Sunday Open Thread

Spring is here and you can actually tell! The sun is out but it’s windy as hell. Flowering tea sounded really nice so I decided to use my kettle for the first time, newest edition to my pot collection. Poured the hot water into the glass pot and the flower has bloomed nicely with refreshing green tea and jasmine.

Had a bunch of last minute “I forgot to get mom a present” shoppers. I can’t really complain much about work other than this was one of the few times where I’m glad I only worked 4 hours.

I don’t have to be in till 3pm tomorrow, so chances are I’ll be on for quite a bit today into tonight. Feels great to not be groggy.

Evening Open Thread

Another cool sunny day has passed. I mostly kept to myself today after work, screwing around in Gmod and had to fix SourceSDK. I learned how to attach a physics prop to a live NPC, the results were interesting. I also learned something else really really cool. So cool in fact that I don’t want to share it just yet.

Well, time to rest for the salt mines. Not sure how though considering I’ll be pissing away 3 pots of chai. I don’t have a weak bladder, I just over use it…

Great to see one of my picts, Vance Creek, in print!

Yays! I got this picture in the Pierce College Student Literary Magazine, SLAM!  Mine is the first photograph in the magazine, so that was an honor too!

And most of the other students that had submissions were art students or English students.  Didn’t see anyone from the accounting department there, imagine that lol!  So it was an interdepartmental experience today lol!

We had an hour-long event with some authors reading their poetry.  It was a fun time!

I also ran into a gal that I went to high school with, and she had two of her paintings in SLAM!  I said hi to her and had a nice chat and such, so that was fun!

I can see from the entries that did make it into the magazine that the judges are looking less for nature photos and more for ‘artistic’ sort of photographs (or is that artsy-fartsy?  Probably artsy-farty lol)

I might try submitting this photo of heather in the middle of the Puyallup Campus of Pierce College for next year’s SLAM:

Or perhaps not, we’ll see.  I might try taking a few pictures with the idea of submitting them, too,  since the next deadline is months away – Yay!!!!!  Or maybe not since I’m slack!!!! Wheeees!!!

Have funz everyone!!!!

Working in a group gives headaches!

Especially when they don’t listen to my correct answers and then continue to blabber on and on about more incorrect data!

This is why booze was created, one’s personal vacation from the headaches that await! Drink up meh hearties!!!
