Hey, remember me? I used to blog here, back when I a) wasn’t spending vast amounts of time at work and b) wasn’t obsessed with getting the Holy Moly website / blog ready for primetime. Yeah, between work and blog, a lot of VERY late nights this past week, and not sleeping well besides. I haven’t quite pulled an all-nighter, but there was one night when I was up tinkering under the hood until 4am. Well, that’s gotta stop. At work yesterday I joked that I was accepting offerings of drugs, liquor, and chocolate and threatening to go to the…

I grabbed a handful of this on my way out the door tonight – some hotel dropped off goodies. I can’t believe an office full of women wandered off and left it all, frankly.

I’m trying to figure out a way to get Full-screen calendars in Movable Type [dive into mark] to maybe work as an ongoing events calendar for the Holy Moly blog/website (which is otherwise coming along). I hit a point where I really needed an events calendar that can be updated by anyone with a sign-in, or at least easily updated via email to yours truly. David implemented one that I currently have linked off the new and the old site, but it’s FROM HELL to update. And I’d like the ability to make a blog entry for an upcoming event…

Another recap-let saved for posterity: Another unlovely leg unfolds as a rush through a gate leads to a couple of bumped heads and an explosion of temper from Freddy that has not been hinted at until now. You know it’s getting bad when Jonathan is telling you to calm down. It turns out that water polo isn’t very hard, but spicy soup is extraordinarily difficult, and may just wind up in a puddle under your chair if you’re not careful. But seriously — don’t puke it back into the bowl, because that is really disgusting. Jonathan does some more out-of-control…

At the next challenge, the McLeods were the only team to choose paddling a boat on the Danube River instead of scoring a goal against a Hungarian water polo player. “We had no idea that the national team was so terrible,” said Hera. “They didn’t block one shot. If I would have known that, I would’ve said, `Dad, put a Speedo on. We’re playing water polo.'” Gus called the decision not to don skimpy swim gear “one of the best things not to happen on national television.” Dear Gus, I love you. Enjoy that next beer. Dear Hera, you are…

Fisheye is not my best look. This is what you get when you’re putting makeup on in the car on your way to an event . Hey, at least I wasn’t driving.

We attended a friend’s son’s Bar Mitzvah today – at the very end, he and the other boy had to drink wine after a blessing. The faces he made: “Yuck. Bleargh. Nasty.” The cantor made him drink the whooole thing, and then some. In the photo, young Adam is greeted by the rest of his friends, who cheered him as he made his escape from the sanctuary at last. We have another event to attend tonight – not as happy a one, unfortunately. This is turning out to be a weekend of events, though.

What a lovely day… well, now it is. The sun is shining. However, last night we got about 5 or 6 inches dumped on us so this morning I had to use the snow blower to get out of the driveway. David couldn’t do it because he had to get out quickly to get to an early meeting, and he’s got all-wheel drive. But I, in my trusty little Corolla stick, did not have the luxury or the horsepower to plow through the heavy wet snow at the bottom of the drive without firing up the snowblower first. It’s one…
