Dance Moves

Waiting on the train from Montreal -- are transit schedules nothing but educated wish lists? -- Nathan passes the times with some dance moves.

Lunch

Walked into the building at lunchtime with these. I only had the cat food bag to remind me that I need to buy more, and having done so, was about to throw it away. Still made the helpdesk guys double-take.

Unwanted Hat

I think someone tried to throw it away on Monday because it was in front of our pile of trash in the morning. But because Monday was a recycling-only day, the garbage men wouldn't take it. The hat has been blowing back and forth on and off the street since then, as helpful people put it back on our lawn.

Victory

Every McDonald's ice cream is a victory that he's earned.

Smoke/ CO Detector

So the smoke detector in the unfinished side of the basement started chirping, and that got me looking at the rest of the smoke detectors. They say the lifespan of these things is five or six years, but who thinks of them that often? looking at the date of the "master" one above, it is clear that it is expired one way or another. So, off to Home Depot to buy three more (they are all chained together somehow) at $60 each. At least these ones "claim" to have a ten year life span, so I've put a big label on the front of them with the May 2026 replace-by date on them so we are less likely to forget.

On Hold

Playing with toys while trying to prevent the hold music from making me kill somebody.
