All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Laura, I'll be in Omaha the end of May/beginning of June.

I wish I was hardy enough to go out and take pictures in this weather. The lake looks amazing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's gotten warmer but the wind's picked up. I found myself wishing for long underwear on my walk home for the Heartland Cafe just now.

I just walked partway though all the ice chunks piled up near the shore: [link]

Can you tell the smooth stuff beyond the ice chunks is more ice?

Thanks. My glasses fogged up and I couldn't read my camera's LCD display.

I'm now at the office. Possibly because it's sushi day, I'm not gonna lie.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am beginning to see some progress on my desk. Not what I would have hoped for with half the day gone, but better than a slap in the face.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So, the meeting we were told we must attend, that they really wanted everyone to attend in person? That teleconferencing would be provided for those too far away to come in? Five telecommuters all waiting for a link , and finally five minutes before the meeting started we were told that there was, after all, no teleconferencing provided.

Okay, then.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I went out for sushi for lunch today. The fountain in front of the restaurant was completely iced up.

Nice pictures, tommyrot!
