Tedo's Blog....: (05.01.2012) Meshuggah + Baroness @ Emo's, Austin

Wednesday, May 2, 2012. 05012012) Meshuggah Baroness @ Emo's, Austin. To say I've been waiting a long time to see Meshuggah would be a major understatement. 10 years ago, right after moving to Austin, one of my newly made friends here asked if I wanted to come check out a show, a band from Sweden who had just put out an album called Nothing. Since then, I've had nothing but bad luck trying to catch them again. After releasing Catch Thirty-Three. So, this year I left nothing to chance. After hearing t...

Another Day in Paradise: January 2015
http://a-d-i-p.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Another Day in Paradise. Reflection and commentary on a retirement journey. Thursday, January 29, 2015. And for the record, I'm writing this post as Kody's sort of grandfather, as he was actually our elder daughter Christy's dog. But when Christy moved out of our house to her own apartment in 2013, Kody remained behind as her landlord doesn't allow pets. To be candid, there were other reasons for this custody arrangement but I can't say more without violating my non-disclosure agreement. Another favorite...

Cathy in DC: August 2009
http://cathyindc.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 13, 2009. Summer recap part 1: Ted, Sara, and Leili come to town. Well, sorry guys, all I can say is better late than never. Since I haven't posted pretty much all summer, I am going to recap all the things I've done since June in a few posts. The first one is about my brother's family coming to visit me in DC toward the end of June. Leili in the prehistoric shark's jaws! This one of the cutest pictures ever.Leili running to Daddy! Leili being sneaky with the remote controls.

Cathy in DC: My First Patent!
http://cathyindc.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-first-patent.html
Thursday, January 7, 2010. After working at the PTO for a year and a half, the first patent I allowed has finally issued! Here is the first page, you can find my name listed as the "assistant examiner". Although it says assistant examiner, I actually am the one who does all the examining for the case, but my boss is listed as the primary examiner because I don't have the authority to allow anything without his approval (and I won't for about 5 more years.). If you want to see the whole patent.

Cathy in DC: Christmas Tree!
http://cathyindc.blogspot.com/2009/11/christmas-tree.html
Sunday, November 22, 2009. Youre not the only one. I came into work one day last week, and they were already putting the gigantic tree and wreaths up in our atrium. Normally I would scoff at putting it up this early, but for some reason it actually put me in a really good mood that day. Bring on the holidays! November 23, 2009 at 1:34 PM. Lets hope yours doesnt fall over like ours did last year.). November 24, 2009 at 7:59 PM. The spacing on the ornaments is very even. November 25, 2009 at 7:59 PM.

Tedo's Blog....: April 2012
http://tedoblogger.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 27, 2012. 04212012) The Sword @ Emo's, Austin. After having seen these home town boys about 10 times during the first few years of their existence (2004-2008'ish), I hit a major drought in my opportunities to catch The Sword. Such is the price of having kids (me) and experiencing a meteoric rise to stardom (them, not me). But I was stoked to finally catch them again this past Saturday at the new Emo's here in Austin. 04 Hammer Of Heaven*. 05 How Heavy This Axe. 07 Cloak Of Feathers*. That b...

Tedo's Blog....: Opeth - Heritage
http://tedoblogger.blogspot.com/2011/10/opeth-heritage.html
Tuesday, October 4, 2011. 02 The Devil's Orchard (6:39). 03 I Feel The Dark (6:40). 08 The Lines In My Hand (3:48). 10 Marrow Of The Earth (4:18). 12 Face In The Snow (4:04). To say that Heritage. Opeth's most recent offering, is polarizing would be the understatement of the year. Gone are the death metal vocals, the blast beats, the 10 minute bone crushing opuses (opi? Now reign supreme. What exactly in the hell is going on here? That's not to say that this change is totally out of the blue. Over th...

http://tedoblogger.blogspot.com/2012/03/11192011-between-buried-and-me-emos.html
Sunday, March 4, 2012. 11192011) Between The Buried And Me @ Emo's, Austin. It is absolutely ludicrous how late I am with this review. Pathetic even. I have no excuse. Well, that's not true. Of course I have an excuse, its just a piss poor one. Its tough to express how obsessed I've been with Between The Buried And Me the past few years. They've knocked off some major heavyweights (Tool, Opeth, Neurosis, etc) to take the throne as Tedo's Favorite Band. 2007's Colors. Reviewed by yours truly here. To unsu...
