Played a game (a real game, 1000 chips and 13 minute blinds) after work today. It was me, Jane, Justin, Ben, Chris and Mike. Great fun, as our games have been fairly forced and quick lately. Tonight, we each had a lot of chips, and a lot of time to try different things. To be …
For giving me a swift kick in the ass. Hopefully, this birthday idea will work out. Have I mentioned lately that you rock?
I swear to god… there has to be some formula out there for this. Whenever Justin gives me a ride home from work, we tend to just hang out double-parked in front of my place… talking about work and tech in general. I want to say that, if we’re out there talking for more than …
Rey needed a group shot of all of us today, and so we did a quick, impromptu group portrait. Seeing as how our most recent group portrait included Mr. T, perhaps it was a good thing we got this updated one. Lots of stuff going on for the upcoming Manager’s Meeting up at Corporate. This …
Today was also a work day. Got some good coding in, but happened across the movie schedule for WGN. Talk about perfect lazy Sunday afternoon movies. Damn! Ah well, so it goes. I did, however, catch one of my favorite moments from Three Amigos! – the scene with the Invisible Horseman. That part cracks me …
Woke up at 11 AM, a bit groggy… but awake. I get up, and start to get ready to head in to the office. It’s a sort of working weekend for me today, as I had plans to go in and work for a few hours. Well, apparently my body had other ideas. As each …
The last time we hung out, Anne and I talked about coordinating our respective party plans for the upcoming weekend of March 10-11. One of her brothers turns 21, and my birthday is on the 9th. I’m still not sure what I’m doing yet for my celebrations, but Anne and I had a few emails …
I don’t know what it is, but I’m just fascinated by the window washers who dangle from a rope to clean the windows. I take pictures everytime I see them while walking around downtown. I first saw the solo window washer guy (as opposed to the ones who work in pairs on a ledge) when …
Mike (L) and Cliff, battling it out for one of the Final slots. It was an exciting few games (first one to seven points, best of three). Cliff, as I mentioned, was last year’s office champ – and MAN, can that guy play. He was like a machine, just shot after shot in rapid-fire succession. …
There’s an interesting bit of synchronicity or *something* in the air lately. Maybe it’s just all the cool emails I’ve gotten lately. So far today I’ve corresponded with Jerome (and seeing how his project involved still images, I shared with him my project involving still images). I got an email from my friend Dan about …
I was working until about 7 or so. When I left the office, Chris was still there, plugging away. Oh – and Ben pulled an all-nighter last night. So far, I’ve been lucky with my workload. I was worried there for a while, but I’m in front of things now. We’ll see if this week …
From: DanTo: FelixSubj: the book I remember that conversation as well. I also remember the book — it was mine. Here’s what it looks like: Amazon Link Just got this one from the preview at Amazon: If you could spend one year in perfect happiness but afterward would remember nothing of the experience would you do …
This woman (who was walking using one crutch) stopped for a rest at the corner of Orleans/Wacker, waiting for the light to change. I only had time to try to snap a few shots before she got up again, but really liked the perspective I got. This is an old shot, from a few days …
On February 27th, 2006, through a bit of luck and circumstance, Felix met a girl named Liz.
On April 9th, 2008, next to the fountain at the Art Institute of Chicago, Felix proposed to Liz.
On September 12th, 2009, Felix and Liz got married.
