…it feels like the first time I’ve seen the sun at home since I got back from London. I came out of work this evening and the sky was clear, the was sun out and I had to rummage around in the car looking for my sunnies. Last weekend, and again today, I was reminded how much I miss the sun.
My friends called it…
I’ve been travelling a lot for work in the last few months, and there will be more plenty more in the immediate future. There have been times when inspiration has been difficult to come by and motivation may not be totally there. One of my friends called it before I recognized it, I’m approaching burnout. I’ve been here before, taking a few moments to look…
Some more good news
Had a visit to the V E T with one of the guys tonight, just a follow up. The good news is she has put on almost 3/4 of a pound in the last couple of weeks and is as feisty as ever.
That wonderful feeling…
I love that moment when I get to lay in my own bed for the first time after a trip away, it really does feel good to be home, even if it is just until next week. Of course after they had finished eating they guys joined me. This is DB’s shadow on the bedroom wall.
And when I got to Seattle… It was raining!
I’m a day late in getting this up, but it was nice to be warm in LA and Vegas. In the perfect stereotype, Seattle was raining and cold when I got off the airplane. I rather like how this longer exposure picture of the Mirage hotel from last night came out. I think a couple of days having fun with a friend in the desert…
How do they survive in the wild?

In all my years I have never heard a more vacuous conversation. And I’m including socially climbing 6 years olds telling me about the hierarchy of the elementary school playground, their plan…
Year of the rabbit
The Chinese new year does not start for another couple of weeks, but there were a few decorations up for the Year of the Rabbit that starts Feb 3rd.
King Kong
King Kong about to have an unfortunate accident with a guitar at the Universal Studios Citywalk in Hollywood. Seeing the sun was so overdue, it feels like it’s rained everyday since I got back from London.
Central Services: We do the work, you do the pleasure
It’s missing a few flex-ducts, but I still think the inside of LAX would feel at home in a dystopian Terry Gilliam movie.
Early morning…
I had an early start today, I need to get out of there close to on time for a change tonight. This is what greeted me when I looked out onto the deck, as forecast – Snow! I’m sure the more wussy local news stations are running “StormWatch 2011!!!” Clearly the Miata was not the smart decision this morning, but that meant I had to…
