We’ve just returned from what we both consider to be our greatest vacation to date, a road trip across the country on Route 66. The experience, while not without its snags, was amazing. We got to see so much of the country we’d never seen, talked to some wonderful people and ate lots of mediocre food. Our plan was to drive to St. Louis MO and get onto the Route from there and then drive as far as possible on Route 66 until we...

Kristen and I just returned from our trip to San Diego, CA for Comic-Con 2009! We had an absolutely amazing time, had lots of great food, drove around San Diego and saw lots of interesting things at the convention. We picked up a Zagat guide and took our rental car and GPS and made our way to some of the best restaurants that I’ve ever visited. We were gone for a week and every single meal we ate (except maybe 1) was at a non-chain...

After 6 fruitful and fulfilling months at AuctionFloor.com I’ve accepted a position at a company in California! The company is MemoryTen (memoryx.com) and they are the world’s largest memory store. I’ll be working as a web developer (of course) and it’s going to be a wonderful fit. I’ve been doing some minor contract work for the company over the last few months so I’ve had a taste of what they do and...

Our plans have changed and rather than going to the New England area for our vacation, which is coming up one week from today, we’re going to take a road trip up to the Niagara Falls/Northern New York area. We’ve been trying to keep the planning to a minimum in hopes that this will be the most laid back and stress-free vacation we’ve ever taken. We know we’re driving and we know we’re going to see Niagara...

It has been quite some time since Kristen and I took a vacation together. Recently we decided that we were going to take steps towards taking a road trip somewhere early this summer. Well, this weekend we made it official and booked hotel rooms in Boston, MA. We’ve been wanting to visit the New England states for several years so this seemed like a prime opportunity to do so. We’re planning to drive to Boston, stay for a few...

Kristen and I finally bit the bullet and Sunday we went to the Richmond Carpet store and looked at laminant flooring for the living room, hallway and office. We found a color/grain that we really liked and scheduled a time the following day for the installers to come and measure the rooms so we could get a quote on what the cost would be. We’re supposed to hear back from them today to find out what it’s going to cost. Hopefully...
