I’ve been working on this one through several meetings (phase 1 and phase 2). We had a two hour presentation this afternoon, and I think I’m just about out of room.

We also had a carry-in meeting-slash-party for a coworker’s 10th anniversary. I may have mentioned that I’m not a big fan of the office carry-in? I don’t know why they make me cranky, but they do. And the worst part is that there are always leftovers, and the leftovers always get stuck on a book truck right behind my cubicle. You know, where the phone is. Because the only thing more irritating than having to answer and/or listen to everyone’s phone calls is being distracted by an endless parade of people bellying up to the snack bar.

Flickr seems to be having Firefox-related issues. When I try to upload new photos in Firefox, they do not appear. Actually, make that any new photos from anyone. I get a blank square and the page tries to load indefinitely. It works just fine in Opera, Netscape, and Maxthon/IE, though. Hrmf.

Anyway, this is a reworking of a photo I took a year and a half ago. The original, and some others I took of the same building, can be found here. The carriage-house-slash-garage is behind my mom’s house. It was about to fall down, but she had it re-roofed and has been working on it. These are all “before” pictures. I don’t have any “after” pictures because it’s a work in progress, and, well, “after” shots of once crumbling heaps of junk are BORING.
