Summer Bummer

Posted by Exer on Thursday, July 1st, 2010

We’ve been having rain, rain and more rain the past couple weeks. Looks like it may be a typical wet Alaskan summer. Not that I should be all that bothered by it, since I’m not actually working outdoors at the moment. What do I really have to complain about, mowing the grass too often? I [...]

Alaska isn’t always a winter wonderland, covered in feet of snow. We are a green, green state, for a few amazing months of summer.

Puppy Tales

Posted by Exer on Thursday, June 10th, 2010

OK, well he isn’t exactly a puppy anymore, but that doesn’t stop me from calling him “pup” every now and again. Whenever my mom stops by to visit she calls him “grandpa”, but that’s just because she is evil and likes to pick on helpless animals. Yup. Anyway, here is my PUP out enjoying the [...]

Don’t Bug Me

This little lady decided to land on my brothers hand while we worked on his car in the driveway. She wasn’t in any hurry to fly away, so we grabbed a camera and decided to try out the macro lens.

If You Musk

Posted by Exer on Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Every day is a lazy day for a muskox at the Alaska Zoo. It must be a lonely life. I went with my cousin, who kept saying things like “They want to be free!” every time we would reach a new exhibit. It annoyed me at the time, but looking back on the photos I [...]

A Weekly Joy

Posted by Exer on Thursday, November 1st, 2007

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself – and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is. – Jim Morrison

Once upon a time, me and Victoria decided to watch a movie together on a Sunday night.  Two years later, we’ve only missed a handful of Sunday “movie nights”, and even when we do miss it on a Sunday, we make up for it by either watching on Saturday, or the following Monday.  It’s one of the things — for myself — that I most cherish.  My entire week builds up towards our movie date.I don’t think either of us could have imagined how special it would become – how much an important part of our lives.  It’s not just a “movie”.  It’s a small window of time that is just ours.  It’s our time.  Everyone knows not to bother us, and with very few exceptions they abide by that.  It’s not even a question anymore, we don’t say “So, we going to watch a movie this week?”  We just know we are watching a movie together.  The only real question is “what” movie we will be watching.  I like that.

Here are just a few of the movies we’ve seen togther (widget in the sidebar).  We’ve been doing this weekly for 2 years now, and we’ve seen well over 100 movies, so this isn’t a complete list.  There haven’t been very many “duds” either, so we’ve been pretty lucky.
