January 1

Ah, fresh new blog. I've toyed with the idea of doing a Project 365 blog for a while, wondering whether or not I'd be able to keep it up, but I'm going to give it a whirl, anyway.

The first photo is one of my side of our joint office before I scale an all-out reorg offensive. It needs it, badly, and will need to happen before I begin school again later this month.

On the second shelf from the top you'll see my blog penguin, Leslie, a surprise gift from my daughter Meghann sometime back. Had I gotten close enough, you would also see on that shelf a copy of The Way of a Pilgrim with a remarkable likeness of a Charlie Sheen mugshot on the spine. The cute cherub in the frame is my daughter Erin at 1 year.
