Deals season

Kanye

While I did manage to do a lot of shopping for gifts this weekend, I was tempted left and right by stuff for myself.

Just this morning I picked up the new Kanye and Ne-Yo for $3.99 each on Amazon. They claim they’ll put cheap albums up every day for the next week.

Also, anyone who doesn’t yet have a Zappos VIP membership, grab one by Friday.

Any other deals I need to throw money at?

Sufjan concert

We saw Sufjan Stevens (he says Suf-yawn) last night. It was okay. Dude is a little boring frankly and I might have liked to just hear the music. Not so much the talking.

Also it was in stark contrast to The Tallest Man On Earth from last month. Which was excellent. You can listen to a replica of that on NPR.

PS – don’t forget to vote m&m.

Packed it in

We did finally arrive in Seattle and didn’t waste a minute. Sounders game. Gelato. Shopping. Pizza. Farmer’s market. Sprinting through the airport at Sea-Tac, our names being called overhead. Fun, fun, fun! Well, mostly fun.

Getting down to serious playtime with the toddler.

Happy Sweet Sixteen Crosby!

Holy cow, can you believe this lightrail?

A nice trip over to Columbia City.

Relaxing for a bit.

Grounded

We should be on the plane to Seattle. Instead we are in a seedy airport hotel in Milwaukee.

And my computer screen is fudged up.

But hey, free wi-fi!

Western Mass

Escape from the city! Look at me out in the nature!

Now it’s back to sweltering and computers.

I don’t scrapbook

But here’s a collage.

Oliver, Oliver and much more Oliver.

Weekend in Maine

Maine was as grey as Boston has been, but still offered me a good time last weekend.

Luckily, despite the warning, no lives were lost the day we were at Pemaquid Point. Alayne and Katie crept as close as they dared to the spray.

See the whole adventure in my Maine photos.

New point and shoot

After a few too many grainy, blurry shots of my little nephew, I realized it was time for a camera upgrade.  Here’s one shot I managed to snag on the new model last night after the battery charged and before the sun set.

Yes, the kitty still loves to camp in his kitty tent.

New glasses

I haven’t gotten a new pair of glasses since moving east. So it was definitely time to get with the program.
