On the phone with Dell to get a server drive replaced. It had to be the Exchange server, didn’t it? Blah.

Monday musings

Date April 28, 2008

My video ended up coming out about as well to be expected from an amateur filmmaker, and it required a great deal of practicing my lines, a reshoot or five, and cutting some of what I thought would be the funniest lines.  I ended up filming scenes at John’s Marketplace, Belmont Station, Roots, Lucky Lab, [...]

Lead faces and whatnot

Date April 21, 2008

I couldn’t remember when I’d written last, so I had to look back to see what my last entry was.  Oh yes, my evening at Green Dragon with Beer Valley Brewing in attendence.  That was quite an evening.  As Hanne couldn’t join me, I went by myself, armed with my laptop and a desire for [...]

My face feels like it’s made of lead. Oog.

Punishment for doing right

Date April 8, 2008

I’ve been pretty lax about running in the last few weeks ever since Hanne and I joined the Portland Rock Gym.  In fact, I’ve been running exactly once in that time, and that was on a treadmill at the gym, so I’m not sure if that really counts.  Hanne was getting back later than usual [...]

Date April 7, 2008

This, of course, being said at a McMenamins with a beer nearby,.

Weekend brews

Date April 7, 2008

While Hanne was busy all weekend with homework, I spent my weekend primarily dealing with brewing and brewing-related activities.  The first two batches of 2008 went off (largely) without a hitch, and both are happily fermenting away in the relative darkness of the entryway to the apartment.
I say “largely” without a hitch only because I [...]

Seattle and back

Date April 5, 2008

I feel somewhat guilty that I’m sitting here drinking coffee and writing on my website while Hanne sits a few feet away and slaves over her schoolwork, but what can I say?  I didn’t pay an ungodly amount of money to continue my education and instead I can enjoy my weekends.  Hanne’s approaching finals, though, [...]
