Geeking, with cat...

Good luck on your first day working at Yahoo today, emmett_the_sane!

Pictures from Mary's Party!

So, as some of you know, a multitude of mactavish's closest friends conspired recently to buy her a scooter and give her a surprise party, for her birthday. And it was a wonderful day, and I wanted to share my photos of it with you all.



There are about sixty photos total. Normally, from any given event, I just choose my dozen or so favorites and post those. But in this case, that would be leaving a lot of folks out of the picture gallery. So, I'm going to do five separate posts of about 10-15 pictures each, with the majority behind cut tags, so as not to overtax anyone's browsers.

After mactavish had a chance to greet some folks and catch her breath, joedecker, deyo, and cjsmith led her over to her present - the scooter!

And here is Mary's wonderfully geeky cake:



It's geeky 'cause it shows Mary's age in binary. with white and blue candles to represent the 1's and 0's.

Finally Mary gets a chance to take her new scooter out for a spin:



See the sparklies on the handlebars? :-)

A moment on the other side of the camera: Here's a photo that deedeebythebay snapped of cortneyofeden, emmett_the_sane, and me:

Anyone know the URL...

Hi folks,

Did anyone save the link for the website where you can make the gorgeous "fat dyke" icons like the one in this post?

Thanks!
