That’s Jenn’s painting in its new grey frame, our new grey landing, and a very cool poster/map/Shop + Dine Guide to Lamar Street I nabbed at SXSW2009 (with the lovely Joy Pecknold) on the wall in my grey office.  All presented in vertical stripes because they are oh-so-slimming.

If you look closely at the cork board in the center picture (which, by the way, I nabbed years ago from Roommate Katy’s junk pile – She made it herself) there is a picture in the top left-hand corner.

This picture, to be exact:

That’s me on the right, watching with equal parts awe and jealousy as my late PaPa allowed my older brother to clean out his fingernails with his pocket knife.  What I was jealous of?  Equal parts Attention from PaPa and I WANT TO PLAY WITH THAT KNIFE.

I love that picture.  It makes me smile every single day.
