2 months in a few bullet points
Just realized that with 2 months of blog downtime a few happenings kinda went under the radar for our league(s) of devoted readers. So here’s what happened from 12/7/09 through today in a very brief bullet-pointed recap.
NOTE: I’m only posting this because Tracy has the remote in her hand while watching The Holiday on TBS, and I’m bored as a result. Part (OK…all) of my Valentines Day gift to her.
- Microsoft missed my Xbox response deadline, so I traded everything in and paid about $50 for a new PS3. WIN!
- Tracy’s office had their annual holiday party and boys were not allowed for the first time. Yet I still ended up driving 50% of the company home that night. FAIL!
- Spent Xmas in Susanville. Managed to see zero friends while in town. WIN! & FAIL!
- Returned home with $800 of cheap Nevada-issued alcohol to be distributed amongst the people. WIN!
- Spent New Years (a.k.a. Christmas #2) in Astoria with the other set of parents. WIN!
- Watched 1st half of the Rose Bowl and quickly figured out the Ducks would lose it (and how!). FAIL!
- Fell in love with Big-Ass Sandwiches, a new downtown PDX food cart, and became good pals with the owners. WIN!
- Celebrated our 1-year anniversary of Danzig’s adoption by spoiling him no more than we already do. WIN!
- Traveled to Seattle for a long-overdue visit with friends as well as a very fun baby shower that involved poker and Trapped In The Closet.
- Took Tracy’s Mom to a birthday dinner one week early at Mother’s Bistro. WIN!
- Got the blog back up-and-running. WIN!
- Finished this list of bullet points. WIN!
Up on the horizon, trade show travel for both of us (Andrew to Palm Springs, Tracy to San Francisco), a “forced-vacation” trip to Susanville for Andrew & Danzig, and the return of the Oregon brewing festival circuit.!
