We are open.

 

The landscapers have done a bit of a shit job, but what do you expect for a pint of Tenants Super and a bag of pork scratchings.

 

This week we are also pleased to announce that toilet paper has been added to the conveniences, so regulars can stop using their hands.

 

Sadly, Phil 'The Power' Taylor has cancelled his PA. We are not sure why.

Constants of the IIN office: pretty flowers and optimism.

Cold winter day on Lake Michigan.

I am constantly amazed that there are actually people who will ride their bikes in the winter. More than once I've been struggling through the snow, trudging along, and some loon goes weaving crazily by on a bike that is sliding everywhere.

Seriously, would you run any idea past this man? Why?

Don't be so stupid.

 

(As I was walking on my own, my brain occupied itself with e.g. inventing a motivational poster with that title and subtitle for this picture.)

In this picture, the camera caught one of my only smiles that night. This was a long night full of strenuous organic chemistry studying. The picture was taken in one of the study rooms in The Residence on Tenth. As you can see there are chemical formulas on the dry erase board that I got to practice. This picture is important to me because it reminds me to always take a little bit of time to find a reason to smile. Even when what I am doing is boring and stressful, there is always something to smile about in this world. This is important to my identity because it shows my optimism even the times that it is hardest to.

One of my favorite quotes ever.

I directed Kasey and told her how I wanted the picture taken.

In the window of new business in the neighborhood.
