Weekend Wrap-up

My weekend was tragically shortened by one day, as Sunday was lost to a migraine. Fortunately, it was the first migraine I'd had since June of last year, which means that my brain is hating me less with each passing year.

On Saturday, we kicked off the summer by putting up the new badminton net (finally relegating the nine-year-old net that Anna bought for the house to the trash). In spite of my malathion spraying activities a couple weeks ago, the highest population insect in the back yard right now remains the mosquito. Surprisingly though, we haven't seen or heard a single cicada -- they must love Centreville and points south too much to move north.

On Saturday afternoon, we met up with Anna, Ben, and Erin, and their six offspring at Frying Pan Park, which was full of baby farm animals. We then had dinner at Red Robin until we, ourselves, were full of baby farm animals. Saturday night was game night at Erin and Jon's in Gainesville, which (much like Cascades and Sterling) is the place that Manassas residents say they live when they don't want to be associated with the commoners in Manassas.

I also rewrote the back-end of the URI! Zone to use Spring JDBC and the latest version of Spring MVC on Friday night, so please complain if something isn't working as expected.
