Now this is a great way to start the day.

I'm going back to the basics in feasting on Mark. Today was Mark 3.

From WHYY in Philadelphia, it's the morning commute!

I'm fortunate to live about ten minutes from where I work. No highways involved.

Unless you're the lead dog...

Today just happened to be one of the 3-4 times per year my coworkers and I get together for a waffle breakfast.

I brought the berries and whipped cream.

It's not a bad cubicle, as far as cubicles go.

Of course, it's EXACTLY like the gazillion other cubicles in my company.

Watch out for Beaker and Mr. Peabody!

Back home, changing from the monkey suit and tie to jeans and a casual shirt.

Looks like someone was having a lot of fun while I was at work today...

OK, maybe TOO MUCH fun. I found a pile of jumbled hangers on the bottom of my closet floor.

Ava solved the puzzle and put them away all by herself!

We ran out to a very nearby Home Depot o get a (flourescent) light bulb, among other things, while Jeanene made dinner.

Dinner's ready (and Jeanene takes the camera).

While Ava was taking her bath, I played with the dog.

'Steinway' is 3/4 Boston Terrier and 1/4 (Parson) Jack Russell Terrier.

It's a great dog.

I sat on our back porch listening to nature (and the turnpike), still, and quiet.

Later that evening, Ava and I finished a chapter of Peter Pan, prayed, and she went to bed.

Then I worked on getting ready for the Top100 voting, while watching an episode of The Closer.
