The look on this bloke's face makes me feel a bit odd about the "Ultimate Lobster Experience". Another one from Vegas:

Here's another one from Vegas. Come on, FATBURGER? Seriously?

Here's one I took a couple of weeks ago on our trip to Vegas.

At the Mandalay Bay we stayed in the largest hotel room I've ever stayed in (it reminded me of the one in Pretty Woman) but I still think that overall I prefer the MGM Grand despite its lack of an inland beach.

Isaac fun fact: did you know that there are more hotel rooms at the intersection of Tropicana Ave and The Strip in Las Vegas than there are in the whole of the City of San Francisco?

How's about them skies, ladies and gentlemen?

I'm becoming a huge fan of Twitter even though I can't seem to drum up the same enthusiasm in anyone else I know. Anyway, you can follow what I'm up to at http://twitter.com/isaach.

Taken a few blocks down the road on Harrison. Presumably the extra minute is for the new day's shift to get into position in order to leap out at your parked car.

Here's another pic from the Mission. Does this not look like an idyllic sixties scene? Am I just imagining that?

This last weekend Wendy and I "got away from it all" at the Timber Cove Inn up north. Little did I know when we went that included in "all" was the internet, cell phone signal, and basic hygiene... the hotel wasn't the most sparkly-clean you ever saw. On the upside, we had a room with two chairs and a little stoop and an ocean view. We also had sunshine and a whole lot of not much else. Is nice; I like.

This afternoon I was filmed for one of these. Since I couldn't remember ever wearing make-up before, I thought I'd ask them to leave it on when I was done so I could see what it was like. In a meeting later in the day someone asked me why I looked somehow different, cleaner, healthier, neater... obviously this stuff works!

I just posted this to the wedding site, so I guess I should put it here too. I present to you, the Happy Couple:

I took this in England a few months ago. May's a good time for pictures like this up North.

Wedding stuff accelerating apace now; yesterday met with "Minister Maggie" a celebrant candidate. Today making invitations. Tuesday meeting a photographer. Gosh, anybody would think we were organized.

This one's from a while ago in Healdsburg, the town in which we're getting married.

Another fifties-esque colorful shot from the Mission. This one's a couple of blocks from our house.

Year 1 at Google completed, if you can imagine that. Happy vesting to me, happy vesting to me, happy vesting dear Isaac, happy vesting to me.
