Still Married

Posted on October 16, 2009 by Ami and has 2 comments.

We’re staying in Albany, NY tonight and we are officially married.

We’ve been through New Jersey, a vegetable oil spill (in the trailer kitchen after bumpy road), milky spills, some puppy spills–but now we’re all tucked in. And Ruby and I are married.

Monday is Funday: Contest #4

Today we took the dogs to a dog beach on the Chesapeake. That sounds so much better when I write it than it was in real life. We drove about thirty miles out of the way to give them special doggie time on the beach. Now, I should say that we have some great dog parks in Seattle. There’s one at Warren Magnuson that we like. There’s about a mile-long walk to a fenced off spot on the lake where hundreds of dogs gather every weekend morning. It’s that heaven all dogs are supposed to go to.

Ami and Ruby’s Infinite Playlist

Posted on October 1, 2009 by Ami and has 12 comments.

I’m working on our playlist tonight.

There’s nothing like a good sing inthe car.

I’m stocking up heavily on Led Zeppelin, White Stripes, and Faith No More. I’m hoping Wifle and Frances will accept a bit of Alice in Chains and White Zombie (you never know!), but then to soften the blow I’m adding Ella Fitzgerald and the Ditty Bops. Then, for some mellow mountain stretches, maybe some Crosby Stills and Nash, a dash of Sergio Mendes and Brasil ‘66, maybe a spattering of Steely Dan. Bringing it off the highway and back into town will be some old Madonna, definitely Prince, and a thick layer of Eurythmics.

On the Eve of Our Departure

Today we spent most of the day getting a minor transmission problem fixed in the Jeep. Not a big deal, but they got the wrong part, not once but twice. Meanwhile they couldn’t put the old part back on, so we hung out in limbo waiting for the fix.
