Nothing better than some latvian food. Seriously the best food of all my people. We went to Mezza with my family because my brother is home for spring break. Terry and I split a gigantic vegetarian platter with falafel,…
It looks like e:paul, our coworker Patrick and I are officially business outside of Roswell. We'll be doing custom development work, system integration and IT consulting. Yeah it's a corny name - hopefully just a placeh…
Last week the county executive announced that he was going to pursue a ban or tax on plastic bags in Erie county - finally. Sometimes I feel like we live in an open air trash dump with the amount of plastic that blows a…
My parents chimney fell over. I'm glad it wasn't me helping my dad because he would have never believed it wasn't my fault. It makes me wonder what would happen if my chimney's fell over.
It's weird to see Underground so trendy and crowded. the last time I being there was with e:Paul after Exicison last year, when some junkie knocked a picture off the wall, and two patrons called the stressed out bartend…
On Saturday we walked around downtown with e:mike Down to canalside And over to the Irish Famine memorial, in the Synacor parking lot And over to the railroad tracks. This section used to be double tracked but they remo…
Have you ever had a dragonfruit? It looks like I would expect a dragon egg to look like. It makes me want to incubate it and have a cute dragon pet. We got on at PriceRite for $1.99 a pound. It has a very mild creamy ta…
As seen on e:Paul's desk. The moment when your USB rechargeable mouse battery dies, but you can't use it while it charges because the plug is on the bottom (?!). so it's back to a much cheaper corded mouse which never d…
I went over to my parent's house for Latvian food and dog walking. My sister and I discovered the snapchat faceswap filter while I was there. I think e:xandra is the best at these, but here's Mary swapping faces with th…
In the past eight months, bad days have been numerous. Not ordinary bad days, life-altering bad days. We got married June 20, a wonderful, joyous day surrounded by people we love from near and far. A few days later as w…
We took advantage of the warm Sunday to go hiking down at Chestnut Ridge. From the look of the parking lot we thought it was going it was going to be packed - but they all must have been on the eternal flame trail becau…
On Saturday e:paul begged me to go to the mall with him, e:mike and e:dave. First we went to the Como restaurant on Pine Avenue Niagara Falls. My meal wasn't a decent deal - salad, cheese ravioli entree and a cannoli fo…
We went to a going away party for e:keitht and his buddy Miranda at the Maritime Center last night. She's built a boat they're taking down to Florida with them. It's pretty awesome. There was an after party house party …
There is this creepy little room under the stairs. the spiders are winning the war with scooters.
When e:hodown was in town the week before last we took Zooey to the botanical gardens. Its so nice when it's sunny in there and it's cold outside. Zooey pulled her teeth out for the tooth fairy money. I hear it's $5 now.
I'm not a big believer in the medical campus construction, but I still like watching stuff get built. I feel like I can imagine myself putting my degree to use by thinking about how the construction is staged. Look at t…
We were in a desperate toothpaste situation, until I found out from Paul you can cut open the tube and scrape the last few uses out. He said his old East German friend Jörg used to do this. I can't believe I never did i…
It's snowed so little this winter it almost made me forget how much I hate the lack of shoveling, monster plows and salt that results from it. I love snow but this transforms me into a get-off-my-lawn type of guy. I wan…
On one of the coldest days of the year, of course e:Paul and I go to the Botanical Gardens with e:hodown and Zoey. A bunch more desktop style background picture taken. It's so easy to take nice pictures on a sunny day t…
Last night we went out to Coco with e:mike, e:dave, Tony and Maria for Maria's birthday. There was way too much food to be had. e:terry and I split a veggie pizza but I don't think we even dented half of it after the fr…
This was an action packed week in Allentown. On Monday night, right after we went to bed, an ambulance flipped over at Delaware and North after an SUV ran into it. http://www.buffalonews.com/city-region/buffalo/rural-me…
Last night we went out to dinner for my mom's birthday at Coco. The food was amazing. I love that restaurant. She got a pot of mussels which is her favorite. They had us seated at a great table. It was perfect. We got h…
In a final and feeble attempt at having an actual winter, the ice gods have sent freezing winds and powdery sugar snow to Rochester. After a month without a car (i totalled the last one), i finally got another Outback. …
