Moved back to the Reserve

April 13th, 2010

Well, we moved. :)

Without my wife, I don’t know how we would have done it.

But we’re back at Dexter Lake again. We painted. We moved (with the help our our friends). And we’re unpacking now.

I could not have done it without my wife ;)

Thanks, baby.

After we get unpacked, I’ll blog more :)

Hot Springs is cold in the winter

December 31st, 2009

I seem to have entirely skipped blogging about our trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas last year!

In this shot, we’re on a tower 66 meters (216 feet) tall, and the wind (coupled with the December temperatures) chilled us to the bone. (I love their official website, design circa 1997.)

You can see our V-shaped hotel, The Arlington, in the background, and its outdoor pool nestled on the mountainside (click to see an obstructed view)

I’ll write more about that 2008 trip next time :)

Three years ago today

December 30th, 2009

Three years ago today, I met my gorgeous wife at a skating rink.

So in line with that activity, I’m taking her to Incredible Pizza later in the week.

Yay, fun!

Sometimes vitamin C’s not enough

December 21st, 2009

It seems like I only blog now if I want to (1) make reminder notes for myself, or, if life slows down enough for me, to (2) take some time to write.

Well, I have no reminder notes in this post (note to self: no reminder notes).

I’m sick. In bed. Trying to rest. But I’ve got too much I want to do!

As soon as I started feeling bad, I increased my daily vitamin C dose, but to no avail.

So now my organization, cleaning, and exercise projects are on hold, and my blog gets an update.

Since I’m sick, I watched X-Men: The Last Stand. It was just as bad as it was in theaters. But I hear that the series is getting a movie-reboot, like Batman Begins, Superman Returns, James Bond, or The Incredible Hulk (and hopefully Dare-Devil, Elektra, and the Fantastic Four).

(Note to self: don’t put a note here to check on that later.)

Time to rest again.

Reading and stuff

September 12th, 2009

I’m currently reading several books, and not exercising enough. Having a blast out here IRL, though; went to the Delta Fair; realized I have about 14 video games I haven’t finished and a bunch of books; and “Diva” made her own Zimmer Twin movie from qubo.

Lots of other things, but I thought I’d post a quick blog entry :)

Currently Reading: Rich Dad, Poor Dad (okay, I finished this one), Cashflow Quadrant: Rich Dad’s Guide to Financial Freedom, Software Engineering 6th ed. (studying this one), Make Room for Danny, and Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood.
Currently Playing: Ico (again, got it back from my brother).
