Day 130

Sat around, did little of anything, conquered a solar system, shot some Kirby looking dudes. Decent day overall.

Picture: When you see it...

Background: ...it'll see you! The 'rents put faces on trees a few years back. They told me a week or two ago that they were actually growing into the trees themselves. So in a few years they might even be gone, with just a face imprint left. Creepy to think about, isn't it? But they look pretty cool, especially from a distance like this.

Day 129

For some reason I searched the number 129 to see if it was prime (it's not, it's apparently semiprime), and it's actually the sum of the first ten primes. It's even a happy number! Seriously, where do mathematicians come up with this stuff.

Picture: Sorry, flower-namer, I actually know this one!

Background: It's a marigold! Emphasis on the "gold". Then again, it does look merry. This is probably one of half a dozen flowers I can name by sight. I took this (along with what will probably be the next few days' worth of pictures) on Saturday after working outside for a bit.

For today, I went to work for my brother that's closest in age to me. He does catering around here, and today's job was a 400 person deal. I haven't gotten up at 6 in the morning in quite awhile, and I hope I don't have to until July when I work for him next.

Day 128

2^7

Picture: Who are these folks?

Background: Aunt + Her Husband + their two boys were in Georgia this weekend, so lunch was had with the whole family. I didn't really get a good picture of anybody, but here's one. The guy turned around is my uncle, and those are my cousins. My Uncle kind of looks like the band director at Tech with that shirt on, except taller. Because, you know, everybody's taller than...

Anyway, lots of driving too. I also got a new book that I'll have to blab to you all about, since the author is supposedly a mix of Douglas Adams and Stephen King. So it sounds good already.
