The changing parameters of the three work projects I’m currently on are getting to be very frustrating. Not so much that I’ll take it home with me, but what really nettles me is that my title is still lowly and insignificant. Everyone thinks I’m a goddamn secretary. Eighty percent of my contacts can’t bother to [...]
Last night IP and I made a trip to Vienna to see Paul and Storm play at Jammin’ Java. I had spotted the tickets a few months ago and we both agreed that it would be a lark (even if trekking all the way to Vienna makes us wish that there were more venues in [...]
IP and I have secured a venue and date for our wedding next year. Before August 2009 is over, my new initials will be one letter away from the translation of a “dirty” word that rhymed with my nickname in Mexico. Let’s just put it this way: the rhyme placed my purity and [...]
A very happy 19th birthday to Mathgeek — or, as he is known in certain circles, “The” Mathgeek. We’ve come a long way from that chilly Mexican night in which the kiddo was born; we’ve come a long way from the newborn baby with the impossibly long fingers, the red face, the nearly bald head. [...]
I’m back from Michigan, having seen the wedding venue options for the grand matrimonial event for WordNerd and IP! I’d say you’re cordially invited, Internets, but our budget’s already a bit stretched. Perhaps I can pipe you in via video teleconference?
Kidding aside, the visit was fruitful in that a) we’re on the verge of deciding [...]

The day was bearable thanks to great input from my mom and sister [...]

This is not a political blog, as expressed in the founding post. But I am so sick of hearing McCain and Palin’s lies. I am so tired of the past eight years, and the promised continuation of these disastrous times (no matter if McCain’s trying to co-opt Obama’s theme of change — the [...]
My running plan for the fall has changed a bit. I have been forced to cancel my New York City Marathon entry; I’m instead focusing on the much more reasonable goal (given my fitness level at the moment) of a 10K. Targeted is the Rockville 10K, held on the same day as the [...]
