  1. Roast Beef Sandwich at The Cafe At The End Of The Universe — Though the sandwich itself was quite wonderful, it was the Douglas Adams reference that made the whole thing so much more memorable.  Pictures inside the “flipbook” section.
  2. H1N1 — a week-long quarantine and the feeling that I had to ring a bell and yell “Unclean!  Unclean!” everywhere I went afterwards.
  3. Prometheus — My new computer’s name.  Prometheus can be seen as both good and evil depending on the interpretation of the myth.  Prometheus dual-boots Linux and Windows.
  4. Killzone 2 — a LOT of hours spent playing that game.  A LOT of swearing, too.  In descending order, my class preferences are: Sniper, Saboteur, Medic, Tactician, Engineer, Assault, Soldier.
  5. “California Of The Past” summer presentation — work-related event where I met a lot of cool people, got to play with a lot of cool equipment, and learned a little bit of history along the way.  We served cake.  No lie!
  6. Trip to Sacramento — work-related, #5 related event.  I realized that you haven’t gone all-out in interior decorating until you decorate the ceiling.  Pictures inside the “flipbook” section.
  7. Christmas in Arizona — Always great conversations at the dinner table.  I heard the sea bass was good.  Pictures and video MIGHT be posted…provided I can get those consent forms signed.
  8. A Moving Experience — we moved last September, and I’m still finding out cool things with the new place.  The cats seem to enjoy it here.
  9. Pimp Hat — I got a pimp hat for Christmas…I just need to find a feather.
