12 of 12 - Remember When I Used To Do These All the Time?

12 of 12 on weekdays are pretty boring for me since I spend a majority of my day at my desk. However, I really wanted to get this one done since I haven't done one in a while.

Best. Birthday. Card. Ever. It's like art and stuff. If only you could feel the black velvet.

Our network kept imploding today so my monitor looked like this most of the day.

Like my monitor stand?

Our new vending machine has "healthy" snacks like Baked Cheetos. Although, I do point out, they are still Cheetos.

After I got home, my neighbor rang my bell. She had a package that was delivered for me....from fredflare.com!

Last week, Jen emailed me to tell me I won a contest they had. I won this awesome book that Chris & Keith are featured in.

Chris & Keith signed it too! And there was a nice note from Danit. Those guys and gals at fredflare.com are just the best people ever.

To enter the contest, we had to leave a comment about a great find from a thrift store. This is mine. A 1937 copy of Etiquette by Emily Post. It is hilarious.

An example of the useful advice: "A girl may give a boy a photo of herself, but don’t sign it, because a name on a girl’s picture in a college man’s room is apt to challenge the sort of attention that every well-bred man hates."

Hey look! I actually finished my 12 of 12. Who would have thunk it?

Thanks Jen, Keith, Chris, Danit and everyone else at fredflare.com! Stay cute.

Best pizza box ever, hands down.

Great post Brian! Welcome back to the 12 of 12! (I think you stole my motivation, I totally spaced it today!)

SUPER cute post, Brian! Loved it. So happy you like the book. Thx for being so AWESOME!

love to see these again!
Awesome!

Oh, I've missed your 12 of 12 posts :D

Those pink shoes are awesome. I need them.

I love the etiquette book - what a great find! It's less a model for now, and more a historical find.

And hey, does the deskage mean a job now? I'm sure you didn't have that in the last 12 of 12 you posted! If so, congratulations!

Sorry I'm late - busy at work and then a long weekend away!

great 12 of....

Brian! Sorry I'm so behind. This is a great post! I love the 12 of 12 idea, and your pictures are stellar and funny! I agree about FF. Kudos on winning!
