Further Adventures of the Birthday Box

The Birthday Box did not make it to the post office yesterday, so at the end of the work day, it came home with me.

Sorting the mail

Checking on the hamsters

(but only playing with Garfield since Trevor bites)

Curling up on the couch with a box of extra soft tissues

Crawling into bed with Bombón

As of right now, the birthday box is en route to California, thanks to the friendly people at the United States Postal Service!

The Birthday Box

My BFF is supposed to have a milestone birthday today, but she swears that May 13th is not on the calendar this year. That means that my birthday box for her is not late until June... but being a good friend, I can at least get it in the mail on her unacknowledged birthday. To that end, the birthday box came to work with me today and will go to the post office at lunch to be sent on its merry way to California!

Star Trek

The new movie comes out today, a prequel to TOS (the original series for all of you non-Trekkers). So here is Captain Kirk in my favorite episode from that series, The Trouble with Tribbles.

Weekend in the Woods

My wonderful parents helped me finance a women's retreat through my church as an early birthday present. It was an extremely peaceful weekend that gave me a lot of time to reflect on where I am and where I am going with my life. And the scenery? See for yourself...

First Birthday

It's Hobbies and Hammies' first birthday! Yay!

Would you like a piece of cake?

This Week...

This week has been brought to you by caffeine.

Is it naptime yet?

Little Braves

Opening day for the new Gwinnett Braves baseball team in their brand new ballpark was this past Friday, and JustJulie was able to scrounge up some tix to the sold out game!



I want the job of the guy in red who just sits there throughout the game... I'm not sure exactly what he does, but he has a super awesome seat!

Thanks for finding us tickets, JustJulie!
