If you're reading this, you have too much time on your hands.
Have a pile of links to post over the next couple days, will get to them later. Meanwhile, we had a good trip to the coast -- beautiful sunny day on Friday -- and enjoyed the weekend. But I do know that I'm not going on a trip with a one-year-old again -- ever. While she was generally pretty good, we had to keep an eye on her all the time. My grandparents live right on Hwy. 101 on the Oregon coast, and if we weren't watching her, she would've bolted onto the highway. One thing's for sure, we're not going anywhere until she's older. We needed this vacation, needed a break, etc... . It was certainly nice to get out of the house, that's for sure. I'm not entirely looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, but what are you going to do -- the bills have to be paid after all.
Back to regular blogging tomorrow after I get through all my e-mail and RSS feeds.
