Photowall

I’ve complained already about the construction around where I work and how it has screwed up the already screwy parking problems around here. Yesterday, on top of my problems with technology, I wound up parked in one of the furthest parking structures from where I work, and with my normal outdoor route fenced off. On the other hand, the detour through the research buildings and the medical school took me past the rows of photos of past students. Since I wasn’t in any hurry on the way out, I decided to see if I could find the class of 1896, and the photo of my great grandfather…

We had takeaway Chinese food today. Ming Tree. One of my favorite local places. They’ve got a pair of huge fish tanks near their cash register and we spent our time waiting for food watching their three huge goldfish bob about in the freshwater tank.

This particular fishie isn’t from the restaurant though. It’s a resident of the home where my Grandma lives. We went caroling there the day after Christmas and I took a few pictures of the denizens of their tank afterward.

My bubbles!

Durable Snow

Sunday morning we had the first really good snow of the season. About three inches of nicely packable stuff.

Blood-Orange Wine Label…

I just had to go with a slightly modified version of “Vampiress” as the font for this one… Even if making it into wine has caused it to change to a paler shade, there’s just something inherently creepy about blood oranges.

Apple Wine Label!

Thanks to a slow work day and a longer-than-usual lunch, we’ve got a design for the apple wine!

This may not work if your browser can’t display .PNG files correctly, but here it is:

Plus this also gives me a chance to link to that grated magnum opiate, the HTML edition of the Principca Discordia. If you’re a bit behind on your Greek mythology, it’ll explain the whole golden apple and “kallisti” reference. Or not. It’s a fun read anyway.

Daytime Moonlight

Nothing too special about this picture except that it was taken at about noon.
