Only half a couch :(

Sad but true; only half of our couch would fit in the elevator. The stairs didn't work either, not that anyone wanted to carry it up 26 flights of stairs anyways. A pulley crane up the side of the building was another option but our building managers wouldn't go for it. Booo :(

This means we have to order a more expensive three-piece sectional instead of the two piece we had intended. If we're lucky maybe we can get them in by Christmas.

Drat.

At least the half of a couch that we have is super comfy!

Our first Christmas Tree!

Contrary to popular belief, Christmas trees do fit in MINI Coopers. We'll be decorating our new tree over the next few weeks and then admire the view from our new couch. Merry Christmas!!!

Mortified in the MJ Shrine

It's been very difficult to do much work with so many Michael-eyes staring at time. My oh my; I'm not sure how long I can take this madenss.

Office Prank - Michael Jackson Shrine

My co-workers decided to play a little prank on me while I was away in Seattle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-PhVxsZykg

Thanksgiving in Seattle

Seattle was a blast with lots of great family time, board games, zoos, museums, acquariums, coffee, and uh - tons of rain. What else can you expect for Seattle?

I had the most amazing cup of coffee in my life at Zoka Coffee (zokacoffee.com) in Seattle. It was Thatcher's Reserve from the Elida Estate, growing region of Alto Quiel, Boquete - Panama brewed in a revolutionary $11K machine called the Clover. It was so good I savored every black drop with no cream or sugar.
