Last week, I read an article on Unplggd about a guy who took,  photos of the insides of people’s fridges.  I’ve always figured that the contents of our fridge are fairly unique (lots of pre-staged food, for example) so I thought I’d take a quick snap of our fridge and commit it to the Internet for [...]

As anyone following this site (or talking to me in real life) lately knows, we’re just finishing up a reflooring project, which has expanded to what I’ve jokingly referred to as House 2.0. It started with the floor, and just kept going… Pantry painting, a work counter in the pantry, toilet repair, Furniture rearranging in [...]

Today is recognized by some as “Pi Approximation Day“, so called for the European representation of the date (22/7) which evaluates to 3.142… People in the know recognize Pi Day on March 14th, but any opportunity to celebrate math is worth it in my book.

Becky herself will be there for the duration of the event, so get out there, say [...]

Against better judgement this week, Drew and I went to a “bar hour” event for our 10th-ish high-school reunion.  The ironic part is that neither of us actually graduated with these people, for a variety of circumstances. Anyhow, “better judgement” wasn’t so great in this case, as it turned out to be a really good time, overall. [...]
