New Year’s Eve

Well, it’s been one heck of a ride this year, folks. The site received a complete overhaul, a long-anticipated digital picture section, and recently some ads to test out a new revenue stream. No, I don’t anticipate tumbledry “selling out” in the near future - we don’t get enough traffic to do that. But running a website still costs money, and we aim to offset that wherever possible. This year I blew up my first stuff in summer chemistry lab (the glass top of a sep funnel), drank my first cup of coffee (black), ran my first almost-sub 20 minute 5k (20:08 i think), had my first weird knee injury (still have to get that looked at), saw my first cross-dresser in person (at Whole Foods), got my first iPod (thanks, everyone!), grew my hair out long for the first time (it was curly), ate my first crab (less than 24 hours old, shipped chilled), and dissected my first cat (more fun than I would have thought).

I’ll be around next year, which is the year where I try to get into dental school. Your memories from last year, everyone?

Steve Wozniak Quote

I think some day it would be nice to have colleges have programs, very strong programs, in this sort of user interface but with a very humanist attitude point of view, and start playing around with new approaches. Some year, some decade, it might just come into the popular conscious to start making things more beautiful for people.

Home Tree

Home Tree

Our home tree, bought right after we moved in … in late December of 1990. It is holding up well after all these years.

Christmas 2005

My grandpa turned 80 yesterday. I always thought it would be a bit of a bummer to have your birthday combined with Christmas like that … the celebration would be so concentrated in one part of the year. “Bup” as we affectionately call him, is my only grandparent remaining, I hope he is with us for many Christmases to come.

Merry Christmas to all of you tumbledry readers; have a joyous holiday with eggnog (if you like it), safe driving, great food, and full houses.
