ex machina

the eric update - day 1333: yet. even. more. snow.

so, the day started out with odin's preschool being closed due to taking a snow day. the forecast called for "just" 6 or so inches when odin and i set about shoveling some of the white stuff before heading out to organic valley to meet mamma for lunch ( hmmmm. how many people know that both kris and i work for the world's best organic cooperative :-) )? we should have checked the forecast before leaving because while we were shoveling they changed the forecast and issued an alert for more accumulation with periods of heavy snow fall. the ride home was, um, tricky but all of us eventually made it back safe and sound.

according to the hwy department, larry the plow guy was taking a break during the heavy snow - wish we knew that before attempting the hilly, curvy drive home!

[ after not really "getting it" initially, i've relented and as you might discern from the links, you can get occasional glimpses into what happens "between the photos" by following updates on twitter. ]

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
