decennial

last november i clocked my tenth year as an employee in creative services at Williams-Sonoma.

this past may, they held the annual service recognition breakfast(s), wherein everyone who had marked a five, ten, 15, 20 and even one 30-year anniversary was given a gift, some food and a few kind words from their manager.

afterward, we got to have a photo taken with Chuck Williams, the founder and only 94-year-old dude i know. the guy still edits cookbooks, comes to work every day and is extremely well-dressed. super rad.



this thing had a lovely carafe with fitted glass in it.


everybody loves a good buffet.


wore my good shoes.

subaru impreza hatchback review

yeah, i reviewed an impreza before, but that one didn't have ALL-WHEEL DRIVE. i can't even begin to describe how much of a difference that makes. it's like going from a skateboard to an audi. and subaru knows it, 'cause they threw down for an interior that's slightly nicer than the borimpreza. the hatchback is a car i would actually request in the future... if i wasn't on some ridiculous mission to review a load of different rental cars for my stupid weblog.

also, someone remind me to bring a car adapter with an audio cable next time, all the cars have aux jacks now.
