of the beautiful bridges in downtown Ljubljana, Slovenia. June 2008.
Saw these at the Barber Motorsports Museum near Birmingham, Alabama recently Mach I I cannot seem to get these to load in order but you get the idea - two brothers I think - the garage and an evolving vision. I was much more interested in these world travelers. The maps are on their saddlebags. Any...
I need some gum and a neck rub. My jaw is so tired and sore, my neck and shoulders so knotted, ...for days now. I bailed on the funeral today. I'm not proud of it, but I am glad I didn't go. I got up early and got my shower and workout out of the way so I could go. I ate a high fiber cereal and some...
From now until the end of 2009 I have only 61 classroom hours to teach. On top of that I have all of my private lessons and tutoring, but so many of my classes are away on stages from here on that I never once work the full 12 classroom hours a week. It makes coming back from a great vacation a bit...
I'm so not a multitasker. I know being able to multi-task is a badge of pride these days, but you know what? Fuck that! I can give one thing my full attention, thoroughly accomplish a task with integrity and confidence, and then move on to the next. Multitaskers are always doing just enough to get...
In a week we are heading to Louisville Ky for a Acts 29 bootcamp! Never in a million years would I have ever thought I would be like yea we are going to Louisville Kentucky. It will be three days of awesome teaching, three days without kids, three days of not waking up at 6:00 to get the kids ready...
From my trip to the New England area, this is my favorite picture that I took. My photography skills aren't all that great, but I really love this picture for some reason.
What's the worst vacation you've ever taken? Growing up, we took a vacation every Labor Day weekend to the Black Hills in South Dakota. On one of those trips, I got the stomach flu plus an asthma episode. My friend, Michelle, came with who also has asthma and she ended up with the same thing. We...

Very very early tomorrow morning I am hopping on a plane to Krakow. I will spend four days/three nights there, and then take the night train to Budapest. I'll have six days in Hungary, that I'll split between Budapest, Eger, and maybe Sopron. This is my first long trip since last February, when I...

On one of our other days in Northern New Mexico, we left Santa Fe with our friends and traveled about an hour to Bandelier National Monument, which is just outside of the town of Los Alamos. Bandelier sits in the Frijoles Canyon and is the site of cliff dwellings from ancestral pueblo peoples that...
Letzte Woche waren wir an der nur eine Stunde entfernten Pazifikküste im Urlaub. Zusammen mit unseren Freunden Michelle, Peter und deren Sohn Colin hatten wir in Santa Cruz ein nettes Strandhaus gemietet. Es war eine sehr schöne und erholsame Zeit mit einem abwechslungsreichen Programm: Einfach...
One of the things that I think I like most about New Mexico is that for the most part, no one lives there (45th among US states in population density). Coming from Southern California and having been born and raised in New Jersey (#1 in pop density), crowded spaces are pretty well known to me. But...
