I finally have a broadband connection, so you have pictures to look at. The Paris pictures were pretty much a waste, but I might put some of them up later. Anyway, here are my pictures from yesterday, my first full day here on the lovely Cote d’Azur: The Morning Walk Le Chateau La Napoule
Yep, I’m in France! The day in Paris was… interesting. Jet lag is horrible. It’s four in the morning and I’m awake. I’m stuck on a really slow modem connection, so no pics or real elucidation or stories until I can find some broadband. But, I did get my croissant, a couple beignets, and had […]
With the President’s announcement yesterday supporting an amendment banning gay marriage (for my opinion, read this one more time with feeling), he’s opened a huge rift in the GOP. We now have a President siding with the ultra-right Christian Fundamentalists in the party and has just thrown mud in the eye of the small government […]
I got yelled at today. No, really, I did. One of the guys who sits across the hall from me yelled, “Kevin, if I hear you tell someone else you’re going to France, I’m going to scream!!” Yeah, so, I’m going to France, and I’m nervous as hell. Logically, I know I’ll be fine. I […]
I’ve been on a mini-quest to create the perfect mix CD for Max. When we go out, we always listen to music, always have a CD in, and Max isn’t shy about expressing his opinion about what’s playing. So, for the past year, I’ve been making mix cd’s trying to find songs that he’s never […]
Just in case anyone cares, I’ve updated my Wishlist. You know, cuz my birthday’s coming up and stuff.
So, I kind of killed nonDependant today. I’m no longer going to actively add content or try to create a community there. I’m leaving it up because a LOT of people get to the site through search engines, looking for The Constitution, and I think that’s kind of cool. I just don’t have time, and […]
All set… really. I am. I have plane reservations, and tickets are being printed tomorrow. I’m going to Paris for about 18 hours, then off to Nice for 8 days of conferencing. Wheeee!! Hello, jet lag, nice to see you again. This time, I’m definitely taking a tylenol PM after dinner, so I sleep the […]
Can I just tell you how much fun Drupal is? It’s not fun in the traditional “Oh look mommy, a new toy” kind of way.\ It’s fun in the frustrating “gotta beat the next level of this game, but that stupid monster keeps eating me”. I just set up another instance of Drupal for a […]
So, my trip to France has been approved, and it looks like I’ll be flying Lufthansa, which has a gorgeous business class. Wow… Now, I just need to book the hotel, finish the grammar refresher, buy new shoes, and read a bunch of documents. I couldn’t be more excited. Really.
