Good Times and Bad Times

On Saturday I got some bad news that would send me shortly up to Fayetteville. I had to get some things squared away for work first though, namely getting a rip of Gegen die Wand ready to stream on WebCT for colleague Morgan Koerner's German Pop Culture class. It looked like a great film, and I can't wait to watch it at my leisure, instead of trying to get it to play, rip and get a decent hinted stream out of it on a short and collapsing timetable.

Sunday morning, while I left my 5 or 6th attempt with the troublesome DVD compressing, Grendel and I had an outing in Waterfront Park. I am really trying to treasure my time with him and make sure he has some good quality time everyday, since he may only have a few weeks or months left. We played catch with some palmetto bark we found and strolled along the boardwalk where the tourists congregate. I think he really enjoyed it.

Later that day, Gegen die Wand being taken care of and the boss being emailed, we headed out for the drive up to Federalburg.
