Today's Lunch

Today's lunch consisted of a Boca Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan burger on a flat bread bun. Coupled with Broccoli slaw and Trader Joe's Champagne Pear Vinaigrette with Strawberries. You could chop up the strawberries and put it in the slaw, it complimented the Vinaigrette so well. - The boca burger was dry as usual, I prefer Morning Star veggie burgers, but I continue to give Boca a try.

October 20th: Spirit Day

In Honor of Tyler Clementi
On October 20th, 2010, we will wear purple in honor of the LGBT youth who have committed suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse in their homes and schools.PURPLE represents Spirit on the LGBTQ flag and that’s exactly what we’d like all of you to have with you: spirit. Please know that times will get better and that you will meet people who will love you and respect you for who you are, no matter your sexuality. We want to thank Brittany McMillan for creating this event!http://www.easternecho.com/index.php/m/article/2010/10/spirit_day_to_honor_recent_homosexual_suicide_victims

RIP: Tyler Clementi, Seth Walsh, Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase, Asher Brown, Cody J. Barker, Harrison Chase Brown, Caleb Nolt, Billy Lucas, Jeanine Blanchette, and Chantal Dube. Unknown deaths.

- I forgot to wear purple. I looked around the cube to see what I had to put into use. So here is what I ended up with.

Here is my coworker's purple creation. YAY for Love and support!

Only in the south

Found this at the Starbucks at Lavista Rd in Atlanta. Only in the south would you use the word Yank in reference to an verb vs. a noun.

Foos ball & The Broken Man Trophy

Here at the office we have a foos ball table. I personally think we're pretty good, like, we could probably place somewhere in a real tournament. But without question, we would definitely kick Joey, Chandler, and Monica's butt. Anywho. We have become so good, that it is rare that a team would not score any points. On the rare occasion that it would happen, the opposing team mates would have bragging rights for at least a week.

We have worn out many parts on the table, and when we were replacing a broken man one day someone said, we should make a broken man trophy to hang outside our cubes/offices. Grantbob came up with the plan, and I executed it. So I went to Michael's to get a plaque, stained it, and painted the broken man silver. Next Grantbob gorilla glued the broken man to the plaque. Finally we were able to hand over the trophy to the current trophy holders. It's really a trophy of shame, appropriately titled, The broken man trophy.



I would never mention any names as to who the current trophy holders are. And one is not in the office today, so once they return, I will take another pic of both pieces.

Here is our foos table.

Honda has a Boo Boo

My Honda got a boo-boo, so naturally it needs a band-aid. Maybe this will help.

Tony the Tiger?

I was riding into work this morning and saw a tiger on the road. While I was approaching it, I was like... what is on this person's helmet? Then I found a tail actually attached to the person's tail. Ya never know what you'll find in the ATL.

The Daily Audio Bible

I started listening to the DAB this year. I started a month or so late, so I am literally still catching up. This project is an amazing site put on by this guy named Brian. There is all kinds of information you can get off this site. There are people connecting through this site who are amazing. So if you're interested in hearing the Word of God read at any time of the day, check this site out. They also have worship playing 24-7. I totally encourage you to check it out.

Concert

I went to a concert last night at Eddie's Attic. I totally recommend going to a concert there. Wow! Great Venue!

Jennifer Knapp, Amy Courts, and Derek Webb. Love Them! I cannot wait to worship with them on day. This reminds me... I gotta practice. Wow.

I left encouraged, pumped, motivated. Basically on a music high. It was awesome.

I will eventually get a pic of the three of them on here, even if it was one I took myself from the show last night. Love was unable to go with me, but Lynne, Carla and Anna did. Wow. HOT! It was a much needed event. YAY!

ChickenPotPie Lovin

This past week I missed Church because I was sick. My friend Crys lovingly made me a Chicken Pot Pie to help me feel better. (Carla helped) It was possibly the best Chicken Pot Pie's I've ever eaten. It took me 2 days to eat it. I ate it for every meal until it was gone. Yes, even for breakfast. MMMM, Please Ma'am, may I have another.

I love my friends and I am so thankful for how awesome they are. Thanks Crys for comforting me during my sickness. God Bless you for that!

Artic Blast 2010

Pic taken at approx 7:20AM. I wish I were playing in it, but... aah, the joys of working as an adult. I hit two patches of Black Ice on the way to work which caused me to run 2 stop signs. At the bottom of my street is a nasty hill which always gathers ice. Praise God for safety.

The flowerbed has some beautiful snow, I hope it stays so I can take a pic of that when I get home later today.

Artic Blast 2010 was coined by the news before it was ever snowing according to Carla. So, hence the title. :-)

Also notice the hole in my mailbox. This past Saturday we had some kids hit (literally) the mailboxes of Shamrock Forrest. Good times. Aah the joys of home ownership. Good times.
