Emerald City Comicon 2010
Alex and I went to the Emerald City Comicon (EmeraldCityCon) today at the Seattle Convention Center and it was quite the adventure.  We saw all types of people dressed up in some pretty impressive costumes—many of which I did not recognize because, apparently, I did not read enough comic books as a child.  I didn’t take that many pictures because I didn’t want to seem like a...

Chicken and Beer
Alex, Pat, and I went out to try and find the best chicken wings in the city.  Along the way, we ended up near the University of Washington and went inside of one of their facilities to explore for a bit.  We tried 4 or 5 places, and came to the disheartening conclusion that Hooters actually had the best wings that we could find.  Perhaps we will continue the quest again this weekend?  I...

Soaring Eagle and St. Edward's Park
Sorry for the complete absence of posts for the past few weeks, I’ve been lost and now I’m back.  Here are the two rides I’ve done since you last heard from me: Soaring Eagle, 2/20/2010 St. Edward’s Park, 2/27/2010 Both were relatively short, since we had fewer riders than usual, and yesterday I was sick :(  Hopefully, this upcoming week will yield a longer ride!

Home Sick from Work
When you’re in grade school, being sick is usually a blessing.  Most of the time, you’re not actually that ill—even if you are you just watch tv all day while you eat soup.  Best of all you don’t fall behind because you can do your algebra problems between home room and first period the next day.  It’s ironic that when you’re in the work force being sick is a...

Ride 2: Soaring Eagle
Took my second ride today and boy was I huffing and puffing.  I pushed myself harder this time around and had a great time.  I hope that I can keep making this much ground (in terms of fitness) every week.  It’s been a blast so far; check out the ride here.

Partying with Bezos!
Amazon has a yearly party celebrating the hard work of their employees; there are usually free drinks, live entertainment, music, dancing, and food—this year was no different.  When Alex & I arrived we received our “drink vouchers” which allowed you to use the open bar, and checked our coats in.  We started walking around and immediately I saw two acrobats starting a routine...
