But not for a few more days. We snuck away from the Internet to have some family time, which so far has involved very little blood and only one boating accident. You’ll just have to imagine the fun we had, at least until we get back and share it with the entire world.
I’ve mentioned the video to Röyksopp’s “Remind Me” before, with its deliberate beat and hypnotic infographic style. In case you haven’t seen it, take a look:

Today was Eli’s first soccer game, which, in his under-five league, means all the kids bunch up around the ball except for the ones whose attention has wandered elsewhere.
All the kids except for this one girl on the opposing team who must have been 8 or 9. She could dribble the ball with either foot, [...]
I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed today. I realized this afternoon that I have about 17 frying pans in the fire and I’m trying to keep my hair from burning as well.
