The company I work for, they’re opening a proper office in Austin. I’m still going to work from home. Been doing it over 10 years, I see no reason to stop, especially since my home office is better set up and equiped for the requirements of my job.
However, I did discover the new office isn’t too far from GT Distributors.
“Honey…. I need to uh… go to the office (yeah, that’s it).” 🙂
You know it’s cold when you embrace the warmth coming through your laptop’s keyboard as a way to thaw your fingers.
Heh heh.
Ah…. Christmas morning.
The sounds of children tearing into wrapping paper as they open their gifts.
That’s the easy part.
The hard part is Dad having to tear through all the packaging to actually extract the toy. 🙂
I am so thankful for my Leatherman Wave. Knives for cutting out packaging. Pliers and wire cutters for removing those !*%@ing twist tie-downs. Screwdrivers to open and close battery compartments.
For my Leatherman Wave, I am thankful. 🙂
Merry Christmas, y’all.
Oldest also received a deer call in his Christmas stocking from Grandpa.
He’s sitting at the back door making some doe sounds, seeing if he can get a buck to wander into the backyard area.
Youngest is sitting next to his brother adding in his own calls like…. “She’s available!!!”
Heh heh. 🙂
Cartoon Network was tuned in on the TV.
A “commercial” comes on… one of those spots that has a montage of the network’s original shows and characters to promote the network itself. And then… the soundtrack.
Blitzkrieg Bop, by The Ramones
I don’t know what to make of it.
The Ramones being used as the bed music for a commercial to promote Time-Warner’s products.
Something just doesn’t seem right about that.
On the flip side, it should expose a new generation to The Ramones, which is cool.
But part of me wonders what people would think if instead we told them to beat on the(ir) brat with a baseball bat. 😉
Miniatur Wunderland has been around for a while, but someone sent some pictures of the place to me today and I went and looked at it again. The place is simply amazing.
Watch this “drive through”. If it wasn’t for the occasional giant showing up in the background, you’d swear you were on a real train ride.
And check out this water-way shot
I’ve always found miniature trains fascinating. Many times I’ve wanted to get into it, but I simply don’t have the space to do it. It’s a bit of engineering, a bit of art, and you have to just remember to have a child-like wonder about the world to really enjoy it.
LEGO and guns together. Talk about gun geek joy.
Cute.
