This is a crazy week. We’re back in full swing (I feel like I keep starting every email with that tagline: full swing. How lame?) But it’s true, full speed ahead. Here are some exciting things happening this week. 1. Tonight, my Dad is getting officially sworn in as the new City of Mukilteo Fire [...]
It’s definetly felt like Fall around here this weekend. Yesterday, we went to Stoney Ridge Farm to pick out pumpkins, then spent the afternoon carving and admiring our Jack-o-lanterns. Of course, the admiring was done from inside, with a cold glass of Elysian brewing’s Night Owl pumpkin ale. You’ll notice my special Obama pumpkin design. [...]
If you happened to miss last night’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention by Barack Obama, it was pretty inspiring. It is exciting to be able to witness this history in the making and to see such great hope in a nation, coming together, and standing up for what we believe in, not being [...]
As the summer is now in full swing, my reading list is also now finally moving into full motion. During the year I find it hard to sit down with a book for any extended period of time, let alone finish with any semblance of recollection of the main point, so this has been a [...]
Well folks, I'm starting to get pretty excited. It's 4 hours 'til midnight. Coldplay's new album, Viva La Vida Or Death and All His Friends, will be released tomorrow. I'm hoping iTunes will push the button for the east coast and I'll get to listen in about an hour, but I'm not getting my hopes [...]
I got my brand new kicks in the mail today. Say hello to 100% recycled foot goodness. Last week, I decided it was once again time to up and buy a new pair of shoes. I decided that since it seems like the world is collapsing around me, with rising gas prices, global warming, etc., [...]
So, we had a day off yesterday. Just closed the office and took a day for a break. It had been a long week, a long couple weeks really, so a day to breathe was very welcome. I scheduled a dental appointment in Shoreline and decided to take a long day in the big city [...]
I think I like lists. And so, to honor the end of my 24th year, here’s a list of things that happened in my life over the past year. Feel free to remind me if I leave anything out. Celebrated my 2 year wedding anniversary with Stacy Started my own business Made unsuccessful offers on [...]
At least according to Starbucks. I’ve heard that they made the big Christmas switch-over last night. I’m trying to hold off stopping by, but it’s inevitable that I’ll see it sooner or later. My small group meets there Friday mornings, so I’m in for it tomorrow. The question is, what if I want a Pumpkin [...]
What last week of October would be complete without pumpkin carving? And since I really miss LOST…
