The Nikiverse: Disaster. Decisions. Delicious.
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/08/disaster-decisions-delicious.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Disaster. Decisions. Delicious. When Amy and i got to our sushi place on Monday we were distraught to find it closed. I mean, closed closed. Like closed forever, no-furniture-inside closed. For a moment we both stood with our foreheads resting on the window, filled with melancholy and woe when she suddenly stood up straight and said, Well, t here's always Honey Pig. Haven't you ever been to Honey Pig? She continued upon seeing my dazed expression. I want the story behind the s...

The Nikiverse: bowing to the inevitable march of time
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/04/bowing-to-inevitable-march-of-time.html
Saturday, April 25, 2015. Bowing to the inevitable march of time. Well i finally had to give in and buy some magnifying readers. Yes, i realize that i am over forty. And yes, i realize they are only 1.25Xs. And yes, i realize that i paid less than $5 for them. But still. glasses. I don't need them all the time, but print that i can read at 11 am is crazy fuzzy at 11 pm so they are necessary. I was at least able to get blingy ones. Are those books overdue, young man? Nnice look. Dad. Visit My Etsy Store.

The Nikiverse: Do you have purpose?
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/06/do-you-have-purpose.html
Thursday, June 11, 2015. Do you have purpose? The last few weeks have been doozies. I think it is time to change my quote. Take it away Mr. Ralph Waldo Emerson:. The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well. Thing about it is, if you live this quote, if you strive to be useful, honorable, compassionate, guess what? You find you are happy. June 16, 2015 at 1:25 PM. Visit My Etsy Store.

The Nikiverse: late-century anthropomorphized dehydrated fruit
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/04/late-century-anthropomorphized.html
Thursday, April 2, 2015. Late-century anthropomorphized dehydrated fruit. There are some things from your childhood that just make you smile. Passing a house recently, i was stopped dead in my tracks:. Are those hand-cut wood California Raisins? Why yes, yes they are. How have i not noticed them before; i have been past that house before. Maybe there are new owners who just put them out? Why would they have just put them out? Have they been around since 1986? I remember watching it with my parents. Jewel...

The Nikiverse: Gyro Grilled Cheese
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2010/08/gyro-grilled-cheese.html
Saturday, August 21, 2010. I just came from lunch at Grilled Cheese and Co. Their special right now is the Santorini: gyro meat, feta cheese, chopped red onion and tzitziki sauce grilled on chibata. People, if you like gyros, if you like grilled cheese you must, must, must go right now to try this wonderful marriage of the two. It is on special so there are no guarantees of how long it will be around. Never would it have even occurred to me to turn my beloved gyro into a grilled sandwich. Jewelry and pap...

The Nikiverse: enormous disco snowman
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/03/enormous-disco-snowman.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. How did they even build him that big without a skid-steer? At night you could really see his branch arms busting the disco moves (especially if you jiggle the camera accidentally). Yes, he was so massive they put a floodlight on him. Thanks to Rea for teaching me the word skid-steer. Yesterday. I had no idea that the wee Bobcats and Caterpillars you see at constructions sites had a name besides those little bulldozers.

The Nikiverse: May 2015

Saturday, May 23, 2015. Birds thwart their thwarting. Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Oh my gosh, how much i have missed being here. The last week has been all about NikCo: a card set update on Etsy, first show of the season, May/June class list. Busy with work is ALWAYS good, but it doesn't leave much time for hanging out at the library to share completely random things,. Like this tortoise yard art. That for a moment,. From a distance,. I thought was real. Happy May to you all! Her first...

The Nikiverse: just a tiny thought
http://thenikiverse.blogspot.com/2015/06/just-tiny-thought.html
Monday, June 22, 2015. Just a tiny thought. I was just bidding on some NikCo supplies on EBay and had an epiphany. I like to sort by "ending soonest" and take my chances placing my maximum bid when there is less that 1 minute until it ends. There is that 2-3 seconds where your brain is like Am I going to be the highest bidder? Will the message come up green or red? It is the same feeling that you get when you pull the handle on a slot machine. July 1, 2015 at 2:11 PM. August 6, 2015 at 1:08 PM. I Don't K...
