The big chill

Holly and I booked our vacation today, an Alaskan cruise in early June. The day after Smith's wedding in Maryland, we're flying from Baltimore to Seattle in the morning and in the afternoon setting sail for a week. Glaciers, whales, mint schnapps... we're excited.

Odds and ends:

• See Children of Men and Pan's Labyrinth. You're welcome.
• Looking forward to a Super Bowl in which I have a rooting interest. (The Colts are the second-closest NFL team to this pro-sports-less burg, and my job is across the river in Indiana.)
• Mojo's and Moxie's first birthday is Tuesday. They still have only two gears - neutral and fifth. They're on their last bag of kitten chow before they graduate to the grown-up stuff, which makes me a little sad.
• I am slowly and unsurely returning to running shape. But the gym's new treadmills have individual TV screens, so the sky's the limit!
