As I mentioned at midnight, the date of today’s blog relaunch wasn’t just picked at random. On the contrary, I’ve had my eye on this particular date for quite a while. Why? Because this blog is called “The Living Room Times” — and, as of today, it has been exactly a decade since the publication date of the final Living… Read more »
Here are some things that I’ve done, seen, and taken pictures of, since I went on my “blog hiatus” last November: USC vs. Notre Dame at the L.A. Coliseum, November 29, 2008: Planetary conjunction over Denver, December 1, 2008: Toby in front of our fireplace, December 21, 2008: Pretty pictures of the Superstition Mountains, December 25 and 26, 2008:
