Bogs not blogs.

People have been visiting for the past 3 weekends. First Jenny Eng, then Anne
Marks, and last weekend it was Daniel and Yao-Fen. I hope I've been an ok
host. I do complain a lot about the hectic-ness. But. In my heart I live
for these visits because nothing is more precious than time spent with
family and/or really good friends.
For now I have a small new page of pics from these recent visits on my
images page. More coming soon I hope.
Oh yeah one more giardiacorp.com/mikewong thing: I am obsessively maintaining
a top ten list of recent interesting links.
This weekend I will finally be in DC, with just the locals. I am considering
going to a bog. I read about it in the paper today. So far Lindsey has
said she is "totally down for it." Anybody else?
Note to self: find out what poison sumac looks like before going to the
bog. Last time I saw poison sumac was in Scouting for Boys back in
like 10th grade.
Oh yeah last Friday I rode Arvinds bike, Yao-Fen rode mine, and Arvind
rode his other bike. We did DCCM (critical mass) and it was pretty fun and
chill. A billion motorcycle cops blocked off all the intersections for
us so there were no angry motorists to contend with. I gave out a stack
of my stickers to CM kids.
