Jen described it best this weekend: “This is the summer I’m falling in love with Saratoga again.” We had another action-packed weekend that was so much fun and so non-stop we barely had time to sleep. And we really appreciated our little city that much more. We got things started off right Friday evening with […]

Movies, more snow, taxes 2007, and running. That’s pretty much what sums up mine and Jen’s past weekend. Friday night we rented a couple movies and watched the first one that night: Eagle vs. Shark. It was a cute New Zealand flick about a shy girl who falls for a dorky guy. There were some […]

Lately it seems to be taking me until mid-week to write about the weekend that’s just passed, but better later than never. And now it’s Thursday, although I actually started this post yesterday, but then got distracted by posting Mullet Gabe online. After about two weeks of rain — not good for the outside painting […]

It was around this time last year that I was fighting a weeklong cold. Luckily, I haven’t had the same cold fall on me this year, but have been feeling a bit run down and out of sorts the past week or so. Not so much in a funk — that’s too strong a word […]

Imagine this: You’ve come home from a hot date and all you want to do is get your groove on. You park your car and you just can’t help yourself: You begin your makeout session in the car. If you’re the lady who was riding passenger in the situation, you’ve climbed across the center divide […]

Happy Spring! Though today’s officially the start of spring, it still feels like winter here in Saratoga Springs with the temperature currently at 19° and a 30% chance of snow predicted for this morning. I also woke up with a bit of cough and feeling tired in the bones this morning, so I may be […]

And just like that, the snow is gone. It seems spring is nearly here, and Saratoga Springs got a taste of it Saturday, when temperatures were in the 50s and Broadway was packed with people. It looked more like track season than the end of a mild winter. Friday night we took it easy at […]

Happy 7th Birthday to Stella Brie! Happy Valentine’s Day to you and yours! And Happy Dingo… ’cause why not? (Note two different links for H.D.) Friday afternoon I met with Saratoga Springs Mayor Valerie Keehn to talk about her involvement in the upcoming fundraiser auction for Universal Preservation Hall, the organization for which I’ve been […]

Friday night Jen and I hit O’Callaghan’s for dinner with Sarah and Eric, followed by an evening at 13, chillin’ to the smooth (and loud) beats of a live DJ. I worry about my ears lately: Whenever I’m around music that’s too loud, my left ear rings. Normally it’s fine. I suppose I should try […]

The unusually warm, snowless winter appears finally to be coming to an end this morning when we woke up to several inches of the white stuff, which continues to fall with a fury. As of yesterday, nearly all the snow had melted and we could actually see our lawn, which never happens in mid-January. It’s […]
