So, the blog redesign is going really well. The sainted individual who I hired earlier this month seems to be ready with the final design. She’s unavailable until 10/7 so I guess the new design will make its big debut sometime after that. It’s GORGEOUS, peeps. Love it!
Month: September 2008
Deep fried in awesome…
So, Gene and I went to see Last Comic Standing – Live! last week. Before the show we had dinner at a nice restaurant. We both had steak and split an order of crab cakes (mmm, crab cakes!) and for our side dish we split Truffle French Fries. OMG. Delicious. Every time I popped one…
Birds, the Sequel (again)
Another dead bird in the living room. AUUUUUGH. I am so pleased that Gene was still on Dead Bird duty. (Which only means I will be in a LOT of trouble when the next one finds its way into our house).
So then why is it called a LAPtop?
When my laptop is on my lap, the fan runs about 5000 rpm (I assume it’s per minute). When it’s on the plastic tray and THEN on my lap, the fan runs about 3500 rpm. What does it mean when your laptop can’t handle being on your lap? Oy.
This, again?
There were LINES at the gas station. (Technically, there were lines at the FOURTH gas station as two of the others had NO GAS again and the third had lines and I thought, oh, as if! Not waiting in a line to get gas…). Well, funny enough, I ended up waiting in a parking spot,…
Skeeball Wizard…
So I went to the outlet mall, with the Dave & Busters (where we went for my bachelorette party) and played skeeball. I’d purchased a card months ago with the intent to go to D&B every weekend Gene is out of town. That card still has points on it, all these months later. So anyway,…
Traveling for Complete and Total Idiots…
So I have been busy and not blogged lately. I am on the internet just about ’round the clock (which I am SURE my boss appreciates) but it’s usually just to see if someone has posted a thread at Lonely Planet called “ELAINE AND GENE, HERE IS WHERE YOU NEED TO GO!” Wednesday-ish I booked…
a tip, from me to you…
arranging international travel is a HUUUUUGE pain in the ass. I had no idea. Here is some dodgy math: A flight from Cheesecake City to Germany is $800-ish, round trip. A flight from Germany to Kuala Lumpur is $1500-ish, round trip. To make both flights one itinerary = $7500. Does someone clean my house if…
OMGOMGOMG
Gene’s travel authorization has finally been approved. I think we’re really going!!! OMGOMGOMGOMG. Now onto important matters: Okay, so I suck about taking pictures. In all of the world, there is exactly one picture from our honeymoon to Disney World and it was taken with a disposable camera. That I can no longer find. Actually,…
BOOOOOM…
Did you hear that? I think I just blew my own mind. (Yes, I’m stil spinning my wheels looking at all the cool options for stuff we can do in Malaysia. It turns out that the 7 hour train between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore isn’t the only option…airplanes go there too! And it would cost…
