Hey all. Been awhile, but I'm still in the middle of my travel season. This coming weekend it's off to Waco. Hopefully it will be a decent time. Get to go on a tour of SpaceX and L3.

Had my review this week. It went very well. My boss told me that despite the chatter of layoffs, my employ is quite safe. She said that the upper eschelon still remember a few years ago when I was giving a summary of my position at the time, and I told them it needed to be eliminated for the sake of the company. Today, that story would have a different ending, but I apparently still get props by the big wigs for doing it.

I went to the DBF competition last weekend in Tucson, AZ. It was a great time, despite the 90 degree heat and only 10% humidity. My lips got soooooooo chapped after the first day. I bought some chapstick with spf30 on the next day, but they're only starting to fully recover now - ugh!.

The competition was a blast though. I always enjoy going out there. The dessertscape is so beautiful this time of year. The field we were at for the competition was way out in the middle of the Saguaro National Forrest. Yes, that's right. Saguaro. It's hills and hills of cactai of all kinds: saguaro, pattypan, barrel, and more. And the desert roses are in bloom. Gorgeous.

Well, gonna sign off for now, but here's a photodump of the competition and desert.

And, am I crazy, or is this a Cthulu Cactus?

thank you for the lovely support and kind words. Guess I'll be the family pariah for a while, but if they want to bring it up, I will quickly shut them down. I don't want to talk about it all. Need to perfect the waffle recipe, make the maple flavor stand out more! Astrid fights being put into the shirt...but he's so cuddly
