Today is an in the office day. I shortened my morning exercise routine by 15 minutes because I was worried I was going to be late. Now here I am, all set to leave… and I’m 15 minutes early. Good planning there, Mr Chuckles. Ugh
Anyway, here’s today’s photo a day. It’s my old Les Paul’s poker chip. Enjoy!
I made it to the Post Office this morning before work. My five rolls of film that are ready to develop are on their way West, heading to the lab. I won’t start feeling all giddy and excited until I get a notification saying the package has arrived. Then I’ll start refreshing my order status all day long, waiting for word that the scans are done.
Nerd boy over here is about to get nerdy.
Here’s the clock from downtown. Heading South toward the post office:
And here’s the clock again, this time heading North toward home:
Finally, today’s photo a day photo submission is this view from behind the post office parking lot. Somewhere I have pictures of this gazebo that aren’t through the trees from a nearby parking lot. Maybe I’ll dig one out and share it. Later.
Welcome to Monday morning, friends and neighbors and readers and only friends… that’s a bit of a mixed metaphore/movie reference there, huh?
I’m working in the office today and I am ready to go but it’s too early so I am writing a post. Is that a little too inside baseball? Is that a little too much of how the sausage is made?
I’m in a fuckin’ weird mood this morning. Sorry. The Bruins season starts tomorrow. It probably has something to do with today being weird.
Anyway. I need a new guitar project. I’ve got a couple of things that were put on pause that I should probably get back to. We’ll see.
Robin has the right idea. Nap time.
Happy vehicle inspection day. I’m only three months late. Sorry.
The best part of coming home from the office tonight (as far as work is concerned) is that I know I can work from home for the next two days.
Also, I get to see the cats.
Yesterday I started listening to every Rush record I own on vinyl, in release order. I have everything up to 1987, after which they stopped releasing their music on vinyl (in large quantities at least). I have a couple of 21st century releases from when vinyl became a thing again. I’m in the office today so I won’t be playing that game again until tomorrow. I did take some Hipstamatic Shake to Shuffle style pics while I was packing up my laptop. Just because.
I’m not one of those people who thinks that vinyl is some magical thing. I just like the vibe. I also like having my father’s record player in my work from home space. It’s nice. I’ll start the Rush thing over again tomorrow at the start of the work day. It’s like having a big playlist from a streaming service except that I have to keep flipping the records.
Robin sacks out on the afghan my father’s mother made.
It’s literally the only thing I have that came from my grandmother. It pleases me that Robin is enjoying it in her lazy cat kinda way.
