This is the sort of thing I get up to when a silly joke idea gets stuck in my head and won’t go away.

All The Ducks
-
Let sleeping ducks something-or-other.
We went to the Hillsboro public library for an all-staff photo shoot. I took a picture, too:
These ducks were still asleep, though. I was so jealous…

This is what happens when I have this kind of toy.
See, the moment I realized that I have two devices with front-facing cameras you just know what came next…
This is the sort of thing which guarantees that I will never be one of the cool kids. Oh well.

Don’t don’t fence fence me me in in
I took the camera to Advance Camera out in Beaverton for a cleaning a couple weeks ago, and now that it’s back I’ve decided to take some pictures that include some nice blue sky, since I no longer have to worry about “Photoshopping” away the smudges that kept showing up.
What I want to know is, who looks at a fenced in area and says, “You know what? That needs to be fenced in.”
(It’s probably because they don’t want horses jumping out and running into the new road alongside the Washington County Fairgrounds. But why should I let a good, practical answer get in the way of a joke?)

Toys Will Be Toys
Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
I dare you to find another photograph featuring a Zentraedi Officer’s Pod, a cast-iron “rubber” duck, and a black LEGO minifig.
Context will arrive in the form of Thursday’s Quacked Panes comic.

Monthly Posting?
I swear to you, my intentions did not include ending up making only one post per month.
Say! I looked at the lava dome of a volcano a couple of weeks ago! See? I even took Explorer Duck along with! Excitement! Explorer Duck has since gone back home to her owner back in Pennsylvania, as my house was her final stop in the worldwide tour.
My daughter turns 18 on Monday. I guess I may have to stop calling them my “kids” now, though they’ll always be my “rugrats,” which admittedly makes no sense to anyone but myself. So be it; I’m a known weirdo anyway.
So far, the new webserver is working beautifully. It’s faster, it’s running a much newer Linux OS than the old one, and most importantly it costs $40 less per month. I should’ve done this years ago.
The job is… crazy. We just added three new clients and two new Kaseya management add-ons, so I’m never bored. Then again, I’m also never going to get caught up. Sigh.
My personal life is largely drama-free, and I count that as a very good thing. I get plenty enough excitement from my job and the day-to-day challenges of life without adding interpersonal conflicts, you know?
Once I get my head a bit more above water, maybe I’ll start looking at ways to spruce things up around here. For now… I’m just hanging in there as best I can.
