I thought I'd try posting using the jabber bot and see if it works. Does anyone else use the LJ jabber system? I tried it when it first came out but Frank (the bot) insists on being in his own group and won't go into the group I want him. That was annoying enough to make me turn it off.

A few days ago the mountains behind my house turned white. This morning I woke up to half an inch... er about 1cm of wet snow on the ground. Now that the sun is out (yay snow and sun together) most of the snow here is melted. But I guess that means the end of fall time.

Some of you, I'm sure, have seen this already. If you haven't, this is what a friend's house looks like this christmas. And no one can say that an EE degree from OSU goes to waste. And yes, this is a house in Columbus, Ohio, if you get a chance you should go see it in person ( Read more... )

Pictures from my London trip now exist. Linky

Ben, a good friend of mine from college is doing research for his PhD in London for a few months. Since London is a lot closer than the US, we decided to visit each other. Two weekends ago he was down here visiting and last weekend I went up to London to visit him. Lots of fun all around.
