My cute desk lamp
« on: January 17, 2005, 11:36:32 PM »
It's amazing how things improve when you're feeling better. I finally cleared off my desk and got my new desk lamp out (following a crazy incident in which my old lamp was so top heavy that it just cracked in two one day--very strange). And I realized: I have the lamp from the Pixar openers! See it here.

I wonder if it will start hopping around on me. :)

Only if you get really sick again. Or start taking hallucinegenics.... drug things. Or drink my blood. Because I'm sure anyone will tell you that you'll start seeing things if you take a tap of my blood.

Staples registration needed, or something.

Those guys didn't hire me. So sad. Thought I did good in the interview as well, sigh.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Hmm, that's odd. I don't remember registering. But I had a $20 gift certificate from them, so perhaps I did sometime.

All it did was ask me for a zip code as to where the thing would be delivered had I decided to buy it, presumably. Unless it's another attempt at taking the cookies my comrades made for me.

Sad!  I want to see the lamp!  

Isn't it great to take joy in the little things?

it just asks me to enable cookies. But we won't go back into that again.

Well, if I could log into my gallery, I could pop the picture over there. But it's not letting me in again. This time it's not the Toshiba pinger or my firewall.

I think.

Stacer, you're reading lamp is really cute, but it doesn't look much like the Pixar lamp.

Dang. I was going on memory. But perhaps it's an updated version for the new century.  ;)

We had one that looked more like the Pixar lamp.

Well, we can *pretend* it looks like the pixar lamp, right?  

Especially if it starts hopping.

Rather than put up a new thread, I figured I'd just use this. I've finally scanned some pictures from the break, and thought some of you would get a kick out of a few of these. For example, I took this one after it snowed one day. I have no idea if the driver did it on purpose--it was just something I saw out my back window in the parking lot.

I have a few more pictures from Halloween weekend when I came out to Utah, so I reposted the folder.

Also, I took all of three pictures of people while I was out over New Year's. See them here.

Finally, just because I wanted to show you all what a big flirt my new nephew, Marshall, is, a few pictures from Christmas with my family.

Stacy, those first pictures of you with your nephew are *so* cute!
