Oh Seattle

Well I survived the first half week of the new quarter and the weekend. Hurray! Rumor has it that there is a lot of snow around here somewhere and by god one of these weekends I'm going to track it down.

So classes are good and hopefully won't be too much of a challenge. The atmospheric radiation course may test me a bit, but hopefully I will be able to keep up with the rest of the class. Besides that my other courses are pretty simple it seems. The TA position is pretty laid back thus far. The lecturer is an avid skier, an Audi enthusiast, enjoys beer, and has pretty much given me his office and claims he'll never use it. So I guess I can't complain about that yet but this week might be troublesome with the students having their first homework assignment due on Friday, we'll see. I've also been managing to get some hours in at work to make an extra buck or two and it looks like I might get tossed a GIS project for the city of Vancouver, B.C. :)

Saturday evening I went out with Ann, Jeff, Smitty, Dave Carey, Stormy Knights (don't ask), and Mike Warner. We had a pretty good time eating a bunch of sushi (except Ann) and chatting it up. Besides that my weekend was pretty lame. I got some new climbing shoes and my feet are much happier now. I'm no photographer like old lady Rachel but I did find this little gem. I'm pretty sure that's Bryna's finger.

Out. T

So-o-o-o...nice look Tim. I spent the day starting out slow, but then got the Christmas tree down and out to the deck, vacuumed, re-organized Dads' closet, putting away the ornaments and xmas stuff in there. Got my winter clothes out of the box in his closet and throwing most of them away(including all my bathing suits, which are 1. Many years out of date and 2. don't fit). I am now planning to run, because that was my original goal, and Belle already did (she ate my cheap glove, so she was forced to crank out a mile or two...much better now. ok, later Mombo

Mother, are you trying to say that Belle now has to eat some form of clothing to begin her daily workout? Just curious. I'm glad you like my picture.

P.S. No sign of the jacket yet. But I'm confident it'll get her tomorrow.

When she ate the glove, I knew she was needing a run....as I frquently eat inanimate objects when I get stressed, also.

Better get that coat or I'll be opening a can of you-know-what.....
