Twitter-style Update

• Lovely three-day weekend, finally feeling completely rested.
• Saturday we ran errands, Sunday I did a lot of baking and we saw The King's Speech (excellent, save for the old woman one row down from us and her running commentary!)
• Follow the movie, Leigh and I agreed to only see movies at cheap theaters or at home, that way if someone wants to talk the whole time we won't feel like we've wasted $20!
• Felt very ill on Monday morning, luckily I was in tip-top shape by afternoon for some great skiing at Kincaid!
• Also spent part of Monday designing my new website. I'm keeping it very, very simple for now. Mostly just a home page with a short series of blog-style pages for various destinations.
• Really starting to enjoy living in a wintery place now that I have a wintery sport. Also very much looking forward to summer sports and seemingly endless sunlight.
• Leigh is very excited because her grandmother is coming up on a retiree bus trip and will be stopping through Anchorage for a few days!
• We are happy to announce that it looks like we've found a nice downtown apartment for next year! We'll both be able to walk to work, so no more 20 minute commutes on the highway, as well as our favorite restaurants, walking paths, and bars. I think life is about to get a lot more fun for us!
• Currently planning the following trips:
• Autumn: visit Leigh's sister in Las Vegas and hike The Narrows in Zion Nat'l Park (Utah), also stop by Grand Canyon and do some serious shopping.
• Christmas: Florida to see my brother and his family + Wizarding World of Harry Potter followed by a few days in Virginia
• Summer 2012: three weeks in Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam
• Looks like my travel dry spell is about to end. Let the planning/ticket buying begin!!!
