dylan and i got lucky today and hoped an earlier flight from sfo to here. that put us back nearly 4 hours earlier than we should have been. woohoo! we did, however, arrive back to some crazy weather which included rain, cold and some snow. now i am snuggled with a kitty in front of [...]

dylan and i are heading home today. we still have nine hours to kill before our flight, but that shouldn’t be too hard, considering that it will take us about two hours just to get to the airport. after that it’s just a 9 hour flight back to the states followed by a five hour [...]

this weekend and last weekend, dylan and i spent a huge amount of time working in our yard. the results are quite impressive, at least to me. at some point i will post pics, but realistically that won’t happen until after we get back from japan. then i will probably do a giant photo post [...]
