This past weekend Kelly’s father came to town to attend a convention. Since both of us spent much of the weekend working, we did not really get to see him at all until yesterday, when we went out to dinner. Now, Kelly’s father had decided to treat us, but he asked us to pick the restaurant, and he said he wanted to try something different, something he might not be able to try back home.

Forwards from our parents
Geoff and I both have Parents With Email. This is often a good thing as it is easy to get in touch with one another. We can email family photos and wedding related things back and forth. Things that 10 years ago would have required a carefully timed phone call can now be handled over the internet.
Except for the forwards. You know, those forwarded emails that you sometimes get? Our anecdotal research suggests that you are 1000.00% more likely to receive them from your parents than from anyone else you know. Or have ever met. Or will ever meet.
I love being the fun uncle
Sometimes, it’s just what I need to make me feel good. A few weeks ago Kelly and I hosted our nephews Will and Ben and niece Kate along with their mom, my sister Liz. The kids all had a great time. We ourselves had fun, too. And then a couple of weeks after that we got a card from Liz that included a card from Kate. Apparently she really liked her visit to the butterfly garden at the Museum of Science.

In lieu of content…
I bring you pictures.
No, not pictures of me or Geoff or the kids. Pictures from the intertubes. Pictures of animals that look like ours. Why? Because I’m tired and I have work to do and I just finished day three of New Job and my brain is full. That’s why.
So enjoy, or something.
A belated post-PAX report
Although I was fairly swamped with work this past weekend, I somehow managed to take the time to go see PAX East, the huge gaming convention and general geekfest organized by Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins of Penny Arcade fame. Kelly’s brother Matt came up from Philadelphia and joined Patricio and I as we indulged ourselves in a geek’s paradise – specifically, a gaming geek’s paradise. So go no further if you have a low tolerance for that sort of thing.
This post may not make much sense
I’m really tired. I’m not quite brain dead/crispy fried/toasted/speaking gibberish like I was on Saturday and Sunday nights, but I’m not far off.
Mark your calendars- April 12, 2012 8:30pm
Ok, so remember how I said about Nathan that someday I’ll be able to say I knew him when? I can already say that about my friend Dave.

Live Long and Prosper
This was sent to me by the always fabulous Amanda. It was tweeted by the one and only Nichelle Nichols and was taken in the Oval Office on 2/29/12. Yes, I’m going to make you click through to see it, it’s that good.
Thank You
Those two little words seem so insignificant in the face of the overwhelming response we’ve received from, quite literally, all over the world.
