Beer.
Great friends that we so rarely get to see.
But, whom after years and years we never loose a beat with - we just start right back up with the stories, the laughs and mutual-admiration.
Movie. With Wine/Beer.
Back to the Chow’s place to stay the night sans kid while they are away (THANK YOU!). Jeremy and Annika [...]

Happy-Cheesy-Smile-Christmas from the McKirdy/Blase/Keyzer/Kato/Vanderzee/Broadbears!
Yet another awesome smile from the kid on Christmas #2.
: )
Listening: Vampire Weekend (the new album - BUT, I just can’t stop thinking that this is the new “Your Mom’s Favorite Band” - which makes me not really want to listen anymore)

Just 3 words for you - Kylies.
MOVE. TO. AUSTIN.
And those aren’t my words, although, it’d be great to have you and Jeff in town so that we could take advantage of all of your childless-time for free babysitting. But, seriously, I look at all of the photos of you and H and really worry about [...]

We head back to Austin tomorrow. Excited to be getting home. Sad that we didn’t get enough time with friends and family. And scared that Harrison will be forever scarred from being taken 2,000 miles away from his most favorite person in the whole wide world.
Listening: Dead Man’s Bones

A couple Fridays ago it was my birthday. All I ever really want for my birthday is a nice dinner - a good bottle of wine, some kind of well-prepared fish or meat served with a delicious vegetable.
This year I got chicken-fried-bacon.
And sausage on a stick.
And beer. And a paper hat.
A ride on the Ferris [...]

WAIT! STOP!
Grandpa!
WHAT. IS. THAT… ???
A gondola!? Please, no no…
Don’t you mean… FLYING CAR!?
That’s a flying car!! A flying car… imagine that.
A CAR. THAT FLIES!
whoa.
Seriously. Do you see?
Why the hell are you all being so calm about this!? I don’t think your atrophied adult brains can grasp the significance.
That’s a C A R up in the [...]

Was it the braised pork shoulder and fish stew or the fact that we’ve known each other for so long that it made the meal so enjoyable? A bit of both, perhaps.
We met the Chow’s at my new favorite-restaurant-in-the-world for dinner during our brief San Francisco Summer ‘09 Adventure.
And yes, I am guilty of handing [...]

We have so many photos and videos from this summer that I never even uploaded, so, I’m going to try to add a few each day. Here’s a good one:
It should be noted that Marc had been giving these rides over and over and over (notice the “more, more, more” at beginning and end), hence [...]

It was H’s first day back at “school” (Finn’s house with the nanny) after our extended home-away-from-home-trip. He was apprehensive and sensitive and sweet compared to Finn’s confident toughness. Things were different just a year ago when Elizabeth started and Finn (Mr. Perfect) was a cute and cuddly little muffin and H was an act-before-thinking, [...]
