Some notes from the weekend’s activities:

• Second swim class with my daughter was a lot of fun, especially to see her make progress and really enjoy some of the activities.
• Trip to Richmond, VA for our godson’s first birthday party was fun and relatively smooth.  Sure, we looked like we were moving out of our house, with all the stuff for two kids in the car for a few hours, but the drive was easy, despite the rain.
• I don’t like people telling me what my daughter is saying.  I can translate better than anyone other than my wife, so don’t presume to tell me that I don’t understand her.  Irrational, maybe, but this really irked me over the weekend.
• Costco was rocking some good samples on Sunday morning or I was just very hungry.  I’m not sure which, but I could have made the rounds a few more times.
• Go Duke!  Yeah, they’re a really long shot for a national title, but it was nice to see them bring home the ACC championship this weekend and shake at least one monkey off their postseason backs.
• Go ASUS! My little netbook is working out quite well for me, as I type this on the bus ride into work.  I’m looking forward to testing out a few more of its capabilities later this morning on a video Skype call to my family at home.  I think my daughter will really enjoy seeing me at the breakfast table during the week.
