home sweet home...sort of.

We're home at last! I have mixed feeling about being home: I wasn't ready to leave the UK AT ALL, but as soon as I stepped in our front door I immediately felt relief to be home. There's nothing like sleeping in your own bed again; I real

Eric, if you are worried about how little Diego will do on a long flight, I have the answer for you: The Cone o' Silence. (Source: http://www.gadling.com/2006/04/01/baby-cone-of-silence/)

Just got home from a perfect ending to our incredible final weekend in London. We leave for York tomorrow morning, where I don't *think* we'll have easy internet access, so I must try to encapsulate these last few days in just few short pa

We are having a blast...and I do believe that Tate is having the most fun of all! For a while there I was starting to get that NYC feeling where there is *so* much I want to see and do and never enough time (and good lord, I thought I had alrea
Success!

The trip has gotten markedly better since the last time I posted. The housing situation has improved greatly. The suite fell through, but that is FINE with me. Jeremy, Tate and I are in our own, very nice room (our seventh roo

World Cup fever has been in full effect here in Leicester Square. Loud rallies have been taking place all day, with crowds of face-painted, flag-draped kids chanting and bouncing around. (I say "kids," but they're probably in their twenties

Well, the housing situation here has been tedious, to say the least. The flat didn't work out for a number of reasons, unfortunately. It wasn't the flat we originally contracted for, which wouldn't have been such a big deal except the new

We're here! We're here!
We survived the plane ride and have been in London just about 24 hours now. It is *so* great to be back! No time to write a thorough, coherent post, so random bulletpoints will have to do for now.

Welcome to the 30s club

My 30th birthday yesterday was great! It was pretty mellow (NYC was the "official" big celebration), but I have managed to eat and drink my way through the entire four-day weekend. We had breakfast burritos in the morning at our

I'm compiling a list of potential things to do with Tate while we are in London. This is mainly for my own reference, but if anyone wants to chime in with their two cents, I always welcome input!

*Train tickets to York are booked! (Thanks for the help with that, Taz and pixiewharf!) Had a momentary brain fart and forgot to write the date Euro-style...could have been disasterous, but fortunately my mistake was
