I’ve got an interesting batch of photos that I just transferred off my phone.

I went to lunch with Codi earlier this week at Five Guys, a burger place that we always go to on the Sunday of Tsubasacon before we head back home. They expanded into Columbus this year, and now there’s a location at the Gateway! They have huge portions of fries, so I got an order for us to split, and it ended up completely burying my burger in a hilarious way.

I got myself some Nerd Merit Badges. I don’t have anything to stick them to, but they do kind of stick well to the fabric that covers my computer speakers. </geek>

Now the rest of these photos are from my late grandparents’ house. Since I’m not doing a whole lot else this summer, I’m currently living in Toledo 4 days a week in order to help clean out their house, which is full of crap. That’s not really sarcasm. My grandmother (who was mentally ill) stuffed that house full for 30 years, and now me, my sister, and my brother-in-law are all sorting through stuff and getting the trash out of the house.

Some interesting high-heeled sandals I found, with carved wooden heels.

This is the coolest thing– it’s a Weston Wattmeter that’s dated January of 1916.  There’s also a set of blueprint diagrams that were tucked into the lid of the box.  My great-grandfather was an engineer, so we think it belonged to him.  It’s very steampunk.  More pictures:

With it is also a Weston Ammeter, but it’s not dated.  They certainly look like they go together, though.

Lastly, a school paper by my uncle from when he was a child:

I like the airplane best. ^_^
