MPR news ticker says MN deficit is $1B. Why the hell are we paying legislators to give us special session budgets that we can’t use?
G’night, my twitterers!
In using my new 24” (!) iMac, I find myself not only using the left half of the screen, but leaning to the left half of the desk. Weird.
On my way to buy a new iMac!
Meeting 2 for the day, then off to meeting 3. Gah!

Time to curl! I plan to sweep my opponents clean off the ice.
/me wants a drobo.
About to go figure out some ACLs for Exchange ‘07. Not particularly excited about that…
Definitely a morning that feels like spring…nasty-dirty snowbanks, wet roads, peeking of brown and somehow-still-green grass.
I realize Sourcheray is a “columnist”, but why would the Pioneer Press print this? http://tinyurl.com/33er5j
Heading to the airport to pick my little brother on leave from the Army. Thank you, Army, for lending him to us back home!
Wine and dinner with Mr and Ms @tom_elko. I don’t think we’re seeing the movie….
Dinner at Pepito’s, then off to see “The Violin” at the Parkway Theater.
Just repaired my dead hard drive. DiskWarrior is my hero!

The worst part about leaving for Hawaii and Japan for three weeks: the daunting task of catching up on the RSS feeds you love.
I’ve lost it.
‘Third’ is an excellent play. If you can get to the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis to see it, I would highly recommend.
Dinner tonight at Level 5 and the play Three…a very numerical night!
Bon Iver’s new album is out. Go buy it now.
frickin’…I want to go back to Japan. It wasn’t frozen there. Or Hawaii. Hawaii is nice. But no, instead, I choose to live in MN…wtf?
Off to watch the semi-finals in the Japan curling tournament. US men are in it, but the ladies are not.
Getting ready for some fresh sushi here in Kyoto, and probably a bottle of sake. Sayonara!
Mostly shrined out after a beautiful day in Kyoto.
Looking for a free software to process RAW files from a Nikon D40x. Anyone have a recommendation?
Chilling in The Cube in Kyoto. Very cool mall & train station, architecturally. Off to bamboo forests and shrines aplenty!
I stayed in a capsule hotel last night in Shinjuku, Tokyo, and I actually got a decent night’s rest! And so did the four snorers around me.
Japan!
We made it. Theresa is off to Karuizawa (actually, she should be there now). I’m staying at Jimbocho Sakura Hotel tonight, which is a neat little dorm hotel. I’ll have some pics up sometime, if I can find somewhere that will let me plug in USB devices. (Incidentally, that makes it very hard to transfer pictures to my hard drive…)
