Here are some pictures from yesterday, hopefully I’ll go back soon and backfill the last couple years on my picture server.

Stuff it

I’ve been suffering from a case of the head cruds for the last week and am ready to be done with it. It was a gift from the children. I’m glad they think of me when they feel like giving. KT and I have been otherwise busy these days, so much so that I clearly haven’t put much time into writing any of it down so that I can remember it for more than a week.

In the meantime while I collect myself I give you this:

a few things

KT and the kids are up in Omaha with Grandma Sarah, leaving me to a day of productive toil. The day started with a quick run followed my some lawn mowing. Then inside to install quarter-round in my bedroom so that the spiders have a harder time backpacking from the basement to my bedroom. Once the cursing and installation was complete I had a quick lunch and clean up and then cracked open the La Pavoni Europiccola that I picked up off of ebay. That machine had seen better days so between soaking components and gasket replacement I worked on it for about five hours. Then, had some ill-advised evening shots to test function. All systems are go and don’t be surprised if I pop back up here later in case I can’t fall to sleep.

Her: Are you going to work out today?
Me: No, I’m too full.
Me: Give me some of those cheetos

Drink a Latte

There’s a new coffee shop across the street from my office on 39th and Rainbow called Drink a Latte. Really nice and helpful baristas. The first guy had been there just three weeks and overextracted the shot a little and I mentioned it when he asked me, so another guy who might have been the manager or owner made another and had me compare, and it was really good! I don’t know what kind of espresso they used, it may have been “Late Night” or some such, but I couldn’t find anything about it online so I could be wrong. Regardless, really nice place and a really nice shot. Maybe I’ll make this a weekly thing since the shot was dirt cheap and discounted for KU folks.
