Elm Street

It's been awhile since I've updated, so I figured I'd share a few pictures and give some quick status about my life. Sophie and I are pretty much all settled into our cute little apartment now.  Its a 2 bedroom (bedroom + office)... there's a shot of the bedroom.  Sophie brought her cat to live with us, he's about 2 years old now, and he likes the office closet. 

   

The next shot is of my with a stupid blue contact in... I say "stupid" because it was a HUGE pain to put in, never again... I now hate contacts. Lastly, a picture of me comforting my brother's adorable dog/baby after he slipped and bumped his head.

sopie is cool

can I try?

The rest of the vacation pictures can wait... this thing looks soo fun. I'd wanna try it headfirst (handstand on a trap door? yes, please)



This one is pretty awesome too... I'd have to try it a bit slower first, or at least see a few people survive. Looks like the impacts on takeoff & landing could both really hurt.

driving

Sophie and I are safely in Shelby, NC now. My cousins Josh and Jeff are both happily married! The drive was good... long but good. It was 50 and rainy when we left, and when we arrived it was 75 and beautiful (even at 11:30pm). More on this later, Sophie just took off for the pool, so I must hurry to catch up!

EMERGENCY MONSTER ASSAULT

I'm has'ing vacation tomorrow through next Friday... Sophie and I are driving to Shelby, North Carolina tomorrow morning, leaving before dawn. Wee! Presently, I'm still trying to finish up my projects at work, or at least get them presentable for anyone else to check out of the repository while I'm gone. I had a bit of a late night last night, so I had to come up with an extra-awesomely ridiculous beverage for the mid-to-late-afternoon kick today. Fantastic.

gettin' jacked!

I forgot to bring the obligatory armful of Monster Khaos 24oz'ers to work today, and was feeling pretty tired by the mid-afternoon. Not wanting to drink the lukewarm coffee from that morning, Jason and I decided to try something crazy... to our knowledge it hadn't been attempted before, but that is precisely why we thought it just might work.

I've been kind enough to generate equations that approximate our findings... feel free to use them whenever you have an afternoon energy crisis.
