Well, it's been a while since I posted anything about what I'm _doing_.
This winter, I learned to snowboard, you'll also find that I had a roommate for the winter, which was quite the experience for us both. Great fun was had snowboarding and I'm still in the process of posting all of the videos that I took with my helmet cam from a 9 day snow and insanity trip to Colorado with my Chicago peeps. Check out the pictures from the trip and the videos that I've posted so far, and some more.
Also, my sisters and niece came to visit me in February, which was great and resulted in many many pictures, partially because I'd just gotten a new DSLR.
I didn't really do much in the way of home improvement while I had the roommate, but soon after I bi-wired + bi-amped my front speakers and rewired all the rest. You'll notice that the wires are now part of my decor. Like it.
What really prompted this entry though is that I wanted to brag about my awesome new workbench that I just finished building. Designed and built from scratch by me, this is the largest carpentry project that I've ever undertaken. I think it's going to work out very well, although I might end up needing to attach some wood blocks to make it a few inches higher (it's only 28.5" surface currently).
There are some other miscellaneous sets of pictures that I haven't mentioned here, but nothing super worth mentioning... other, perhaps than the Rockbox Party Weekend, which included a trip to the Museum of Flight.
One of these days I really need to put an RSS feed on my picture postings so that I don't hafta talk about 'em here.
