two-for-one overdue blogathon! set lists for march 27 and april 10, 2008

(that's my folks' place this winter - NB got a lot of snow, to say the least!)

'sup y'all?

So here's the deal.

The work I do is most busy at this time of year, but I had two impossible-to-pass-up opportunities to go away and take a little vacation in April. At the beginning of the month, I went to New Brunswick to chill with my folks and make maple syrup in the woods (I'll post another picture or two sometime in the future, okay?). And as soon as I wrap this shit up, I'm leaving to go hike the Grand f&$kin' CANYON! So to make a long story short, I've had to squish a month (or more) worth of work into about two weeks, and haven't had much time for bloggin'. Here's my attempt at atonement (pretty lame, eh?):
