Uncle Markie out and about.
Refresh for a different picture!
Its all about food. Or so it sometimes seems. We are quickly settling into a routine of getting up in the morning, whenever, coffee and fresh squeezed jugo (juice). Im so far the last one up, and am hoping to train them to bring me coffee in bed to get me moving. Sleep last night [...]
The boys are hot to get out of Puerto Vallarta ASAP. Too much traffic, too many people, too much energy. Breakfast is at Planet Vegetario a vegetarian restaurant half a mile from the hotel. It actually isnt too bad, even with the lack of huevos (eggs) on the menu. The TVP (textured vegetable protein) [...]
WHY do I book early flights. I Hate, Hate, Hate them. They screw with my bodily elimination schedule, make me cranky, and generally leave me lethargic by the end of the day. At least this time I have a decent reason to meet up with Cyndii/BamBam and Hummingbird at LAX so I dont have [...]
Spending lots of this week logging billing hours since later this week will be much lighter. I’ll have some hours tomorrow taking the conference call from the Alaska Board Room for E&A’s marketing meeting. Spent (for me) a bunch of time on the phone with MarkO at E&A, more work coming my way. Need the [...]
Out of the house by 10am to make an 11:30am photo shoot in Olympia. Guess this makes it the first road trip in the Jag. Rain, rain, rain is how I would describe the ride down. I love the rain sensing windshield wipers and the automatic headlights. This may spoil me for lesser cars for [...]
I was up super early for me to book rooms for 2010 — yes, you heard correct — 2010 for the Olympics. I wasn’t able to get totally what I wanted, but I did at least get three nights at the resort that I wanted, which was Whistler Sundance at Creekside, where the downhill events [...]
Honest — I’m hoping this will be the last post about my new toy. Took Fluffernutter out for a mid-day cruise with the top down (and my gloves and coat on). It gave me a chance to get a couple of good outdoor pictures of the Black Beauty: Or, if you want all the images [...]
Apparently some people (Swanda) are a little confused about what I bought. Can you say Jaguar? If you are British, it would be pronounced “Jag U R”. This would be the baby in the garage with the top down. Today was errands (running the spare key and boot cover to the dealer who took my [...]
My how luxury cars don’t hold their value. Price in 2001? $76,000. Price in 2009? $15,900 made less by trading in the old toy — my 1996 BMW Z-3. Retailfrom Kelly’s Blue Book is $19,500 or so. No — this one isn’t mine. But it’s a great shot with the top down. And mine is [...]
Welcome to 2009. Guess I’d better get ready to remember to change my mind when writing checks and invoices. Today was spend in “family” mode at Marybeth’s place in Tacoma. With regard to my suggestions earlier this month, well, there are teenagers in the hosue, so all things move slow. Spent the afternoon there before [...]
