Happy Independence Day!

Friday, July 4th, 2008 - 08:25:06 PM

Lake Burien swarms with gnats and paddleboats alike as every dock and patio circling this little urban getaway bustles with laughing, splashing and summer fun. Next door a live band belts out feel-good tunes that echo across the water, the steady buzz of activity occasionally peaking in a stray explosion of firecrackers or a batch of whistling bottle rockets. The scent of bbq grills and sweet summer fruit mixes with smoking fuses and the fresh, cool breeze of the lake, pushing flags to full mast and sending the dozens of party rafts wafting lazily about on this perfect summer Seattle evening. It's July 4th as America's founders intended, and a day to remember all the good things about this country, and take a break from worrying about the bad. Happy Independence Day, my fellow Americans!

Back in Seattle, no tan.

Thursday, June 26th, 2008 - 03:01:43 PM

I'm back in Seattle today, in case you missed that in the moblog post earlier. I wasn't outside very much this week in Denver, spending most of the 90+ degree days in a conference room with the blinds drawn, but there was a refreshing fire drill on Tuesday that forced us all outside.

It was a great few days with my new team, meeting the ones I had only heard on the phone and - more significantly - spending time in a new capacity with several of my friends from around the company that previously I didn't have many opportunities to see other than socially. It was especially great to see Katie, as since she moved to SF two years ago it's been tough to keep in touch. We both came away from the team summit feeling a little overwhelmed, a little flattered, and a lot blown away at the big challenges and opportunities in our career paths now. Now that we're both part of a global team with the freedom to travel wherever our jobs require, I'm very excited that we'll be able to see a lot more of each other.

GTA Moment

It's sitting there, with the keys in it, running. I could totally jump in it and go on a rampage around Seattle.

I did that once with an enourmous bull dozer that I found in the woods with the keys in it. We made rodes and knocked over trees for hours. Then we had a problem. We could not figure out how to turn it off, so we left it running....

You totally should have done it!!

Out of any of my friends, I should expect that it'd be you that would have GTA'd a bulldozer. :)

It may not be central London, but at least there are mountains. :)
