If I see another snowflake before next November. I’m not so much tired of the snow itself. I’m tired of the traffic, the roads, the clouds. I’m a solar powered person and this is all really beginning to take a toll on my overall mood. blah.
Thank you so much to my parents and Jennifer (an old high school friend of Christopher’s) for their generous support!!
Kelli’s First Snow Day
0 Comments Published by Kelli February 19th, 2003 in Ramblings, Washington, DC.After nearly three years on the East Coast, I fianally enjoyed my very first “official” snow day.

I’ve spent a bit of time today adding some new functionality. Although the search feature isn’t new, I’ve cleaned up the results page to fit in with the site design more. I also fixed a little bug in the navigation that was driving me insane. Specifically, however, I added a subscription service […]
My friend Jimmy and I are both big reality TV fans. We’ve gradually turned our Monday nights into a ritual of television. For starters, he’s gotten me into watching 24. Unfortunately, I missed the entire first season last year, so we’ve been watching his DVD set of season one. I think […]
Finally, I’ve taken the time to go through some of my old archives and correct them such that they appear on the list. It’s a long story, but we’re up and running now.
I’ve recently retired the AIDSRide site, making way for my latest endeavor. This year, I’ll be participating in a two-day century benefiting the Snow Valley MS 150 Bike Tour. The route is said to be a challenging climb, winding through the Virginia countryside from The Plains to Leesburg. I’m looking forward to […]
