Ok, this puddle only has a few days left. Do I transfer as many as I can down to one of the deeper pools along the creek as it dries up? #herps

favorite data manager! Lol. I always joke that I'm everyone's favorite data manager, but in the meeting it was stated without me having to prompt them. Or threaten to delete their data.

When i left my last role, I put framed pictures of myself around the office where I'd worked. No one noticed. I know they are still there because in the end I had to tell one person and asked them to check. It wasn't obviously me but I'd been there 10 years, it should have been recognizable as me.

Ok. It is the world cup. Not the fifa cup. I understand that some Americans might be confused because your world series of baseball has only 1 country in it. Discovering that the world cup is open to most countries who has a footie team might be too much, but still, it the world cup. #worldcup

Medium chance for tropical development along the Texas Gulf Coast this week
We're watching some tropical moisture which is increasing storm chances today, and could potentially develop into a more organized system this week.

Why bother putting up fancy bird houses? Just put your work gloves in a zip bag and use a clamp to hold it to the side of a feed bucket on a fence and wait for a wrench to build a nest in it! And yes, the built one in the bucket last year. #birds 🦉
A ziplock bag slightly open showing a partially built nest. The bag is attached to a green feed bucket with an orange wood working clamp. The bucket is hooked over a stable wall.

View from the office yesterday morning, it reminds me of that scene in jurassic Park as the dinosaur heads pop up out of the mists.

Sunrise over 610. If i was better at taking photos with my phone there is a certain beauty in the view from the office.
