A Minor Correction

The carnitas we had the other day were actually pork, not beef or chicken.
Feeling a little better today. Probably a 4 out of 10. Not confident enough to stray too far from a toilet, but I should be fine by tomorrow. We may have to drop our beach outing from the trip, [...]

It Was A Bad Day, I Had To Use My… AK.

The last 24 hours haven’t been very pleasant. The travel gods are wreaking their havoc far and wide, it seems.
Last night Irma and her mom came in our room to watch My Big Fat Greek Wedding on my TiBook. I was playing Railroad Tycoon 3 on Irma’s laptop. It was chilly, probably [...]

Lazy Days South of the Border

Today was a very unproductive day. Irma had a dentist appointment (2 cavities filled), and I lounged around the house all day. We had carnita (sp?) for dinner, which literally translates to little meats. It’s like chopped up seasoned beef or chicken, I couldn’t tell which. Probably beef, from the consistency. [...]

45 Minutes on a Dirt Road to Nowhere

The plan for today was to drive to Uruapan, see some waterfalls, drive to San something and see a city covered in lava, drive to Tzararacua and see a bigger waterfall, drive somewhere else and see some pyramidish ruins, and then come back to Morelia and go clubbing till 4am with Eddie and Sabdy. [...]

At The Zoo

It’s a Peralez family tradition to go to the Morelia Zoo every time they come to town, and since Irma and I had to wait until 3pm to get our car from Eddie’s house, we took a taxi across town to the zoo. It’s not a huge zoo, but it’s only like a buck [...]

Another Day, Another Peso

Today Irma and I ended up going downtown for a bit. Irma’s mom’s getting some dental work done, two fillings today and two root canals tomorrow. Not fun, but less expensive than in the US. I have a feeling she’s going to be as high as a kite tomorrow.
We went downtown and [...]

Around Town

Monday was a downtown today. Getting up early hasn’t been the order of the day so far. We went downtown and wandered around. Saw the cathedral, a local products market where we got some coconut things and a slice of what looked like candied fruit, and may have been, but tasted like [...]

Freezes and Tacos

Apparently it was supposed to get down to 28 in San Marcos last night. We’re 6,000 feet up in the mountains and I was sweating. I guess that equator thing has something to do with climate.
Last night we ended up going out for tacos with Eddie and company. They have Big Brother [...]

Rollin'

We left San Marcos at 1:30am on Saturday morning, and didn’t get to Morelia until 8pm. It’s rather a boring drive. Boring enough that when you’re done with it, thoughts of the return trip fill you with dread. Thankfully I don’t have to worry about that until 2 weeks from now. [...]

Zero Hour Approaches

The last minute flurry of activity before hitting the road has arrived. Things you never thought you needed you suddenly can’t live without. Time becomes the most precious thing you’ve got. Everything gets quiet, and you slowly shift into ‘trip’ mode. Ah, the joys of travel.

Is It Launched Yet?

Matt and I have been working towards a deadline on a fairly sizeable project for the last month or so, and it finally arrived. This morning at 4:30am we launched the new and improved Texas Directory Online Dirty Love film

just came out with a new theming app for MacOS X, ShapeShifter. It’s pretty sweet, though there aren’t many themes available. I’ve been using the GUiPod theme from Swizcore Studios for the past [...]

Expensive Footrests

I was having trouble with my ‘correct’ chair height being too low to use the keyboard and mouse, since my desk is a standard 30″ high work table and ergonomic types suggest 27″. If my knees were at a 90 degree angle I had to look up to see my monitor, which is bad [...]

What's That Tingling Sensation?

I have just discovered that I have been sitting in my Aeron wrong. Since May of 2001 I’ve had my chair height set too high. No wonder my legs always hurt. Oi, what a moron. I even have one of their little ‘how to adjust your chair’ booklets, but I guess [...]

Stop, Don't Panic

It’s a weird feeling when someone tells you remove features you’ve already written from an application. On one hand, there’s a feeling of relief that you won’t have to debug a bunch of code, but on the other hand, as a creator, it’s sad to see good functionality that you’re proud of disappear in [...]
