Bye-bye Bunks
We finally took the bunk beds out of Tim’s room. We bought them shortly after moving into this house for Andy & Nick, then Nick and Tim, then finally Tim alone. In recent years the top bunk served only as storage for dirty laundry and as a launching pad for leaps to the floor.
It also made an already dark room (north corner of the house) that much darker.
we have the ladder around here somewhere
We went to Ikea and bought a loft bed to replace the bunks. Pics to come later when we get his desk and everything set up- but the room is much better for a 12 year old now!

I’m going to put the bunks up on Craig’s List, but if you or someone you know are interested, let me know! They’re from This End Up, in great shape, really sturdy, can be separated into twins.

In web graphics black is #000000 and white is #ffffff.

House Concert- You’re Invited!
I’m thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting a house concert featuring our friends Steve Lawson & his lovely wife Lobelia at our home on May 31, 2010.
Steve is a solo bass player. Never heard of solo bass? You’re in for a treat. Lobelia’s ethereal voice blends and compliments Steve’s playing- it’s something I promise you’ve never experienced and will probably never forget!
These house concerts are one of the ways Steve and Lobelia support themselves (and their adorable new son!) through their music. We’re not selling tickets but the suggested donation is $20, and that includes snacks and drinks! (Food and drink donations welcome, of course 
.)
We invite all our friends to join us! Please shoot me an email to annieboccio@gmail.com or RSVP to the Facebook event page for more information (location, directions, time…)
Steve talks about why he enjoys doing house concerts:

1 : a persistent disturbing preoccupation with an often unreasonable idea or feeling; broadly : compelling motivation
2 : something that causes an obsession
I’m adrift. I’ve got plenty of project ideas, but not one that is demanding my attention. It’s been much too long since my last obsession.

Why we all need to pay attention and do our best to get a clue. Understanding how technology works and what the biases of programmers are is as important as understanding how and why I wrote these words.
