Back In The Great White North

February 20, 2009

I’m writing this on my iPod Touch at Chicago’s O’Hare airport. Amanda and I bumped our flight up because there’s supposed to be 6-8″ of snow tonight and I want to get to Edmonton for Grandpa’s birthday dinner tomorrow night.

I’m a little busy

August 12, 2008

First, a quick apology for not posting very often lately. Second, a propalytic apology, becuase the next week will be crazy. Here’s where I’ll be, in order: The Kelowna Apple Triathalon.
