An Imaginary and Indefinitely Remote Place

We’ve temporarily relocated to Duluth and guess what? We do have wi-fi up here. So much for unplugging from the matrix. But we packed and left in such a rush I left behind some crucial items. Such as:

  • The book I’m reading
  • The Thank You cards, from the little man’s birthday, that I still need to finish up and send out
  • My sunglasses (prescription, of course)
  • Sugar for my coffee
  • A hairbrush or comb
  • My hairdryer and flat iron
  • Vitamins

And lastly and most importantly:

  • The power cord for my powerbook

I’m already in the red zone, folks. Thankfully the husband brought his laptop…with its power adapter. At least I remembered to recharge my camera batteries before we left. Soon I’m off for a solo photowalk in and around Duluth, while the boys stay behind to chill out and geek out. And when I return to them, I will come back bearing Pizza Luce.

  3. Zophia, oh dear. You’ll need to give me the details later.

    Misa, yes! The URL for the feed is here: http://www.massdistraction.org/weblog/index.php/feed/
    And I’m glad you enjoyed the bbq tofu :-)

    I’m glad you’re at a place with wi-fi! Duluth kids are out of school today and friday, so there are a lot of family activities going on. My son’s school is having a fundraiser at Carnival Thrillz today (http://www.carnivalthrillz.com/)& selling tickets for a dollar per ride. I’m going to post details on PDD.
