Checking in: It's been a busy couple of weeks, but we're settling into a routine here. So I'm catching up on news, etc. :)

That is if buying one of these doesn't derail me:

Yes, but my garage is all of 12 feet wide. Those power sliding doors are looking like a very very good idea.

Oh God no! The Pollen! I left the car in the driveway to cool off for 2 hours yesterday, and got something that looked like this:

Bleary eyed I sneeze my head off, lungs already sounding like badly tuned bagpipes.

Thanks Guinness.

impressive quantities of pollen.
We get dust in the fog, but *nothing* like that.
Closest is around August the tan oaks drop the fuzz from their leaves and you can see golden clouds drifting in the woods, not fun.
Did they beat the drum slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march, as they lowered you down,
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

That's enough pollen to kill me or at least feel like I've paid a visit to hell :-\

Reminds me of Jacksonville, FL so many pine trees and huge amounts of pollen.  It used to turn the lawn yellow.

My gray truck is day-glow yellow.

Pollen is blowing in the air like sand did in Iraq.

It's horrible.

I talk by typing at the moment- the cough drops and throat lozenges aren't cutting it.

Congratulations on the baby! It looks like our family schedules are very similar.  3 year old and 3 month old! ;D

My car purchase is light years from Mario's. :)

We concluded on the Honda minivan. We really liked the new Toyota too, but it's more expensive when comparably equipped and they apparently aren't making them with the stuff we want yet. I like how the Honda drove better anyway.

For the N. Americans: we also really liked the Chevy Traverse (a unibody SUV). We'd buy it if it had sliding doors. I hadn't driven a GM that wasn't a rental car or a Corvette in years so I was really surprised at how well done it was.

And in other news my wife surprised me this am early for my birthday with what I'm writing on now:
