And then…

Drunken shopping. Always a bad idea. But I had to walk south on the Magnificent Mile. Oh look! The place where Cub Scout and Brownie are registered. I printed out the registry. Crate and Barrel use a horrible semi-touch-screen Windows system. I [redacted ranting]. I said, “[redacted swearing] “, and went to the register and [...]

An expensive day (so far)

I had only one goal today: find a dress for tomorrow’s wedding. I failed at finding a dress. Instead, I bought three jackets, three camisoles, two pairs of jeans, two pairs of shoes, and a turtleneck in a pear tree. Luckily, I brought a dress with me. I think I can wear one of the [...]

The wait

The wait begins. I’ve found myself some Irish cheese and merlot. Living in the Bay Area means I have access to all this great food all the time, so I just found something in the UK that I could eat while waiting. I figured I need the calcium. Speaking of my fracture, as I was [...]

Staycation!

Physics Goddess came to visit. (See all iPhone Photos and Nikon Photos on My Gallery.) For two days I dragged her to all kinds of places. It started with Quiz Night. Then we got up early in the morning and drove to Monterey. Lunch at the Cannery Row Brewing Co. A few hours at the [...]

I am obsessed with airports

If you have ever watched “Up in the Air,” I am the George Clooney character. For most people, airport terminals are a necessary evil to the process of transporting themselves from Point A to Point B. For me, airport terminals feel like home. I love the hustle and bustle. I love the emotions that hang [...]

Missed quiz night question

For the past few years, on the 3rd of June, which just happens to be today, iDad emails us all and asks if we remember what today is. We never do. Then, in pure contempt for his children’s lack of cultural education, he sends us a link, or the lyrics, or an iTunes gift. And [...]
