Yeah, I used this graphic last year, but it still makes me laugh.
I hope everyone has a fantastic holiday filled with people and things you enjoy and nothing you don’t!

Happy Halloween!!!
jewel October 31st, 2009
Unfortunately, the fun pics of the Big Bad Wolf making scary gestures toward Little Red Riding Hood are on someone else’s camera, for now, so you’re stuck with this one. Still, it was fun!
Happy Halloween Everyone!
Video Games Live
jewel July 11th, 2009
Last night, we went to see Video Games Live at Wolf Trap. It was a really cool show! It featured the National Symphony Orchestra who gave a flawless performance.
We got tickets on the lawn so that we could bring our cooler and snacks and beer. Took some camping chairs so we wouldn’t have to sit on the ground. We got there about 90 minutes prior to the show and we had our picnic and a beer and then sat back to enjoy the show. And good stuff it was. Continue Reading »
London TAM Sold Out!!!
jewel May 11th, 2009
Holy fuck! I just read that the London TAM in October sold out within an hour of registration opening! That’s Amaz!ng! Sadly, I’m not one of the lucky folks going. Just don’t have the money this year, but I’m extremely excited that the event is so popular. This means they will have more and maybe, just maybe I’ll be able to go next year.
I’d been racking my brain and going through the closets for things to sell to go to London TAM, but it just wasn’t happening. With it being sold out, at least I don’t have to fret over it.
Damn. I’m severely jealous of everone that gets to go. But, I look forward to reading all about it. Plus, I will make it to a future one. Damn it.
Virginia Wine
jewel April 26th, 2009
In the spring and summer months, my husband and I periodically take a drive to a few of Virginia’s many wineries. There are dozens of them, so we haven’t even come close to visiting all of them yet. They all have their own styles and personalities and it’s fun to choose a few, every now and again, and see what they have to offer.
Yesterday, we took a trip to visit 4 wineries. Village Winery, Lost Creek Vineyard & Winery, Hidden Brook Winery and Fabbioli Cellars. I linked to the Virginia Wine pages rather than the individual winery websites here because the info given is consistent and compact. The individual winery websites can be found at the end of this post. Continue Reading »

Jim Henson’s Fantastic World
jewel August 2nd, 2008
We met some friends in DC today and went to the Jim Henson’s Fantastic World exhibit at the Smithsonian. What a fun trip through childhood it was, too. I grew up in the 70’s with the Muppet Show and Sesame Street. Ah, good times. Sadly, no photography was allowed, but that is typically the case with special exhibits like this and I respect that (unlike a couple people I saw). Continue Reading »
We boldly went…
jewel June 28th, 2008
To Star Trek: The Experience, while we were in Vegas. And it was fun. Ok, I admit, I’m a bit of a Trekker.
We had decided to stay an extra day in Vegas after TAM to do a couple Vegasy things. One of those things was spending most of Monday at the Las Vegas Hilton’s Star Trek: The Experience. We’ve been there before, but it’s been nearly 10 years and they’ve added quite a few things since then. Since our first trip, they’ve added a new ride – “Borg Invasion 4d” and a behind the scenes tour and several photo options. We went ahead and did all of it. Continue Reading »

Wii Fit Fun
jewel May 21st, 2008
Well, I hope so, anyway. I got a Wii Fit for my birthday! I’ve been wanting it since I saw it reviewed on G4 and it came out today. So, I plan on giving it a few rounds this evening. Perhaps I will even add to this post after I use it to say how I like it. 
Edited: Well, I’ve used it and …………………………………. Continue Reading »
