Well, fall is upon us. I’m either drugged or sneezing. It’s awesome.<\/p>\n
Flying back to Norfolk (pronounced “Naw-fuck”) Virginia today to do the second round of work with NASA. I’m back on Wed night. <\/p>\n
Friday, Jen and I fly to Michigan to become Godparents for Z, and M’s new daughter, D. Along the way, I hope to catch up with _earthshine_<\/a>, since I haven’t seen him in person since his wedding. Depending on how the scheduling realities on the ground turn out, maybe I can catch up with some other MI folks as well.<\/p>\n Finished one of the two sets of stairs on the deck yesterday. The ones we finished are “open stringers,” which means that you nail the treads on top of a zig-zag cut board. Dead simple. I tried to create “closed stringers” for the other ones, and wound up muttering profanity to myself, in the rain. I’m *sure* I can make it work … I just wasn’t able to do so yesterday. <\/p>\n That was the state when robotify<\/a>, technolope<\/a>, and capital_l<\/a> showed up bearing wine and cheese to rescue me. We had a fun time sitting around, watching TED videos (as well as videos of baby pandas, sneezing), and then eating way too much asian food.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, fall is upon us.
