Thanksgiving Visitation Rensselaer Day 4

nobody@vox.com(shutterbuginfl) — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 23:25:11 -0400

I got my butt moving today and did something. I went out and found a geocache. I hunted two. The micro outsmarted me. I found the ammo box and got Paddy the Bear TB moving. I walked a little around north of downtown, taking pictures of the librar...

Thanksgiving Visitation Rensselaer Day 3

nobody@vox.com(shutterbuginfl) — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 13:14:56 -0400

Siiiiick. Yesterday was just full of sick and sleep. I did venture out in the evening and I can tell you, without any doubt, that there is nothing Scenic At Night in Rensselaer. I am happy that I get to wear my red suede parka and my white suede ...

Thanksgiving Visitation Rensselaer Day 2

Thanksgiving Visitation Travel Day 2

We arrived in Rensselaer at 4pm. I've got a room not too unlike the one that I had before, so I'll just repost that picture (Just imagine it smaller): Things look pretty much the same in the area. I went to the CVS in town and got some medicine s...

After taking Bailey to school, making sure there was milk at home, and delivering Mike's Social Studies project, we officially set off at 9am. Travel was overall uneventful. I missed the Atlanta Bypass so we went through Atlanta, which was cool u...

What Indy eats

nobody@vox.com(shutterbuginfl) — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 13:56:53 -0400

Indy will eat: 1. Anything that lands on the floor. There's a possibly that it could be food and he can't take the chance that it's not; 2. Anything that the kids like. It's obviously something fun and the best way to have fun with something is...

It's over. Now it can begin.

My candidate won and delivered a beautiful acceptance speech. The other guy gave a dignified and appropriate concession speech. My red state went blue. I can go to bed very, very happy now.
