I thought that I would provide a quick update before we take off for Vancouver for the weekend and before I let another month go by without updating. Tonight my friend John and I had dinner at Azura and it was nice, as usual. Service was a bit crappy, though. When I have to get up and walk to the bar to order a glass of wine because we haven’t ( Read more... )

Yet again it’s been some time since I’ve updated here but what else is new? Since I last checked in I spent a week aboard ship for work sailing to Alaska. To say the least it was an incredible experience to be able to not only do what I love but also display my work in front of upper management at Holland America Line. While it was a lot of work ( Read more... )

Well it’s been a long time coming since I’ve updated my journal and I’m thinking that now is a better time than any. Since last updating, we’ve returned from Europe and we most certainly had a blast.

Exactly one week from today we'll be preparing to board Scandinavian Airlines flight 948 headed to Copenhagen and then on to Amsterdam. I really can't believe that the time has flown so much. I booked this back in February! I think of all of that I've accomplished in terms of language learning. I've learned a lot of working Norwegian to feel ( Read more... )

Anyone going to see her tomorrow night?

I guess the better question should be, "who's NOT going to see her?" =)

Well we finally got to put our plan into action tonight. We've chatted about what to do if we experienced a fire alarm in the building with the cats. About 1/2 hour ago we had a fire alarm sound and we each grabbed a gym bag and tossed one cat in each! They really didn't care for it *AT* all. Taylor howled the whole time. It was heck trying to ( Read more... )
