Mmm, I want to be able to go get those pies, Jessica. Those look like YUM. Also, I want other breakfast options close by other than doughnuts (delicious wonderful doughnuts they are, but...I want protein) or $7.50 crepes (delicious crepes. But expensive). Where is my cheap protein?? For lo, I am lazy, and unable to even order my coffee before I have drunk my coffee, in the morning. Much less MAKE my breakfast.
[edit: please note, I am a lazy urban mofo, and by nearby, I mean like, within three blocks. but that is why I pay the big bucks for my apartment, to live urban, right? maybe this summer when teh fancy new condos open up....vivace is moving closer...that's exciting...]
The Phoenix came up in a meeting and I was all "My friend's thing is the arm!" Of course, now they believe me because I have a picture of me and the earthbound rover on my cube wall. One advantage of working in this business is that everyone geeks out over stuff like that. Even as it is everyday business to us. I say "My dad manages the Sloan site." and there is a chorus of oooohs and I get peppered with questions. And my dad goes "my daughter works for [y'all know]" and half the time, they've interacted with me.
Still think that SDSS should raise money by taking all the drilled discs (for the survey, they drilled holed in a circular plate, each representing an object in the sky they wanted a spectra of. Then threaded fibro-o cables into the holes, observed, catching each object's spectrum) and turning them into coffee tables. Which reminds me, I should see if I can convince my dad to give me one. I already have an in on getting duplicate extra palomar survey plates (glass photographic sheets) that I'd love to frame up and display.
Hrm, yes, I'm a geek.
I've plans for laundry, a goodwill run, attacking one bedroom closet disaster and possibly an IKEA trip for bolster pillows for the new futon. I like the covering on the current pillows. How I'll find a cover fabric for the whole mattress that coordinates is beyond me.
I totally name-drop Lori all the time.
oh, you geeky people are so cute with your geekiness.
I'm trying to think of a 100 ways to be mellow and NONE are working for me. They've killed my relaxing weekend.
non related....picspam on the bottle.
ha! Thanks, Sean. That's one of our favorite onesies.
Weekend plans: Brunch with Perkins! And Lisah and many other choice Buffistae.
Sunday: baseball practice.
Monday: New temp job that will last for two months until I start the new book and which will be a pain for commuting purposes.
God, he's gotten big!
I love the Gardens. It's just so awesome. Funny thing, I remember feeding him his bottle while wandering through the Japanese gardens almost 9 months ago. I love this one : [link]
