I was clearing out some old files on the server and ran across this: our full route map (drawn in small sections as we drove) of the six week road trip we did back in 2004. Doesn’t feel like it was more than four years ago already.

Anyone else remember this?

…but it’s true, I’m wearing an apron. Happy Thanksgiving!

Today was her last day at her current school; she’s been transferred to another program farther up the road where the district feels her needs will be better met.

The irony: it’s the school I’d originally requested she go to, but was turned down. Now that she’s had a chance to settle in and get a routine and make some friends, they agree she needs to be elsewhere and pushed the transfer through within days of the suggestion.

A respite from her feelings about that: her 14th birthday is Saturday.

Verizon offered us an irresistible deal on two new Blackberry Storms, so with the personal fun-funds we each divided up from the sale of my Previa, we made the switch from our two-year-old Treos to shiny, new Blackberries. Total cost for both combined, after deals, rebates, selling Shane’s Treo (the keyboard had gone out on mine or I’d sell that too) and free shipping?

$200

I’ll post some thoughts on it after we’ve had a chance to get to know the new interface. It’s very clickity.

At one time I had a sidebar script that displayed my last three posts in Twitter, but it would usually get stuck and hold up download of the rest of the page and cause various headaches, so I removed it. But thanks to popular demand (not really), they’re back – using a different script that doesn’t mess with the rest of the page.

Now when you’re at the web site (vs. reading via RSS) you can spy on my twitterisms in the lower, right-hand sidebar. How exciting!

(not really).
