May 2005 Archives

So it was raining somethin' fierce when I got up this morning, and because of that and today being Friday, I decided to drive to work. Since I was no longer limited to just what I could schlepp down to the bus stop, I took my camera to work. Here are a few shots:

My desk.

My co-workers. Tim is in yellow, and Pat's the other one.

Our wing (3NW). It used to be the birthing ward.

By the way, "The Big Deek" or just "Deek" is what we call "Deaconess Medical Center". The one photo I didn't take was of the tiny bathroom in each office. Remember, this used to be a patient ward. Neat, huh?

So here I sit, editing down some photos and listening to Jakki's Rwandan music for her Intercultural Communications class. We just planted some honeysuckle Flo gave us on our recent trip to Seattle to see off Paul and Kristi. It was a great trip, we got to see lots of family and friends.

Here's some new pics to enjoy (click to open in a new window):

Mom trying on hats at the Genesee Renaissance Festival	Jakki and I messing about on my parents old hay rake	Tigger sleeping in Joyce's (Jakki's mum) Mother's Day present
Purple flowers at Manito Park	Jakki and the cactus	The Japanese garden at Manito
Me in the Lilac Garden	Everyone at Bob & Linda's	The gang at Shearwater (Paul & Kristi's boat and home)

In other news, work has been going great. I really like the people I work with, and I'm settling in fast. Taking the bus is proving to be OK as well, especially since I got a new laptop bag from Timbuk2. This weekend, Jakki and I are taking a break from it all and staying home for once. Maybe we'll BBQ some sort of critter.
