2,000 Miles; 3,000 miles

Bike-beach

Somewhere during my bike ride to the beach this weekend, I passed the 2,000 mile mark for this year. Combined with over 1,000 miles for last year gives me about 3,100 miles total since I got the bike up and running again last spring. Let's see how many more I can cram in before icy roads set in :)

Unfortunately, I never counted miles back when I road in Menlo Park so I have no idea on the bike's total mileage.

This Is The Dog Who Made Me Love Dogs

Brandie's last day with us was last Thursday. We went to the beach in the morning, and she walked in the water a bit then sat with us and watched (and sniffed) the other dogs. Then we sat along the river path we have walked many happy times. It is very strange and sad to suddenly be without a companion of almost twelve years, and I am missing her constantly.

Apple Picking

  • Post a comment

So many apples - like grapes on a vine!

Here's a good post-apple-picking meal:

Melt some butter in a frying pan
Toss in some butternut squash or pumpkin ravioli
Toss in some peeled & chopped apples
Add brown sugar and cinnamon
Sautee a bit
Add toasted walnuts
Eat!

Career Meme Thing Going Around

  • Sep 13, 2007
  • Post a comment

  1. Go to Career Cruising, www.careercruising.com
  2. Put in Username: nycareers and Password: landmark.
  3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
  4. Post the top twenty results
  5. Put the careers you have seriously considered in bold.
(via Sumana)

I snuck in the 21st result, since it is "Writer" and I have done a fair amount of that, and wouldn't mind doing some more.

Not sure what the criteria is for "seriously" considered is, so I'll just assume it means something I thought about growing up or looked into/read about at some point in life. Of course, you don't see many "Desktop Publishers/Multimedia Artists" around these days...

I currently am #3, for lack of a better term.

1. Costume Designer

2. Taxidermist

3. Website Designer

4. Special Effects Technician

5. Desktop Publisher

6. Veterinarian

7. Cartoonist / Comic Illustrator

8. Animator

9. Actor

10. Fashion Designer

11. Multimedia Developer

12. Makeup Artist

13. Ecologist

14. Paleontologist

15. Marine Biologist

16. Comedian

17. Graphic Designer

18. Artist

19. Computer Animator

20. Critic

21. Writer
