12 of 12 for February 2010
Sunday, February 14th, 2010Every twelfth of the month, I compile twelve pictures of my day for my version of an internet practice known as 12 of 12.
This month’s set was kind of mundane, so I’ve spiced up the descriptions with hyperlinks.
I still haven’t upgraded my WordPress, so comments don’t work unless you delete the gobbledygook from the end of the address that they point to. If that makes no sense and you’d still like to comment, feel free to comment on a photo’s Flickr page, or on my FaceBook page.
I took a picture of our front door in all its ugliness to serve as a before for next month’s after. (Please disregard the garlands—we like the lights at night.)
I followed Tweety through most of my commute. This is the lighter side of Tweety, and it will be my first entry into my friend sgazzetti’s Flicker group Tweety Light and Dark.
My French II class, taking a vocab quiz. A lot less fun than what they were doing last month.
While I was posting the announcements, the district IT guy was solving a problem with the wireless nodes in the building. During our chat he turned me on to the WiFiFoFum app for my new (on-loan) iPod Touch.
7th period outside my cubicle. On my screen is this prototype I recently received of the Data Dashboard, coming soon to our school (in a revised form).
When I don’t make it to the gym in the morning, I drag myself there in the afternoon. (One of these days I’ll look like the dude in the picture.)
Passing through Meredith. The Fishing Derby was a couple of weeks ago.
My wine-rep wife has a huge territory, but oftentimes on Fridays she does a tasting at our local neighborhood grocery store.
The dogs were most excited when she got home. (That’s Mike Haddad in the reflection.)
Why the cone, you ask? Well, because my little buddy chose to swallow another chunk of rubber big enough to get stuck in his small intestine. Again.
Crushed pistachio and brown-sugar encrusted pork tenderloin over carrot-parsnip purée, topped with a sauteed onion and golden raisin sauce. Pretty darned amazing. Have I mentioned how lucky I am?
I know it was no Beijing, but I still really liked portions of the Olympics opening ceremony.
My favorite part was this boy flying to a reflective rendition of Joni Mitchell’s Both Sides Now. I felt like he was reenacting one of my dreams.
If anyone has a link to the video of that portion, please let me know.
