Escaping the heat
Thursday, June 25, 2009
 
It may only be June, but it is just ridiculously hot here in Houston.  I’m just dying to escape the triple-digit temperatures and go somewhere cooler...like the center of a live volcano.

OK everyone, I’ve got on Twitter for my work.  So if you want to keep up with all the latest developments in medical imaging -- and even if you don’t, start following me @MedImgMark on Twitter.

We traded in our dilapidated 99 Ford Taurus (aka The Meatloaf) and got a certified pre-owned 2006 Infiniti G35 with 38k miles.  We are both very excited about having the new car and we’re currently entertaining naming suggestions.
 
Our little girls have already had

The battle of San Jac, the world’s cutest creature, MI DSP and Albuquerque
Sunday, April 12, 2009
 
Towards the end of March, my sister and her Fiance Filip visited for a week from London.  Pictures of their week are here.  We took them to the zoo to see “the world’s cutest creature,” Toby, and generally ate a lot of bad American food.  Not good for me in my non-workout state, but so good.
