Back in sunny so cal

Happy 2009!

last night we gathered for what I thought would be a quiet feasting of delicious home-cooked meal with friends. little did I know the soirée unleashed the existential exhibitionist in us all. who knew the effects of downing pumpkin rice balls and pear cake! more evidence

Out on a Limb

Nashville - Our foray into Music City had nothing to do with music. But had to provide touristy evidence that we were actually down south. Our friend and fellow indie filmmaker allowed us to tagged along her shoot about state-of-the-art prosthetic research. Yup, saw a fancy robotic arm and a leg that bionic woman would've wanted. The hand can crush a can or pop a light bulb by curling its fingers. So we didn't volunteer shaking hands with it. The leg featured the world's first power knee and ankle. I guess the next step would be to program Bruce Lee kicks into it. If you're really curious, go to Daria's site: Out on a Limb

valuables

what do you say when intruders invade your home, steal your resalable items and leave the rest in a hurricane whirl? we're ok - thankfully, we weren't there when it happened. I was the first one back to make the discovery. yet as soon as I let the word out, I was immediately comforted by concerned friends and family. the tally of the damage: our gear, used & new. the realization: we're very loved, priceless. 感謝!

This Thanksgiving lived up to its namesake - we feasted with friends from our 512 Children's List while welcoming Luwen and her mom who hail from Luoshui, Sichuan.

Luwen tasted her first turkey and learned how to kick Noah's butt in Wii. Our party continued the next day at Tea Dragon. Very grateful for having all you folks in our lives.
