		<title>Dallas airport could stand to assist new mothers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am typing this from the airplane as I return to Seattle from San Antonio (after a stop in Dallas). I have had negative experiences in the past with Dallas’ airport, but I figured that a stop there was better than having to transfer to another plane. Dallas did not fail to incite my frustration, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Not getting the Super Bowl commercials&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, I should say that I &#8220;get&#8221; the Super Bowl commercials in that I understand why they are supposed to be funny. The problem is &#8211; they just aren&#8217;t. Or, at least as my Facebook status update stated just after the Super Bowl this year, I must not be the target audience of Budweiser or [...]]]></description>

		<title>New National Parks documentary well worth watching</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ken Burns has to be my favorite documentary film maker at this point, and I say that having never seen his well-known piece on the Civil War. Gabriel was born just as Burns’s World War II film, The War, was being shown on PBS. As we endured many throughout-the-night feedings during that newborn period, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Caroline joins our family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We welcomed the newest member of our family, Caroline Erin Dodds, on Friday, September 25, 2009 at 3:43am. She weighed 7lb10.5oz, and measured 18.5” long (and arrived complete with dark red hair)! She is a sweet, wonderful addition to the Dodds household, and we are delighted that she is finally here.

		<title>Senator Joe Wilson makes himself known to the country</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As Evan and I watched President Obama’s speech to Congress tonight regarding his healthcare plan, an interesting point arrived during which Obama claimed his plan did not provide federal coverage for illegal immigrants. Suddenly, this shout from the audience of “You lie!!” erupted. We looked at each other and had to spend a few seconds, [...]]]></description>

		<title>What have I been doing for the past few months?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have neglected my blog since the end of June, and I confess – I have missed it. The major highlights of this period of time have included:

Experiencing Gabriel’s second birthday and watching him grow into his newly acquired “two year old” title. The language acquisition from week to week is astounding, and now he [...]]]></description>

		<title>The tub now drains!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[…and I did not have to use Drain-O or another toxic chemical formula to do it. Check this out.
The water had been draining more slowly by the day, troubling me as I faced the decision: living near Puget Sound, home to whales, salmon, and other amazing wildlife, did I really feel right about pouring toxic [...]]]></description>

		<title>True Green Home</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just finished the brief book/monograph, True Green Home: 100 Inspirational Ideas for Creating a Green Environment at Home. It included some interesting points about how to conserve environmental resources (ie, energy, water) at home in daily life. Some points I had not previously considered:

The concept of “gray water” and reusing it around the home. [...]]]></description>

		<title>I graduated from residency!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night, I graduated from the University of Washington’s neurology residency program. After four years of being on call, running back and forth from the ICU to the ER, giving talks, and honestly – having fun (did I just say that?) – residency is over. Well, unless one includes working next week and taking three [...]]]></description>

		<title>My latest beef with US Air</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having lived near Charlotte, NC for many years prior to becoming a Pacific Northwesterner, I flew on US Air flights not infrequently. Evan was even one of their preferred (I don’t recall the specific title) Dividend Miles customers because he flew with them so frequently on business trips out of Charlotte. When Gabriel and I [...]]]></description>
