I don't think I'll be home much this January.. Next week alone I'll be gone 5 nights, but in different places. Neither the missus nor the weiners will be happy about this.
Finally, I get to take the rest of the year off...Now for a quick trip to the Bay Area.
It's been a week and I'm still sick....

Sorry to hear that, sport...take lots of whiskey...err, I mean water.

* Apple-pecan stuffing
* Sweet potato puree
* Roast garlic mashed potatoes
* Greenbeans
* Port-cranberry sauce
Wine:

* NV Cameron Pinot Noir
I'm still cleaning up.

Saw Laibach last night and it was amazing. It was an early show, but it worked out great since I got home at a civilized hour. Normally this wouldn't be a requirement, but my mother is in town and my wife volunteered to entertain her for the evening.
Nobody died, yet.

Not a good day for this country. 
Laibach is coming to Seattle!

Laibach is the shit. They're playing here in Philly as well. Their 'Let it Be' Beatles cover album is the bomb. Plus, 'Life is Life'. Gots to love Eastern Europeans!
More travel for work this week, next week, and the following week. Looks like I'll make that next level of the mileage plan.

thank you.. .the first pair of glasses are the new ones. Promotion without compensation kinda sucks.

Indignation without represenation is slightly non-secular.
Just got back from a long weekend in Newport, OR...nice place, and we got to take the dogs with us.

Nice...good time had by all (including the pooches). Thought you were dead or something. Ciao...
