You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Biyi and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this week. Yesterday I finally found the right present for her. We were visiting a local community arts centre that was showing some paintings by a Chinese-born artist (Chinese village scenes, mostly).The gift shop was selling some richly coloured glass pendants - purple, blue, red-and-gold and so on. I asked Biyi if any of them appealed to her, and she chose a triangular pendant, green and gold (depending on the light). At least most of it was, pushing out from one of the lower corners. The border of the opposite edge was all black.

"What do you like about that one?"
"It looks like a penguin!"
"I... well ok then!"

So now she is wearing a penguin pendant to celebrate ten years of Penguin marriage.

Been doing some lighting projects today. Replaced a florescent fixture in the basement with LED. Also added 3,200 lumens of goodness connected to a motion sensor in the garage finally giving it adequate lighting.

Tomorrow I'm planning to replace the belt and power steering pump on my car. It'll eat up a good amount of time, but doing it myself will save a small fortune.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Happy congratulations to Billy and BiYi!

Biyi and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this week.

I remember when this happened! Mazel tov!

ION, lavender macarons are not the tasty follow up to sushi with eel sauce as one might think. Probably should have put a palate cleanser in there somewhere.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Biyi and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this week.

Congratulations! It blows my mind that it's been 10 years and you have Ryan, who is not so little any more.

I had orange juice with sushi last night (the OJ was because I thought I might be getting Tim's cold), and that is not an awesome combo, either.

Our wings are not tired.

Congratulations to Biyi and billytea! Ten years. Wow! It seems like just recently, and forever, at the same time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I, OTOH, just ended a 20+ year relationship....with Citibank. They stopped having branches in MA some time ago, so it was a huge PITA. My new job has a credit union, so now I'm with them! Pretty exciting. But between getting a new credit card last weekend, and doing this, I have a lot of online accounts to update.
