So, Jamie has to do a video shoot in Mallorca, one of the Mediterranean islands off the coast of Spain. What a shame, she'll have to spend two whole weeks there shooting video for some new hair commercials. And, worse yet, I'm going to have to take a long weekend to come meet her in the middle of all that, and pass some time on that beautiful little island. I think we're going to have to spend our hours of leisure at this luxury hotel sipping wine and eating delicious fresh seafood, all on her company's dime. Alas.
I'll send a (virtual) postcard. :P
All boasting aside, the shoot is going to be a lot of work for her - several back-to-back 14-hour days of nonstop work. I'm there to provide a much needed distraction during the interim. And perhaps to go spelunking! Lots of caves there, apparently - the most famous being Dragon's Cave. I'll be in adventurer's heaven; I just better remember to pack my +2 lamp of eternal geekdom.
Song of the moment: Maserati - 12/16. Instrumental rock - put this album on while coding and you'll forget where time went. I love comparing bands to combinations of other bands. I'd have to say this one is Jimmy LaValle (of Tristeza, Album Leaf) meets Blue Man Group. See what you think.

Paving the road to hell
I've finally done it. I've joined the blogging community. The blogosphere. Blogorific.
Welcome. Those who know me well know that my memory is expansive but often plagued with recall failure. And they also know I have a wit so sharp it's like .. um .. some really cutty thing. Anyway, this is step one in helping to document random bits of information that I want to remember and care to share with others.
With friends and family on both coasts and little time for synchronous conversation with all of them, I hope this lets me stay better connected to the people in my life that I may not see on a daily or weekly basis. So if you'd like to keep somewhat current on the goings-on then please subscribe, put it in your Google Reader, or what have you. I'll try to keep it somewhat interesting and not add any narcissism beyond what's already required for the act of blogging.
Note: I originally started this blog to make a little journal for our trip to Hawaii this last spring and am reviving it for the new purpose. So if you want to see pictures and musings from our trip, check out the archives.
Song of the moment: The Narrator - Surfjew. Man, I bet these guys rock live.
