Happy last day of 2007! I smiled and thought of Yayoe as Robbie ran around cleaning house yesterday. We'll be spending the evening with some friends who have kids at Isa's school. I don't work on Tuesday, so we're thinking about an outing of some sort in the morning and movies and pj's in the afternoon.
We wish everyone peace & happiness for 2008!

We had a great Christmas, visiting with everyone and evjoying family time. Soon we'll be off to another new year!
We did not get burried with the snow that passed the area. It always amazes me how the news reporters can find the 3 streets with the worst weather, and report from there. Our house had nothing but the usual Portland rain (and rain, and more rain). Isa was sad about this though. Even at work people were anxiously looking out windows hoping for some white flakes (though I think they wanted an excuse to leave early).



Just a quick note to say I'm back in town

Just a quick note to say I'm back in town. Still a little tired, but mostly back to the normal routines.

Side note to Adam - I keep forgetting to post that I have met 2 fans of your games in the last few weeks.
At the day-after Thanksgiving sale I was working with a woman who is a huge fan of your work. She had to call her husband on her cell phone, just to tell him that she met Adam Miller's sister, and that Adam lived in Eugene!
The other fan I met was on the airplane from Portland to Vancouver, BC. He was from eastern Canada, and had started a franchise of computer gaming centers. He was more technical in his praise, and was very impressed the quality of your games.
Anyway, there's a little afternoon ego boost for you : )



This is a view out of the offices window

This is a view out of the offices window. On the left is the worlds largest farris wheel, set to open next spring. Those are just a few of the cargo ships that fill the harbor around Singapore.
I miss you all, and can't wait to get home and see everyone!

This is at the Raffles Hotel (not where I'm staying). Hemmingway wrote here, and it still smells of old colonial money. Quite lovely.



Hi all, I'm here is Singapore

Hi all, I'm here is Singapore. This is a playhouse size gingerbread house in the hotel lobby. Yes, it's real gingerbread and candy! We're also having tons of rain here, except that it's also very warm. I miss you all!

Happy Birthday Robbie!!!! I hope you and Isa had a good day, and maybe even got to do something nice.
My trip was long, and I'm noticing that I'm getting more snobby about airline business class amenities (What do you mean we don't have on-demand movies!). We got to our hotel around 8:30pm, grabbed a quick bite of Mexican food (!?) and went to bed. I was up at 4:30 this morning, so I came down to the lobby (see pic) to pick up the free wireless connection.
We have appointments most of today, but if we get done early I may get to do a little shopping (tell Isa to cross her fingers).
I wanted to call last night when we got in, but (though it was on the check list) I forgot my calling card : ( Will you e-mail me the international calling card info for the card we have at home? I'd love to be able to chat with you both briefly.
I love you, love you, love you! When in doubt, use the family site to say "hi".
