Saturday, 9 Jun -- New boots

Got a new pair of boots on sale at K-Mart today. I've always wanted ankle boots, and the fact that these zip up make it easier to put on, despite the boots not being a wide size.

Friday, 8 Jun -- Root beer

Here's the 16-ounce can of root beer I plan to enjoy this weekend, with pizza :-9 It's a brand I've never had before, but I've had a taste and it's pretty delicious!

Giant peace lily in the Oaks Mall near work. I had no idea they could get that big!

Wednesday, 6 Jun -- No not park?

Our parking lot at work gets filled up full sometimes, esp since I work in the building that hosts most of the training rooms. So the days when lots of big classes get scheduled, are the days when the rest of us have trouble finding parking. Signs like these were posted in the parking lot to deter illegal parking. Except... read carefully and notice what the second red line says. Hmmm... wonder if these signs were discounted on account of the typo? ;-)

Tuesday, 5 Jun -- Squirrel

Here's a shot of a squirrel sniffing around the grass in our backyard for some food. We see quite a few of the large brown critters in our yard, quite frequently. Can't really see it on this one, but most of them are brown with a white circle around their necks-- priest squirrels? Or white-collar squirrels?

Monday, 4 Jun -- Sleeping mustached Todd

Todd sleeping peacefully. Above his lip is some sort of strange infection (probably fungal?) that developed this morning. Makes him look like Charlie Chaplin :-D

Some sidewalk art created by kids in our apartment complex, on the sidewalk leading to the building where we live.

Saturday, 2 Jun -- Blue screen of death

It is very rare that you get the "blue screen of death" on Windows XP. Me, with my "reverse Midas touch" when it comes to computers, managed to pull it off TWICE today. You can click on the image to get the larger sized version and read what the screen actually said on my Dell laptop.

Friday, 1 Jun -- Achoo! inducing plants

When I was little, I used to think these weeds weren't weeds, I liked the pretty yellow flowers of the plant. It was only later in life, post-Army, that I realized that this was amongst the plants that release pollen and trigger my hay fever every spring.
