Oh man. I had another evening of pacing around the house last night waiting for my blog to stop forbidding me to enter. That was a weird error screen. VERBOTEN! But, it’s much better now. Hopefully it will stay that way.
Yesterday was a big day. We celebrated my co-worker, Ada’s, last office birthday ever. Once our office closes at the end of April, she’s officially retired.
Those are sparklers on the cake. She was unable to blow them out, but she did try. I brought my mini-polaroid maker in for this most auspicious occasion. Here’s the perfect polaroid photo for Ada to keep forever.
