I feel a lot of pressure to come up with a novel title

I'm heading home (?) from our new house in Columbia, Missouri back to Denver to finish off my intern year. Leaving was painful today. Reasons #1-9178 leaving Mel and Lucie behind for an indefinite period of time sucks. Reason #next: we had just started to get our new place organized and perty. We have a nice new tv mounted over our fireplace, a garage with enough space for two cars AND the entire contents of our last apartment, etc, etc. I've had a blast over the last few days doing such grown up Lego tasks as installing towel racks and stapling in the contact paper in the cabinets. I had quite the blast from the past while mowing our lawn (twice) and listening to Led Zeppelin. Memories of Europa drive were rampant. I finally started digitizing my high school movies and, months after petey's initial request I will finally get Bad Karma online later today. More to follow.

A shout out to aunt "Mamie" for all of her help with moving and for her company during my Kansas city international layover. Thanks, dude! We will meet in the wild magical kingdom of Arkansas!!!

Button fly jeans suck.

Who knew Ace Hardware could be such a treasure trove of fun activities? I suddenly have an overwhelming desire to install solar powered garden path lights and re landscape our treacherous wasteland of a backyard.

The Columbia airport is "closing" in June for two months until a new carrier, NWA, starts flights from Co, MO to Memphis. Strange that for that period of time the nearest functioning airport will be 90 minutes away.

Jazz fans: what a heartbreaking finish, eh?

Lakers fans: boo.

Soreness from loading and unloading a 24-foot truck combined with rip-roaring seasons allergies have left my body in a terrible state of disrepair. Our piano made it upstairs, though.

We watched our first Blu-ray the other night in celebration of my new electronics extravaganza. It was Casino Royale. Daniel Craig is one BMF. I want his car and his poker winnings.

The live version of PJ's Daughter with a bit of WMA and KORITFW is so great.

I put a bird feeder in one of the trees in the back yard in an effort to attract more cardinals and woodpeckers. Melissa was kind enough to oblige this gesture despite her Sherbet-like distaste for birds. Pics to follow as I hone my ornithological skills.

This post must end before I lose it all from some iPhone glitch, pardon the heracy.

P.S. A google account is no longer required to leave a comment, so let's hear it!

Button Fly jeans? Who are you, Marty McFly? A member of the Brat Pack? Teen Wolf, perhaps?

congrats, though, on the move and the house and the awesome electronics.

Yes, a birds-weird-me-out friend. Can't wait to see the house.
