A lovely weekend

The family spent the weekend in the Tri-Cities hanging out with the Elizabethans. It was very good to see a lot of folks I haven't seen in a couple of years (darn job) and I was actually warm* the entire time!

*for certain values of "warm" including "bleepin' overheated". but my hands didn't hurt, so all was good. :D

Q Are We Not Men?

A We Are Devo!

Whilst following up on a Dell ad I saw the other night which had an awfully Devo-sounding song (it's by Devo, that's why it sounded like Devo) I saw that they're touring again! And will be playing in Puyallup this September. Sounds like it's time for

NERD ROAD TRIP!!!

Happy old nerd. :D

Weekend Media Consumption

I managed to hold off on purchasing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows until 9 am Saturday. :D We hit the local independent bookstore on the way out of town; I read aloud to Mr. E for most of the trip. We made it to Chapter 20 by the time we got back in town. Now E is in Potterus Interruptus, as he's going to wait to hear the rest of it until Kid A can read it to him on their camping trip, and that isn't until August. (On the other hand, I powered through it on Sunday so I could pass it along to my Mom. Still contemplating it; guess it made an impression.)

Where were we going? Portland, for a concert by Rush. They've still got it. Hope I'm that energetic at 50+... ;)
