Wednesday Open Thread: Tiny Hat Edition

San_San showed me how to make miniature hats by using pieces of empty paper towel rolls earlier this afternoon, some colorful yarn and a few cottonballs. Here’s a picture of the miniature hats that I made:

After getting done making the mini hats, I got outside and did some work in the backyard with Dad. I was dumping the yard waste along the fence next to the creek while he rakes it up and then shoveling them in the bucket until it’s full so that I can dump it out. Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of the dam filled with yard waste but we got most of it taken care of and we’ll do the rest of it hopefully tomorrow. 🙂

Open Thread!

Tuesday Evening Open Thread

There’s not a whole lot to report on tonight. San_San and I went to grab groceries from Fred Meyer this evening, and then we got home and went through the whole receipt to check for bought items before putting them away. I guess that shopping trip went really quick. 🙂

And for now for no apparent reason here’s this adorable photo of Morty resting on the wooden chair:

Sunday Garage Wood Work Open Thread

I’ve been doing some wood sawing in the garage lately with the help of my dad. He needed me to get this done so he can use the bandsaw to cut the pieces of wood into wooden arcs. I snapped a picture of them right here:

He’s gonna be using them to put together an outdoor decoration for a house owned by a friendly person whose friends with some friend of ours. Either way, it was a really good wood sawing workout. It helps me build stronger muscles. 🙂

First Open Thread of the Month

We had our friendly visitor coming over earlier this gray, rainy day afternoon. San_San made us some delicious meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner along with the salad that our guest made. I have a picture of it right here:

San_San also made some freshly baked apple custard pie for dessert last night. Unfortunately I don’t have a photo of the pie but it was super tasty and it sure was nice seeing our visiting guest. 🙂

Thursday Evening Open Thread

edders77 came over to our house for a visit this evening. San_San made us some barbecued chicken, sliced steak, coleslaw and corn for dinner:

It was deliciously good food, and San also made some chocolaty brownies for dessert. Everybody had a great time together and lived for another day. 🙂 We were chatting with Edders about Myst, the members who work on the Myst company and how he dipped his hands in the Hydrochloric acid while doing chemistry from awhile back. It was sure nice talking to him tonight. 😉

Anyway, I sold enough Steam trading cards and bought this nice War Paint and applied it on the regular Minigun:

My Starry Night Minigun

I also bought an Australium Gold paint from the market and used it on my Dangeresque shades:

Saturday Open Thread

It was a fairly decent day this evening. San_San and I went out apple picking yesterday at our friendly person’s yard from across the street, and San made us some delicious chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner. 🙂 She also made apple crisp for dessert. Here’s a picture of the apple crisp:

After eating dinner and dessert with my family I decided to play a bit of Poker Night at the Inventory, and I managed to get two TF2 items which are a badge and a gun after winning the Poker Night tournament:

Now I can go play Good Cop/Bad Cop in the TF2 world. 😛

Open Thread!

Sunday Afternoon Open Thread: Death to the Mafia

This day turned out to be fairly nice this afternoon. I decided to use my drawing tablet since I’ve been doing some more handwriting, and I drew this picture of a trio of mobsters committing suicide:

They usually go around and kill other people, but now they’re trying to do some extremely self-destructive disembowelment on themselves. 😛

Anyway, open thread!

Saturday Open Thread: Drunk and Disorderly

Just after 2 AM I looked out my window and saw police car lights down the street. I went outside and saw some drunk driver being interviewed and later arrested/hauled to jail. The way he was wobbling around there was no way the cop going to let him go. That and he refused to take the sobriety test (he would’ve fallen flat on his face anyway or stuck his finger in his eye). I found out today that he was trying to evade the cops and took the corner too wide, ending up in our neighbors’ front yard head into a power pole. I decided to take a couple pics of the scene of the crime:

Don’t drink and drive, call a cab. This guy’s life is going to be all kinda fucked up right now but at least he didn’t ruin anyone else’s life.
