Pictures from my Phone & Weekly Distractions

Salt Lake City is snowmaggedon lately. E'ry day there is another 97 feet of snow that I have to go out and shovel off of my driveway. And e'ry day this takes one full hour. And this morning I had to do this with a horrible cough and a voice so deep that there are earthquakes in Djibouti every time I answer my phone.

Send help.

And now, your Pictures & Distractions:

First, a video. Because I love Paul Simon. Not because I'm good at this.



Thanks, Matt, for installing my new light fixture!

Because I'm worth it.

Taking a walk with Mr. Pants through Westminster campus.

My new ax.

Mr. Pants!

Matthew and puppies.

Getting ready for our New Year's party. Mr. Pants is already over it.

My never-ending brick restoration project.

  1. I'm sorry - Utah is only 35th on the list of worst states for winter in the nation - Michigan is #2 - the only place worse in the winter in the whole freaking country is Minnesota - so unless you've moved to Minnesota - buck up buttercup!!!

  2. Oooooh I have new guitar envy! I already have an Ibanez, but I fell in love with a Cordoba crossover lately and I'm trying to justify purchasing it.

  7. Hahahaha! That Elf trailer reminded me of the one where The Shining is marketed as a happy family film. https://youtu.be/KmkVWuP_sO0

    And by the way, I think you should just stop shoveling the snow and just build a tunnel through it.
