Robot foosball
I really wanted to get a foosball table this year, but we just didn’t have space in the apartment. My family has a table at home (I got my first black eye from it when I got too close to it and my Uncle Peter rocketed his goalie backwards). My brother is […]
Happy Memorial Day
OK, comments like the ones in the previous entry are what keep me blogging. 
Keep it up, folks! Maybe I’ll post three times a week!
I’m typing this now waiting for Kuwie and Rick to get back from Sam’s Wine with stuff for today’s barbeque. Sheila and I went to get groceries […]
This’ll make me blog more
I hate how my posting once a week strategy makes the blog look like crap since it just pulls the stuff from the current week and then the right hand side goes all King Kon over the bottom of the page. Sure I could just go ahead and change the template, but that would […]
The New What?
Slate Review: The New Pornographers - Electric Version
I love this band. I love how this band can turn reviewers into drooling fanboys and girls. They’re coming to the Metro July 6th, so heck no I’m not going anywhere that weekend.
My brother got me their first album, Mass Romantic, for Christmas, and my mom […]
Let me tell you a story for an hour.
So, Tuesday night, I went to Uncommon Ground for storytelling. I hadn’t been in a while due to work, an improv show, and general stress. That’s about the last couple Tuesdays. Anyway, El and I took her mom there to see it and I figured since I’d be there, I might as […]
Getting a cold CAN be fun.
Plush microbes
Found this on Boing Boing. Very cute.
The Weekend Recap
So last week at Otto’s recital, I promised Lia that I’d go see XMen 2 with her this weekend. But I couldn’t wait, so El and I went to see it on Sunday for El’s birthday (big 21!). Anyhoo, Friday, Lia called me while I was at work and said, “So, want to […]
Trivia with Los Mejores
So Hunter called me up last night out of the blue (I had warning though: my brother called me and said, “Hunter wants your cell phone number, is that OK?”) So the call was not unexpected but the question was.
“Do you like trivia?”
As we just got a Trivial Pursuit set from my sister for […]
Otto’s Recital
Saturday was Otto’s composition recital. I was appointed videographer, so I was on hand to document the crazy circus that was Circo Anegando (”The Drowning Circus”).
I got there during the dress rehearsal. There was a group of singers and instrumentalists rehearsing a selection from his opera. I started filming everything, especially Otto’s […]
iPod!
On Friday, Kuwie, El and I headed out to the Apple Store in Woodfield to snag new iPods (well, Kuwie and I. El was the most patient girlfriend ever.) The store wasn’t completely packed, but there was a DJ spinning on one side using two iPods instead of turntables. We took a […]
