I have spent the last seven out of nine nights in a hotel. The first four nights were in New York. That was fun. These last three were spent in the middle of California for work. I decided to treat it as a little vacation. During every vacation I try to get out of my [...]

Kids at Heart
Just so you don’t think all I did in New York was eat and drink (although nothing wrong with that), here is a short clip of us in the subway station. They were doing construction so you could hear the jack-hammering. Like any grown adult, some of us decided to make machine gun motions.
The rest [...]
The thing about New York…
We knew our last day had to be big, so we started with more eating. After a mixup at Calle Ocho (Boo on Calle Ocho!), we ended up waiting in the cold for Good Enough to Eat.
Omelet with biscuits and strawberry butter.
Their waffles are good enough to eat but not that great. I’d get something [...]
Anything to do in the middle of California?
Remember a couple years ago when I wrote this post about work? It resulted in this awesome work. It looks like I couldn’t get someone else to fill in for me for the work. I get to go back tomorrow night, probably for three days instead of two this time. It’s been just over two [...]
Milking This Trip for Blog Content
I booked a flight for New York for Michelle and myself way back in June. When I originally booked it, it was just the two of us going to visit some friends for a long weekend trip, but it turned out that a lot of our friends had vacation time. They ended up coming out [...]
New York Preview
Although these two pictures have nothing to do with any underlying theme of our trip, this is just to keep you interested in a post about New York. Stay tuned for more misadventures of Michelle and me.
Virgin America runs Linux. I wasn’t hacking. It crashes when you try to play Doom.
It wasn’t that cold. Our [...]
Who wants to take a trip with me?
Someone was kind enough to send me a quaint little bed and breakfast place in Pennsylvania. We can learn how to juice beets and make tables. It’ll be so much fun.

2007: No Plausible Deniability for Early 20’s
With 2007 came the realization that I was no longer in my early 20’s. Gone were the years of wild partying.
I told you I got really into fish. It took me three months of having a 10 gallon tank to upgrade to 55 gallons. This is what it started as, but it’s quite different now.
Michelle [...]
I’m on a Boat!
Our last full day was spent with an ocean voyage on a catamaran.
I’m on a boat and, it’s going fast and, I’ve got a nautical themed Pashmina afghan!
The views were great, but some people were sick.
Michelle lost a shoe, and the boat actually backed up to get it.
With this one returned, the net shoe loss [...]
Beaches. Now THIS is Vacation
Our last few days in Costa Rica were spent near the beach. The water is warm and clear. It may seem strange for us to go to the beach since we live ten minutes away from it at home, but our beaches suck. We need Costa Rican style beaches.
Gorgeous water in front. Rainforest in back.
We found [...]
