This isn't just any old bagel. The fact that it's a Bodo's Bagel isn't even why I'm posting it today, but that in itself makes it post-worthy. Actually, I'm posting a picture of a Bodo's Bagel because I have successfully eaten one every day for nearly a week without a migraine, even though it contains two potential migraine triggers: malted barley wheat and fresh yeast. After 5 months of abstaining from Bodo's, I can once again partake of my favorite local cuisine. Yeah!

Today was a very boring, mundane work day, but the sky was beautiful. It was foggy in the morning, clear all day, and full of colorful clouds in the afternoon.

Photo Dan took of me today to submit to ASEE because of my award. I tried to look academic in front of my history of science books and collection of science stuff on a shelf. My hair needs some more highlights.

Went for a walk along the river... Here's a swan. My cell phone kept ringing the whole walk through. This was the day Jess got a flat tire and called for help, and Squirt got mad at me then called again to apologize.
