Wait, Labor Day already? Oh goodness.

I'm trying to take this three day weekend to catch up on my photo editing. I'm currently editing photos from early-mid July - but the photos I'm posting here are still from back in May!  So, I might be posting more than one entry today, or this week.  I know, I know, I say that a lot and rarely actually do it, but... we'll see.

As for this long weekend, we kicked it off by driving down to Cincinnati on Friday to see our friend Joe Garcia - aka Hoseff play a show down there.  Then we stayed in a very fancy hotel before making our way back up to Columbus on Saturday, where we spent the day catching up with friends that live there.  Finally made our way back to Akron Sunday morning, and went out in the afternoon to buy Dominion: Dark Ages and that pretty much sucked up the rest of Sunday (it's good).

Only four more days of work until I take an entire week off!  And less than four more weeks until the Akron Marathon!  Did I mention I'm running in the marathon? Not the entire thing, you can run it as a relay team, and I'm running 5 miles. I'm pretty excited!

Back in early July I posted about the new floors that John and our friends put into the family room. Here's one of the transition pieces that John put in between the entryway tile and the family room. Pretty good match for being from a completely different store/brand!

Maia. Always on my clothes.

I somehow missed one of my hair cut appointments and it got really long and annoying.

I did a talk about using Gimp to edit photos for a local Web special interest group.  It went pretty well, but perhaps my favorite part was after the talk, when I walked around the (very) small college campus and got some photos of the buildings.
