      Haha it absolutely did. I had no clue they looked like that, then had to read a couple articles on them, and one had this great pic

          I always love finding the little nuggets, like the fuck is this post going on about, see there is no comments and scroll a few pages and see the post. Or saw it in the morning. Its just small enough that 8 hours doesn’t seem to miss too much content on the first few pages of the “all”.

            i often browse at work, which is extremely dull, and i often am at work in the early morning and later in the evening, including on the weekends-- times when it’s dead here. this gives me extra time to really soak it all in when there’s few people around.

            too bad this computer doesn’t have photoshop on it.

    I tracked down the house I lived in until I was 5-6. I have lots of pictures of it in its glory and I remember it fondly.

    It was an old 1800s school building that my parents converted into a house. Very cool building, lots of old-school charm (hehe).

    Finding it was a huge mistake. The present owners don’t even live in it, they built a house just to the side of it and use the old structure as support for solar panels, and probably storage for the junk sprawling over the property. Which… I’m down with solar but it’s so sad to see something with so much history, charm, and character… absolutely ruined in under 30 years.
