This will be a short one. In the last cou­ple weeks, I’ve been focus­ing on oth­er things and haven’t read many arti­cles or played many games. I’m still a week or two behind in Bloomberg Busi­ness­week, but I found this… Read moreweek­ly roundup — Feb­ru­ary 5th

One of the best things I saw this week was Jer­ry Sein­feld and Pres­i­dent Oba­ma in Come­di­ans in Cars Get­ting Cof­fee. Both of these men are per­son­able, and I enjoyed their con­ver­sa­tion. Hav­ing Oba­ma open up about what it means… Read moreweek­ly roundup — Jan­u­ary 15th

I start­ed my week by read­ing an arti­cle in Bloomberg about Dis­ney’s princess busi­ness switch­ing from Mat­tel to Has­bro.

I have been in Salt Lake City exact­ly one month. Our apart­ment is great (albeit with a tiny kitchen), we have our Utah dri­ver licens­es and our plates (Har­ry Pot­ter themed, of course), and I’ve found a Luther­an church. The… Read morefirst impres­sions

Almost exact­ly one year ago, we decid­ed we were going to move west. We love Kansas City, but we’ve been here for five years, and it’s time for a new adven­ture. We want moun­tains and a more tem­per­ate cli­mate and… Read moremov­ing

In the past few years, I’ve been mak­ing an effort to read more. I start­ed by read­ing non-fic­­tion, and though that was nice (and edu­ca­tion­al), I want­ed to expand my hori­zons by read­ing more fic­tion. Here’s what I’ve been read­ing… Read moreWhat I’ve Been Read­ing

I host­ed a baby show­er for my sis­ter-in-law recent­ly, and it was pret­ty fun. It was an after­noon tea, com­plete with home­made clot­ted cream. No spec­i­fied col­ors, but she want­ed owls, so I did yel­low and laven­der (and owls, of… Read morebaby show­er
