Finances
So I can't sleep and need to do laundry so I figured I would do something useful while waiting. I started going over my finances and goals for if/when I move back to Atlanta to see how feasible it is in the near term.

Gas mileage
So I finally was able to get a measurement on the gas mileage for my scooter yesterday. On my last tank I got 95.3 miles per gallon. :)

Digital cameras
I am thinking about getting a digital SLR camera sometime very soon. Do any of y'all have suggestions and/or good places to go get information on them. What I am currently looking at is the Canon Digital Rebel XTi. -

Geekness
I have been suppressing my inner geek for far too long (about a year I think). This has come to my attention via a couple of things. First Clerks 2 (that whole don't do shit just because it's what society expects) and after watching some AMVs. I need to do something geeky on the order of magnitude as the PsiU Ranmathon a few years ago (mmm ( Read more... ) -
Sammimish River Trail
So lately I've been taking bike rides down the Sammimish River Trail. It's a nice little trail that follows along from the Sammimish River. It starts at Marymoor park and ends in Bothel. It offers some nice views of Mt Rainier as well as wildlife and pretty plants ( Read more... )
