So, through the course of doing some heavy social marketing at work, I stumbled across a twitter account with the most awesome background image: a little spaniel balancing yogurt cups on her head with a spoon in her mouth balancing a golf ball. I immediately turned my attention to Google image search to discover [...]
So Pumpkin pulled it off… she won the Puppy Love 5K! Most of the race there were a few runners ahead of us running without dogs, and on the last stretch, we caught up to the leader and used him to draft the head wind, but then I could hear some dog tags gaining [...]
So I was just telling AJ and Laetitia that I would love to enter a run or marathon or something where I could do it with Pumpkin, since we go running in the mornings during the week. Well, Laetitia found something just in the nick of time – The Puppy Love run, which is [...]
I’m letting everyone I know about this awesome iPhone/Touch app called Lose It! (iTunes link). I’ve been using it for almost a year now to count calories, carbs, and track exercise and weigh ins, and it’s worked great. Most of last year, I kept really tight to the program and lost 13 lbs while [...]
Francoise made one of my Christmas wishes come true, by getting me a Stylophone Beatbox. Today, I showed it off to Al and Ryan, and Al brought over his classic Stylophone for a spontaneous jam session with Ryan on the beats. I captured the moment on my Flip Video MinoHD (gift from Laetita), [...]
Laetitia and I are taking care of Newton and Kepler, which means Pumpkin gets to spend time with her brothers out at the Boulder Knolls Observatory.
As you can see, they are very excited to see Laetitia in the morning:

I was pleasantly surprised this Christmas with an awesome present from Laetitia – a Flip MinoHD! I have an iPhone 3GS, which can take video, but it’s no where near the quality I’ve been wanting. Pumpkin is quite the performer, and there have been far too many occasions where we’ve wished we had [...]
So we got a new TV for the living room, and the TV rotation took place: New TV in living room, old TV in bedroom, old bedroom TV in guest room. So, while we’re at it, why not hang the TVs on the walls in our bedroom and living room?
I got back yesterday from my trip to Germany, just in time for Laetitia’s birthday today. I got her a new hand mixer, but ended up breaking it in myself by making her requested yellow-cake cupcakes with chocolate frosting. It’s really nice to be back home and to also celebrate together: Laetitia, me [...]
