Update on the faceplate: bought a new one on eBay. It works great. I now lock all doors all the time.
Here's what's going on in the past little while:
Adam visited Washington and brought back glasses! I know, right!? How weird. His eyes are vertically misaligned, so his left eye is straining to align the two images both eyes give the brain to blend into one.
Our bookshelf totally died yesterday - Adam, bless his heart, was putting away his books from homework on the shelf for perhaps the 5th time ever, and the whole thing comes crashing down. This is a cool picture showing not only the new glasses, but the bookcase carnage. We decided, after a few trips to local furniture stores, to hold off on a new shelf. Adam and I are moving in two months, so we just boxed up the books and officially started packing to move about a mile down the road. I really wish we had the skills/space to create our own bookcase - but alas, living in apartments have their drawbacks.
Working at REI has been fun - but working 50-60 hour weeks have been, well, tiring. Having bonus money is great, and once the familiarity of summer camp sets in at the science center, all will be well.
Neko is enjoying the wildlife outside - the bunnies, deer, raccoons, ducks, and birds at the feeder keep him very entertained. This is from the last snow flurry we got in March, was it? (ps... you'll need the volume up for this one - it's the reason the video is cute : )
