One more workday

I just have to get through tomorrow, then we’re off for a long weekend in the West Virginia mountains. After all of the transitions we’ve both been dealing with at our offices, I’m really looking forward to having a few days away from it all.

On the tech front, the fact that Angela’s new car has an Aux jack in the stereo that we can plug my new iPod into, means I’ll get to play a little DJ while we’re on the road. 🙂

We actually did a test run of that this past weekend, and it works pretty well. The only thing I found somewhat odd is how much you have to turn the volume up on the car stereo, even with the iPod cranked pretty high. It’s as if Apple was keeping the iPod relatively muted to adjust for the normal headphone wearers. I don’t know if they do that or not, I haven’t paid much attention to the iPod world before now.

Anyway, I’m sure I’ll be posting some photos, if not during the trip, then certainly after we get back!

    So Angela and I scored some passes to the premiere of Zodiac earlier this week. It was a pretty good, intense, dramatic kind of movie. But I felt like something was missing. See, towards the end of the movie Jake Gyllenhaal’s character becomes completely obsessed with finding out who the Zodiac Killer is, and “solving…

    Weekend Wrapup

    We spent the weekend with Angela’s family, including a little trip across the border to Windsor, Ontario. It’s only about a two hour drive from where her parents live and none of them had ever been to Canada, so it was fun, even if the Border Patrol was suspicious of a car full of folks…

    Looks like the next workshop for Summation Certified Trainers is October 8-11, so I’ll be in San Francisco that week. I’m sure the training will be intense, but hopefully I’ll be able to get out and enjoy the city in the evenings. We had a good time when we were there for a few days…
