Packing up and heading west

There's two ways to parse that subject line:

  1. I am packing up, walking the dogs over to Monstermutt, and hopping on a flight to Las Vegas via O'Hare later today to hang around with information architects and help support the local economy. On Monday the 26th I fly to San Diego to hang around with the leading lights of the technology industry and regret supporting the Las Vegas economy. I return next Friday.
  2. On my return, Lisa and I begin the task of doing major, major spring cleaning. Theoretically this is for Seder. However this year's cleaning coincides with a decision we've mostly made to deacquisition certain things, like our house in Brooklyn Heights. There are various reasons for this, none of which I will go into on my public web site. It is a beautiful house and a wonderful neighborhood, we just have come to a moment of clarity about what we want to be doing and how we want to be living that no longer meshes with living in a five storey walk-up brownstone. We will still be in New York City, just a bit west and north of where we are today, assuming a million things align perfectly over the next couple of months (we are on step two).

In other news, Frisket and Sailor get along mostly. There are occasional disputes about who gets to sleep where on the bed (between the dogs, Lisa and I know we've lost this battle).
