Lifestream for October 4th, 2009
In our chairs, under blankets, watching the mass ascension on the kob.com stream… (we don’t have tv/cable/satellite – weird, i know…)
(and it’s not a religious thing – it’s just that if we had broadcast tv, i’d get nothing done. Internet alone, i can waste an entire day.)
@racquelmorris good on ya’ 🙂 and welcome back (again) 🙂
(and with a couple dozen video games and countless movies, we have no lack of ‘time vampires’…)
Well, it looks like we had the perfect day – today, the winds seem to be blowing the balloons away to the north/nw as soon as they launch.
Talking to billy in his garage yesterday, i came to realize that in many ways, my coffee bar is to me what a garage/shop is to most guys…
I’ve never made anything from my coffee bar for wesley but with breakfast i made him a caramel dark chocolate steamer and he is in love 🙂
It is small and no coffee but i put it in one of the cups he always sees us use so, to him, he’s enjoying his first coffee with us 🙂

Lifestream for October 3rd, 2009
We are in the car, on our way to balloon fiesta. I managed 2 hours of sleep, she got 6. God is good, he got us up. Let’s do this…
Dawn patrol is launching 🙂
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 RT: @balloonfiesta: We have an official go for the mass ascension
I uploaded a YouTube video — from the field – 2009 Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta http://bit.ly/2K89HK
Look at @balloonfiesta ( http://twitter.com/balloonfiesta ), they are posting pics live all morning…
Very sad to be leaving abq so soon. But a rushed mass-ascension-or-bust, third-time’s-the-charm trip was all we could manage. Long story..
(but we had a singularly wonderful time! 🙂 and still have a day off tomorrow 😉 )
Gotta not be lazy and flickr/youtube some of the stuff i got at balloon fiesta soon!

@balloonfiesta balloonfiesta.com says mass ascension is at 8am – i could swear it’s been 7am (sunrise) the handful of years i’ve been going?
Gathering and packing stuff for the trip to balloon fiesta… Want to leave shortly after @nurseterra gets off work…
(we got a last minute invite to stay with dear friends, the Lockmans… But, leaving saturday afternoon so it won’t be a long visit…)
Ok, gotta’ grab a quick bite to eat and we’re on our way to abq…
passing through Carrizozo…
watching Strictly Ballroom with @nurseterra… (the first film of Baz Luhrmann’s ‘Red Curtain Trilogy’ that ended with Moulin Rouge…)
approaching Los Lunas, 20 miles to Albuquerque…
Just looked at my twitter stream – i twittered about Strictly Ballroom tuesday night! It didn’t post it then and now it suddenly is…
I am HOME!! We have arrived in Albuquerque 🙂 🙂 🙂 wesley is trippin’ out seeing a real city – a constant "LOOK! … LOOK! … LOOK!" -

At this point, we are desperate so we are seriously considering a day trip to abq for balloon fiesta. Um, "day"? We’d leave around 2am 😛
@Thorobredz alas, our best opening is sunday, so we’ll head back to alamo pretty much right after mass ascension and a bit of booth browsing
@pixiepowder 🙂 balloon fiesta is an obsession for me – it will be my fourth aibf but the first for @nurseterra and wesley (he’s almost 4).

Not much of a househusband today – capturing some old George Gimarc and Dr Demento tapes to digital in prep for halloween month listening 🙂
In response to a question, here is a blog post i made quite a while back about "my view" on homosexuality… http://tinyurl.com/yav8uzu
so, that’s what a $10,000 home espresso machine looks like, huh? http://tinyurl.com/ybffesc (granted, it does everything but make sammiches)

"I know that some of you guys have done this already. How do we interact with the customer without coming across as ‘the snobby barista’ yet still getting people to understand that a ‘cappuccino’ is a very specific thing. Any advise would be immensely appreciated."
Watching 1964’s My Fair Lady with @nurseterra – ashamed to admit i’ve never seen it. (so far, Henry Higgins is my new personal hero.)
So many of the local twitters today are mentioning being hungover after Oktoberfest yesterday…
@Thorobredz is that someone else from Dancing With The Stars? 😀
