This past sunday, we had wedding shower on saturday night and a small brunch sunday morning. The brunch was held at my friend casey’s family’s home. (Casey runs Roxwel and Blastro, and has a bit of a blog his own here.
I worked for Blastro for a while myself, back in 2000. We were building out their content management system & streaming media infrastructure, and, the fun part was that, at the time, they were broadcasting live music shows every night. So, at about 5 or 6, after work, people would start showing up to do a show, bringing beer with them. For us, work became party, every night. That was actually one really fun work environment.
Anyway, back to the present. We went swimming, and I brought Gizmo and Gadget over. I didn’t figure they’d like the pool, but Gizmo was really interested in it. I pulled him in, but he was terrified, so I let him sit on the side of the pool. Then, I brought Gadget in, and he actually started to warm up to it.
The picture is of me letting him climb onto my back, almost playing “chicken” with him on my shoulders. I’ve got video on YouTube that’s uploading now, so next chance I get, I’ll have some actual video of Gadget swimming.
