We have to say goodbye….

We have had to say goodbye today to our middle kitty, Mitad. (This comes just two days after a friend of our’s had to do the same thing.) This is very sudden as Emil only took her to the vet this morning. It’s also a surprise for both us and the vet as Mitad is [...]

Cheesy or not?

As we are post-GAYla without a Fundraising Coordinator, I have had a busy week+. I’ve been running around town with a cab full of baskets and other silent auction goodies delivering them and taking money. Two such deliveries were to occur at ~5pm this evening.
In addition, we have a big/looming deadline at work. I was [...]

cold.

damn this cold.
I started to feel it on Tuesday, but a huge deadline at work (for which I’m the last one to touch the documents) kept me at work until Wednesday at ~3:30. I went home with a fever and chills, got into my warmest pajamas, and crawled into a heavily covered bed. I stayed [...]

2007 in review

Who’s gonna “Kick Hanson’s Ass”

It’s been a while since we posted something funny Emil has said. It’s not for a lack of content, but more for a lack of the web nearby when he does it.
Backstory: One of my early days working at TEEX, I clicked to send an instant message to my boss, Laine. I noticed the song [...]

Thanksgiving

Today was a wonderful day with Emil’s family and some extended/in-laws. It was a lovely day of food, good conversation, football, chasing the sweetest great-nieces and great-nephews you’ve ever known, and genuine care, concern, and love for one another.
THIS is what the holidays—all of them—are about.
We wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. Be safe. [...]
