366 and counting…

Happy Birthday, Ella! I just fixed a bug in the History Site that was preventing any events with a day less than 10 from showing up on the main page. If you did an event lookup on such a day, the events would show up fine. The entry for Ella’s birthday is now appearing as […]

Catching up

Two short photo albums: Rachel’s Third Birthday Roma Lodge Italian Festival From Friday: Happy Birthday, Adam W.! As usual, I’ve been pretty lazy in updating the webjournal. Oops. This weekend was another fun one. Jenelle and I saw Anchorman on Friday. We comprised 25% of the entire viewing audience. We went to dinner at Gibson’s […]

Enjoy Roma

41st Place. Oh yeah! The 2004 Roma Lodge Italian Festival was lots of fun. I didn’t bring my camcorder this year — it’s always best to wait a year or two before releasing hilarious movies featuring the Comande family and their exciting adventures at the festival. And don’t forget about Mr. Roma, either. Though it […]

Team Cuisine

My group at work has a lot of fun together — probably because our bosses are always up for some fun event, whether it’s group pedicures and facials, movie days, field trips or today’s event — Team Cuisine. The Global Public Affairs and Communication team at Johnson Financial asked my group to take a trip […]

A tricky par four spanning the length of the main basement room. He said that it was next […]

Me Smile Pretty One Day

As some of you may know, I now have braces! They’re not your traditional braces. No brace face or metal mouth here. These new invisalign braces are clear, pop in over my teeth and are removable. My orthodontist took a mold of my teeth and now I get lots of clear liners that slowly move […]

Party Time?

The forecast is for rain tomorrow night. I hope it’s not too bad, because plenty of people are dropping by for a little party and fireworks watching. Yesterday evening, I managed to run 6.68 miles in a hour. That’s just under nine minutes per mile. I haven’t been exercising as frequently as earlier this year, […]

Splashing Good Fun

On Friday: Happy Birthday, Ed! On Saturday: Happy Golden Birthday, Me! There was lots of fun at a neighborhood carnival at Our Savior’s on Friday evening. There’s a photo album here and a movie of me in the dunk tank here. Yup, that’s right, I was in a dunk tank. It was a great experience […]
