“Update” Cedar Park, 2017

こんばんは。

Today I got a nice surprise in that my phone received an update! I know, it’s a silly thing to get excited about but still, I love the little goodies that come with the software refresh. This time, I am most happy with the option to have a different wallpaper for the home screen and lock screens. I actually used to be able to do it when I had a different home screen launcher, but these days I am too lazy to add all the fancy stuff to my phone. I like to keep it streamlined (which is why I have a Moto G that runs a barebones version of Android) and simple. But if that stock experience includes cool animations and goodies with Android N, then it’s a win-win!

I hope you had a nice Friday.

こんばんは。How’s it going?

I rarely post about work, but I wanted to share one cool thing that the company I work at does for us – social events. We’ll occasionally have fun stuff at the Austin HQ such as pizza lunches, BBQ lunches, happy hour and appetizers, or cupcake afternoons. But today was something extra special. A crawfish boil! We gathered in the courtyard where tables were set up lined with paper, upon which heaps of steaming crawfish, potatoes, sausage, and corn were dumped from giant pots. It was quite a sight! This was perhaps the first time I’ve actually been to a crawfish boil like this, and I enjoyed it! I like crawfish, and the sausage was spicy.

Unfortunately, I could only stay for a little while because I had to get back home and pick up the kids, but I definitely got my fill of mudbugs!

Tonight the forecast is for a storm. Heavy rain, high winds, and hail are possible. 😳

Cloud photo

The photo above is one I took at around 6 PM when the wind was picking up and you could feel the changes in the air. At least the crazy weather brings with it some interesting clouds. 😄

Artwork

This evening I was browsing the work of an amazing digital artist. I just love Ilya Kuvshinov’s art! Simply fantastic.

I found many other great artists and illustrators this evening, but I’ll share them at future dates. Just so much cool stuff out there. 😄

I hope you had a nice Tuesday.
