China pictures ...
are up (well, first three days anyways) at flickr. I friends locked it though, since some of the pictures contain pictures of people in my tour group, and I don't want that public. If you want to see them, just friend me on flickr.

Ice ice baby
Well, we're under our third winter storm/freezing ice advisory in two weeks, and the radar is showing this giant blob of yellow moving in to Chicagoland. Hooray...? I JUST dug my car out of a block of ice this morning too, boo ( Read more... ) -
A couple of non-spoilery highlights

oh god, the 80's
Okay, so I'm sitting here in my cube at work giggling like an idiot. Why? Because after weeks of searching, I have finally found ..... IT!
It's a short concert clip from one of my favorite TV shows in the 80's. I feel really old when I watch this, but I still think it's awesome.
