Burvil's Life: Sanctification in Progress

Just talked to some friends at Susan’s old church that started a side business, renting out bumper cars for kids’ parties. Seems interesting – pretty unique idea. Their URL is <removed>.

OK, here’s a narrative our trip that we (OK, Susan) wrote. Since it’s 3 pages long, here’s a teaser…. or, click here to read the full story.
After Thanksgiving, Susan felt a strong desire to celebrate our upcoming anniversary in France and also to see Donna and Didier and their family, who moved there. Donna was Susan’s roommate for six years in the past, and both our families have become good friends.

We loved the Louvre Museum! It was very grand, and highlighted art from various centuries from various parts of the world. Yes, we saw the Mona Lisa. It was actually not that big in person and didn’t seem that impressive. The nice part was that we could check in our heavy coats and bags for free while we were in the museum, so we could walk around the museum unhindered.

Well, Susan and I went to France for our anniversary not too long ago. Plus, it was kinda her birthday and Christmas present. We went to Paris and Toulouse, for a total of a little over a week. Pictures and more details are forthcoming.

I’ve installed Gallery2, which was fairly straightforward, but I’m finding that integrating with WordPress is a bit of a pain. I tried installing WPG2, which technically works, but the formatting is completely messed up. I also tried installing Lazy Gallery, which was meant to be simple. I also found from a google search another person that was tired of trying to integrate with Gallery, and gave up entirely. I’ve been tempted to go that route, as I don’t have time to configure all the bells and whistles anyway, even though setup itself was easy.

Anyway, pictures from our trip as well as more written details of our trip are forthcoming.

I’d say it was worth it, as I needed the time off. Since I’ve been back, work has been quite busy, as I had to put in a couple weeks of being on call as well as catch up on my usual work. Even though I haven’t gotten late night (or early morning) calls, it’s still been a steady stream of 2-3 per week during off hours.
