I’m famous
Ok, famous might be a bit of an exaggeration. But I’m on national (err, cable) TV. Well, the back of my head is, at least. For maybe five seconds.
See me? I promise, that’s really me! This is from CMT Insider’s coverage of the Miranda Lambert fan club party.
If you want my autograph, email me, and [...]
CMA Fest 2008
I dreamed of going to Nashville, we went, and now we’re back. We spent a week in Nashville going to CMA Fest, hanging out with some very cool people and seeing the Tennessee sights.
We started the trip out with a visit to the Grand Ole Opry. We didn’t even go to the hotel first — [...]
The sun exists in winter?
A few weeks ago, we took a short trip to Arizona to celebrate our third anniversary and see some slightly better weather. When you live in Seattle, it’s easy to forget that the sun actually does still exist in winter — it seems like we go months without seeing it.
The trip was great. We stayed [...]
I dreamed of going to Nashville
Awwww yeah! We’ve got our tickets and hotel reservation (tricky!) — we’re going to Nashville next summer for the CMA Music Festival! Neither of us have been to Nashville, so we’re both really excited.
Do any of you have any CMA Fest tips, or things we should see while we’re in Nashville?
Hello? Is this thing on???
Try as I might to come up with a reasonable excuse for failing to write for so long, I just can’t do it. There is no excuse. It just seems that the longer I wait, the harder it gets (that’s what she said). But I finally forced myself to do it; I hope you can [...]
Back home
I got back yesterday from two weeks of orientation and training at the Googleplex in Mountain View. I’m a full official Googler (and a Noogler) now.
I had a blast in Mountain View, and I got to visit some great friends while I was down there. But two weeks is a long time to be away [...]
PF, LS & CSz in LA. Go us!
As many of you already know, Becky and I went to Los Angeles last weekend. The Office session at Paley Fest is what brought the trip about, but hanging out with our friends was really the highlight of the weekend. It was so great to meet so many great folks we’d never met before, and [...]
Two years
Yesterday was our two year wedding anniversary. It doesn’t seem like two years ago that we were walking down the aisle, but the calendar doesn’t lie. To celebrate, we went to Alderbrook Resort on the Hood Canal. It was our first time there, and it’s a really beautiful place.
Back into the deluge
We made it back from Florida, and we’re mostly happy to be home. We had a great time, but we were pretty exhausted by the end of the trip. However, the one thing we weren’t ready to be back to is the weather. Seattle is just how we left it — grey, rainy and chilly. [...]
Hello from the Sunshine State!
I made it. I survived three extremely long days at Walt Disney World – we were in the parks from open until close Saturday, Sunday and today. Phew! It was an absolute blast, but my feet are screaming for relief. My shoes may not have been the best choice, but I don’t know if there [...]
