Time to pick some blueberries. Yum. # Picking blueberries was great. They were SO sweet. http://img.ly/1nRz http://img.ly/1nRy # Picking Blueberries with the Nielsens http://qik.ly/Cb4x3HwhfqmUzE2cSS5Agfh #

I wonder if Avenue Q will do something, given Gary Coleman's death. He's sort of a big character in that. # Okay, so after thinking about it, now I am listening to Avenue Q. I loved that show. (You can listen to it here) http://j.mp/abFPGJ #

I often find that I have an urge to turn a cartwheel, but fear that I will hurt myself in the process. I'm weird. # Technology is so cool. I love being able to talk to my mom while she is on the other side of the globe. #

I'm calling it now. Nolan will be walking by July 25. The little bugger is already pulling himself up and able to stand if not balance. #

For some reason I am more tired today than yesterday. At least the day is half-over. # I was tired all day, and now I'm not. Crap crap crap. #

We're safe and sound in Atlanta. Te flight wasn't bad at all. I'm gladto be able to read signs again. # If we hadn't checked our bags, we could have changed to an earlier flight. Too late now. Oh well, live and learn. # Gate change. Whee! # Ah ubiquitious Internet, how I missed you. [...]

Those melons that I bought earlier in the week are REALLY good. So juicy. # The French don't QUITE have Tex Mrx right. It wasn't too bad though. # What a wonderful end to the night. We had a great meal, and talked with a charming French couple. I couldn't have planned it better. # [...]

We just said good bye to the family. Now, it's just @bunki and me in Paris. # Holy shit! I found wifi! We're chilling out at starbucks, and enjoying ourselves. # Even Starbucks doesn't have free wifi. You'd think that Internet connections were rare and expensive here. # In Le Dome http://qik.ly/DKQgE9nTkBks3YRwz9I5Sb9 # I'm broadcasting [...]

After the Louvre http://qik.ly/CMTgZq58F5dMD1e7K2DaH1w #

I woke up feeling tired and sore. Today should be interesting. # We got back early tonight. We plan on hitting the Louvre early tomorrow. # Bionca sees the Louvre http://qik.ly/pKYTfFxdJ2yVS3c9z22wfn # I'm broadcasting video on http://qik.com/ustice and you can watch me live and even respond! # Another Qik video of us on the Arch [...]

Now we begin our first day in Paris where we aren't dead on our feet. # Couldn't find a SIM, so no Internet all day. I'll be posting a blast here with pics and maybe video. What a long day. # http://qik.ly/p8mXGUccfFAFpYTvEj35AF # Previous link was a video blog entry. We need a mini USB [...]

Whew. We are at the hotel. We've had a really nice day so far, but we are exhausted. There was no sleeping on that sardine can of a plane. # Saying hi to @phip7002 outside the window. http://img.ly/1egj # Stand-in Perrin finds a REAL cantalope. http://img.ly/1eB0 # I ordered hotdogs, wondering what the French take [...]

With going to sleep at 6pm, and waking up at 3am, I am now on Paris time no jetlag for me. Now to finish packing. # I'm all packed and ready. It's 5:30. Crap. Now what? # The ducks on vacation too. http://img.ly/1dsD # I'm glad that we got here early. @bunki's password is in [...]

Good luck Atlantis. Safe journey. http://img.ly/1d10 # Let my vacation BEGIN! Paris, here we come! #

Just one day left. I sure hope no one needs anything tomorrow. My brain is already in Paris. # The pups are clean. #

Caring up on my shows before we go to France. Treme is really good. # I really wish that you could edit tweets, or that Tweetie had spell check at least. I meant "catching." # The battery on my iPhone is reaching end of life. Likely because I use it a LOT. # Shame that [...]

We're headed to Mount Dora to meet mom and dad at Vincent's. Mmm… Garlic… # That was the first time that I have had clam pasta, and I was very pleased. It was a bit of work shucking them, but it was worth it. #

Medium was VERY good. I burst into tears at the end of it. Becoming a dad gave it weight. No spoilers for @bunki. She hasn't seen it yet. # The Sci Fi and Star Wars event at the local history museum was great. http://img.ly/19cz http://img.ly/19cB http://img.ly/19cA #

One the way home for lunch, my phone decided to reboot, and never made it. Time to restore. (Don't worry, I'll spare you the details) #

I resized the and split the partition on my Windows computer, and installed Ubuntu on it. Would say geek_points++, but it was just so easy. # We spent the day with mom and dad. We didn't do much, but we had a great time doing it. 2 more weeks! # NOW I can claim my [...]
