So I've just been taking some random pictures on my phone.  Mainly I take pictures of things so I can send them in text messages to people to show them what I'm seeing or doing.  What I'm trying to say is I have a lot of pictures in my phone.  So I thought I'd share some of the pictures that I have so you can see what I've been up to!  Because I know you care about my life.  Mainly because I'm telling myself that someone does and will find these pictures interesting too ;)  

Hey at least I included pictures.  I could have just written about my life.  And put you all to sleep.  Let's see, my life goes something like:

Wake up late

Get out the door to go to work

Get to work

Look at the computer

Check the weather

Start some work

Make some tea

Do more work

Eat breakfast

Do more work

Oh wait sorry, this isn't a post about my day at work.

On to pictures!

Well maybe I'll start with a few pictures from work.  Since I don't stare at a computer all day.  Just in case you were worried.

This is an air conditioning unit.  This one is in a computer room.  Part of my job is sizing these units.  Exciting I know (hint: sarcasm).  But I do enjoy my job, I find it interesting.

 

This picture is a little hard to see, but that is the school across the street from my office that is being renovated over the summer.  The school isn't important.  What is important is the temporary power pole in the middle of the picture.  the string looking thing on the top right are the wires connecting it to the main power poles lining the street.  The only reason this is at all interesting and the only reason I'm talking about it is because a car got in an accident and ran into this flimsy little temporary pole knocking out power to my building so I had a snow day in the middle of the summer last two weeks ago!  It was a very nice and needed break.

 This is our first blooming sunflower of the summer.  It's pretty.

A friend posted this on facebook.  I thought it was incredibly amusing :D

This is a fabric swatch that my mom is holding.  We're taking a picture of it's name so we can remember it when we go back.  We're re-doing their bathroom and bedroom this year.  The bathroom wall color is this color so this fabric would be incorporated as a border on the curtains in the bedroom.  Because you can't have green curtains next to green walls.  Just a friendly tip from your resident interior designer.  You're welcome.

And these?  These gorgeous babies?  These absolutely gorgeous, drop dead amazingly spectacular earrings?  Yeah they're mine.  And I've totally already worn them to a friends birthday party this weekend.  They're absolutely perfect for me and I'm in love :)

Right now I'm watching the Olympics.  How you say?  They did end on Sunday and I almost cried.  I did tear up, no kidding.  I really, really, REALLY enjoyed watching the Olympic this year.  I watched them as soon as I got home from work, I stayed up late to watch prime time at night, the tv was on constantly every day of the weekend.  And  NBC is reshowing the swimming and track and gymnastics events all this week.  It's easing my withdrawal.  A little.  I still miss them.
