Flying Books

Maybe it's the wishful librarian in me, or just the story lover, but this video makes me tear up every time I watch it. The interactive app is pretty great as well. I think the company who made it must be the most wonderful place ever to work!

I'm a model!

I had no idea, but K found proof.

Fan Fest

Giants Fan Fest was this past Saturday. It's amazing how beautiful the weather has been this year and last. Beautiful. Especially considering every time I've gone to a game (in the Summer mind you) it's been rather frigid.

The field of swarming people lined up top get autographs.

Swarming fans...and this year it was easier to get in than last year.

Beautiful weather, great times, plenty of walking. I was out as soon as I got home. Lovely day.

Big Win

I admit I didn't watch the super bowl this year - my thesis took priority. However, I did happen to win big in the office pool. For a long time I didn't participate in any of the almost constant activities that happen around here, but then some people started giving me a hard time. Now I do the bare minimum, which for the Superbowl meant giving up a dollar in change to write my name on one little square, in a complex process I really don't understand or care to understand.

It was quite a surprise to arrive at work this morning to find $20 on my chair. I'd won the 4th quarter prize. I don't know how, I'm hoping now when I'm asked to participate in office games I'll simply explain  since I won during the Superbowl I want to give someone else a chance.
