New Life In Austin: ACL Festival For Less Than $10
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008/09/acl-festival-for-less-than-10.html
ACL Festival For Less Than $10. Yes, you read that right. We went to ACL for under ten bucks. Our super-awesome neighbor happened to have two extra 3 day passes and we happened to want to go. Good shit happens. Unfortunately, I had to work all weekend during the day but we were able to see the headliners at night. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

New Life In Austin: That Purple Building On 6th Street
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008/09/that-purple-building-on-6th-street.html
That Purple Building On 6th Street. While I usually try to avoid purple buildings based on principle, we were really craving Thai and have read good things about Thai Tara so we covered our eyes and entered the newly painted purple building on 6th Street. After waiting for a table to be bussed for what felt like 10 minutes (probably 5), we were finally sat and ordered our drinks (Coke for me and Thai iced tea for Heather).

New Life In Austin: Meet Squizby
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008/09/meet-squizby.html
We went on our normal walk on the Town Lake Trail, which consists of parking by Butler Park and taking the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge to the north side, walking east to the Congress Avenue bridge (aka The Ann Richards Bridge), heading south over the bridge, then west to the dog park at Auditorium Shores, watching the dogs until dark and then returning to the car via Butler Park. Sorry, cell phone pics aren't the clearest. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). ACL Festival For Less Than $10. The young people...

New Life In Austin: Old Pecan Street Festival
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008/09/old-pecan-street-festival.html
Old Pecan Street Festival. The festival featured free admission (of course! 250 arts and craft vendors, musical and performing artists, art classes, dance classes, international foods, a carnival, petting zoo, and much more. Tommy Tutone, of 867-5309 fame, headlined on Saturday night and sadly, we missed it. Wonder if they played more than the one song? Kid-A-Pult in front of the Frost Building. Too bad they're strapped in). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). ACL Festival For Less Than $10.

New Life In Austin: February 2008
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
So this is the part where we wait. For over ten dollars. Suffice it to say I have since inundated Ebay with all kinds of crap hoping for similar dividends. I guess that is a positive as less to move will be beneficial in the long run. Hopefully, there will be some positive news on the job front in the near future. Links to this post.

New Life In Austin: March 2008
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Damn The Torpedos, A Date Is Set. Life ain't worth living if you don't take risks. We came to realize that this new life in Austin needed a swift kick in the arse. Without a set date it is impossible to set the dominoes in place. Without a date set it is hard for prospective employers to take you seriously. Without a date set, the train does not budge. So we picked the perfectly lovely Spring date of May 15th. Links to this post. Organization Is The Key. Thank you Google for Google Docs. Now we can both ...

New Life In Austin: January 2008
http://newlifeinaustin.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Time To Get A Move On. As the new year dawns it brings with it the excitement of knowing that this is the year that we will be making the big move. If everything goes as planned, we should be celebrating the next new years in Austin. In the meantime, there is a lot to accomplish. Find and apply to jobs that fit our needs. Decide on moving arrangements (truck, pod, etc). Arrange trip to Austin for interviews. Start the search for an apartment. Arrange trip to Austin for interviews/apartment hunting.

Jim's Diary: September 2010
http://jnbdiary.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
160; Jim's Diary. It's quite easy to reason logically and still be wrong.". Sunday, September 26, 2010. Did I mention how much I like Austin? Coffee on the porch - at a comfortable 71F - is a big change down here. Thanks to fairly persistent rain over the last week, this fairy-land scene greeted us amidst the Scotch Bonnet pepper plant stalks. It looked like an elf would pop out from underneath. From the Rogers Mushrooms website the closest match I see is Leucocoprinus birnbaumii. For me the story is usu...

Jim's Diary: Popo gets inspiration
http://jnbdiary.blogspot.com/2010/12/popo-gets-inspiration.html
160; Jim's Diary. It's quite easy to reason logically and still be wrong.". Thursday, December 02, 2010. BH's (Better Half's) Mom is here for a while. Chinese grandma's come in two varieties - Jya Po and A Po (Bower romanization - Google won't translate sounds into ideographs yet). One is mother's mother and the other is father's mother. Both are shortened to Popo for children. Posted by Jim Bower. December 2, 2010 at 6:57 PM. Miss my popo and her yummy cooking! You all are too lucky! Gung Hee Fat Choy.

Jim's Diary: While we're on the subject
http://jnbdiary.blogspot.com/2010/12/while-were-on-subject.html
160; Jim's Diary. It's quite easy to reason logically and still be wrong.". Monday, December 13, 2010. While we're on the subject. I knew it wouldn't do any good (and it didn't), but wanted the drones in charge of reviewing the recordings for sentient life to know there was some out here in the hill country of Texas. I am guessing that Verizon marketing thinks they are selling to meat puppets. I have been refusing to accept hands up my butt for years. Posted by Jim Bower. Beatrice P. Boyd.
