Yeah, Whistler is not normally on their route. Still, big event, make it easy people!
What area are you staying in?
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

Yay Olympics!
My family is genetically young looking, but I think it is also because we are genetically fat. I wonder what that does to the statistics.
I am in the same boat.

That's cool! Is that your fave?
Nope. But a friend had extra tickets and we bought those. Tickets for hockey were over $400/each. Tickets for speed skating and curling were over $300. Tickets for luge? $50!
What area are you staying in?
okay, this shows we are insane. We are flying into Seattle (our tickets were $90 RT each) and we are staying with friends in Gig Harbor. We are going up to Vancouver on the AM of 2/15 (and not even crack of dawn AM!) taking the bus out to Whistler for a 5:00 PM event then back to Vancouver on the bus and back to Gig Harbor. Our tickets are on president's day which we have off and we are flying to Seattle on Saturday and back on Tuesday so we only miss one day of work.
Nifty! Though potentially majorly stressy. Or not.
I think the big stress is we are staying with J and G (and we have tickets for them but it might not work) and they have a 7 year old, and twin 2 year olds and we have Noah. That's a bad kid to adult ratio.

Ooh, bad. You can't let them outnumber you.

Yeah. They outnumber us. And if Grace were up to travel it would be even worse.

I feel like I'm having the budget olympic experience.

Sounds fun, Kat! Maybe a little crazy, but fun!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Budget Olympic is the best!
Dudes, I am so bumming right now. It looks like my company account got hit with a fraudulent charge. When I called in the first guy said it was so weird because this was the second call today for the exact same charge. So, definitely fraud.
Anyway, I had to talk to three people and have my card shut down. Sucks! But I only got hit for $113, so I guess count my lucky stars? But what I really want to know is, what did they buy from Empirestyle in Berlin?

Oo, but going to the Olympics is always fun!
I am STARVING and need to go find a lunch quick. Or I'll never get to work. (Oh wait! I spent the morning getting admin work done. Yay for my lack of total slacking!)

Coding and Sleeping
For the heck of it I Googled my open source project 'Giplet' that I haven't done anything with in years. It has had several new versions and features and been translated into French and German. Kinda cool, though it's now more a product of others.
