Mornin Munchies
This guy was chowing down on some of the spilled bird seed near our feeder this morning. I went to grab my camera and was happy to see he was still hanging around.

This weekend was pretty damn packed! Spent some time with Louis and Jen helping them move. It was practically just across the street but still managed to smash my face on a box, rack my knee on the concrete and jam my thumb to the point where it flipped the nail up. Came home and finished up adding the divider to Sarah’s planter so she could finish up her herb garden. We also had a small visitor emerge from his cocoon. The butterfly from the previous post got some garden time before taking off (or being eaten by a bird, we aren’t too sure about what happened with him, but we will hope for the best.)
Battered and accomplished I set in for some Portal 2 time. I will do my best to get a full review of it up sometime after I finish the single player and start in on Co-Op (and whenever I can stop laughing!).
Sunday I managed to replace the kitchen sink disposal too! Thankfully Lowes was open and had a great plumbing expert on hand! Install of the new one was done in about an hour and they were an awesome help, despite the kludge that is my kitchen sink plumbing.
All in all, a very fulfilling weekend!

This little guy just came out of his Cocoon and was drying off on the sun.
Playin in the rain. This guy plays nearly rain or shine out on the streets of DC. This is on the corner of L and Vermont ave.

Went to a place called Okra’s in old town Manassas tonight for dinner. As per usual it was amazing! I wanted to play with the new camera a bit and take some pictures of my food (I know I know, I’m that guy). These are two of our favorite dishes:
The Choctaw Oysters. This was the last one left, they went far too fast.
The Pasta Diablo with Shrimp. By far my favorite dish there. Extremely spicy (in a good way) Highly recommended!
The only downside to going is that it’s kind of pricey, Plan for around $25 per person, but it is very much worth it. They occasionally have live music as well.
Straight off the camera color select test on the new Nikon D5100
Looks like I have a new toy waiting for me at home!
