some stuff

I thought I might post a few recent pics, get caught up a little bit.

The flooring project is on hold temporarily, until the "holidays" are over. That way I can venture out in public to get supplies, with no fear of crossing paths with those overcome with shopping frenzy.

I did have to do some yard cleanup:

fallduty

I ended up with about 11-12 bags of leaves from my little yard. Quite amazing.

Got that done in time to fly off to NYC for some Thanksgiving revelry. Not much sightseeing, but some good quality time at Transplant's place. Saw the Brooklyn Bridge up close:

Pretty amazing really. Especially for a nerd engineer. NYC is full of such engineering marvels, for me the underground infrastructure (subway, sewers, water systems, etc) really boggle the mind.

At the south tip of Manhattan, we saw this guy in the park:

turkey

A turkey wandering amongst the pigeons. We figured, since it was the day after Thanksgiving, that this guy had escaped and was doing his best to hide out in the middle of the city. "I'm a pigeon, I swear."

Since I've been back, I've just been getting back into the swing of things, I've even recovered my work motivation, and look forward to staying late and working weekends for a while. Sick I know.

I had to restock the food supply, so I went over the the local Costco and picked up some wonderful beef.

meat

Nothing like some all-american beef. These ribeye steaks should hold me for a while......

Until next time....

You've been a busy guy. Glad to hear that you don't mind going to work again!

And I'm REALLY jealous of the beef.

Really.
