Cute? CUTE!? If you describe Bay12/DFC cute than you're already beyond saving!

But, then again it IS DFC  8)

Spent some time with the grandparents recently, helping out around the house. Being reminded of how much I picked up from them.


Grandma is super-fastidious, adores opera and theater, and always plans things out meticulously. She's still as (if not more) productive than I am, even in her late 80s. And is equally stubborn and independent; she practically swatted me away when I was doing the dishes, and insisted on helping while I cleaned up the exterior of the house prior to painting (I wasn't about to let her climb the ladder, though :I). And apparently, she too had a pretty rough and restless period of her life during her 20s and 30s, where she left behind her farming home, and tried to discover what she wanted to do with her life. She roamed around the Midwest, working in factories and offices, roomed with old friends or at the YWCA, even traveled to California to work card tables at a nightclub for a while during the 50s. All that, before coming back to the Midwest to get into local politics, and do the family thing.

Grandpa has his collection of musical instruments from around the world (including that tiny electric organ in the background), which he wrote and sang hokey, terrible, but heartfelt songs on. And then there is his lifelong love of logic puzzles, bad jokes, storytelling, and history, the basement workshop where he fiddled with electronics and machining projects, and the gardens where he grew his own produce out back. Very much a Renaissance Man. When people ask about his military service, he would say he'd been a soldier during the end of World War II... but what he won't tell them is that he signed up to use his electrical engineering and radio know-how to help rebuild the damage done to Japan and the Pacific Islands after the war. And when it came to advice, he's always been firm but understanding, diplomatic, and good at seeking compromises. The more I learn about him, the more I realize he was an inspiration to me.

Understood, and acknowledged.

What is it she's holding?

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

Cell phone. That was a pretty candid picture... I was teaching her how to use her iPad up until she got the call. And she always looks kinda grumpy like that, unless she knows she's in a picture. :P

Hair, lips, and dat browline~

You look like a young old-movie star, a la 1950s Peter O'Toole or Humphrey Bogart.

I can live with that.

Now to get a fedora and trench-coat, and perhaps a smoking habit.

Spoiler: Desks! (click to show/hide)

This was soon after unpacking at the new house, before my doodads got sorted into their places. I apologize for the infinite recursion, but my camera was borked, so I used a webcam and screenshotted it.

Hey, you got one of those fancy desks that pulls out for the keyboard, epic win. Man I used to have one of those, whatever happened to it? Also, in general, an epic desk. There's just something about a desk packed to the brim with stuff and a PC that seems so heart-warming, isnt there?

Yeah, I inherited it from my granduncle and namesake, and have kept it with me for most of my On-My-Own life. For every move, I've had to break it down into boards and stuff it into my tiny little car.

It almost always has pencils and graph and lined paper all over it, a filing cabinet full of notes and some documents, and so on. I want to install little light fixtures in the overhead shelving area too, so I can read without having a bright light on. I very much <3 this desk.
