So, it’s my birthday today, and not only do I have to work all day (ah, the joys of customer service during the holiday season!), but I have an interview for a possible promotion (that I don’t think I’ll get but hey, you never know) so I can’t even be a slacker and pretend to work all day while instead fiddling with the awesome new toys I’m hoping to get at my...

As you may know, a little over a year ago we lost our furry friend Ruffles to a mysterious illness. He left a grumpy, schnauzer shaped hole in our hearts, and Luke without a buddy. We’ve been…

I know. I know. I said I would keep writing after the honeymoon….and then there was almost six months of nothing. I am the WORST! You see, it’s hard to write about what’s going on when there’s…

Insomnia sucks.
That is all.
Want an iPhone 4S tomorrow? You can reserve them for pickup at the Apple Retail Store beginning at 9pm tonight.
Siri, find my iPhone! Or the UPS guy.
I may be working on a Saturday… - But that doesn’t mean that I’m gonna change out of my pajamas! http://t.co/oUjdXy40

Hey @centurylink So glad I pay for the highest tier! http://t.co/Mc5XVbL8
I think since I’ve been on the clock since 6am, perhaps it’s time to change from my pajamas into something…oh, with pants, maybe? But only because there are people coming over. Otherwise it would be pajama city all day around here!
Man, I LOVE working from home!!! (Even if it does have to happen on the weekends.)
It's too early for this...
First, I’m back! It’s been a crazy few months. You know, I got married, packed up all my shit and moved it into my parent’s garage and went on a two month long honeymoon adventure around the country (you probably know some of that since I had my blog post here too.) Anyway, now I live in Phoenix, and I have a job and everything (but the hubby is still unemployed :( which is a...

For me, it’s just he was the most accessibly normal extraordinary person. Steve Jobs made me feel like anything was possible, and to know that people’s lives can be effected by your imagination is perhaps the most valuable lesson.

It’s been posted and it’ll be posted a million times more, but once in a while someone comes along, changes everything, and tells us how he did it. We should listen.

Thanks for everything, Steve.

What? Amy Winehouse died? That’s just depressing!
On the road again! →
Well, it’s been a pretty uneventful week in Arizona. We’ve been spending a lot of quality time with our computers – beefing up our resumes, writing kick ass cover letters, and applying for jobs….

indefensible:
I started high school in 1985. The school was equipped with Apple ][ computers, and there were a couple of Macs as well. My parents felt that they should buy me a computer so that I could keep up with everyone at school.
They didn’t buy me an Apple.
My mother, who left school at 14, had…

We did it! We survived fifty three days in the car together. And yes, we still like each other. I know! Amazing.
The last day was a piece of cake, even if it did involve a long, boring drive…
A few spins of the roulette wheel! →
I like roulette. Oh sure, it’s got terrible odds, but it’s so unambiguous. I don’t feel like I need to know all the ins and outs in order to play, and it’s pretty easy to figure out if you’ve won….

If you’re ever lucky enough to stay with Doug and Deric at their awesome house in Oakland, you might get even luckier and have Deric cook breakfast for you. I don’t know what magical ingredients he…

Hey Seattle people! Remember that show I saw last weekend? The one that was so amazing I still can’t stop thinking about it? There are still tickets for it’s final weekend! Go see it!! Sick, written and performed by Elizabeth Kenny. Get your tickets here by clicking that there link! You won’t regret it (well, unless you miss it!)
For those of you who haven’t heard about...
So much for the scenic route! →
We had the best intentions of taking the 101 around the Olympic peninsula, stopping in Forks to make fun of the vampires, in Poulsbo to see Nick and Heidi, and just taking our time on our journey…
We finally made it to Seattle!
After our Lewiston dining experience on Thursday night, I was less than anxious to give the city another chance yesterday morning. So, instead of having breakfast there, we decided to drive to Walla Walla for a late breakfast. By far the coolest part about driving from Lewiston to Walla Walla is all the cute little towns you get to pass through on the way! Dayton and Waitsburg were our favorites....
Rain, rain, go away! →
For the record, I do love thunderstorms. Just not so much when I’m sleeping in a tent in one. The good news is that the tent does not leak! (Thanks again, Dave and Louise!!) The only water in here…
Setting up the tent in the pouring rain in a thunderstorm achievement unlocked! We rock!

My awesome sister-in-law just got engaged! Matt proposed to Jen in Turkey at sunset – how cool is that? We’re so excited, and my mom says that if she’s not invited to the wedding, she’s gonna crash…
