Look what was waiting for me at the new Habitat store in my hometown! (Status-kitchy art-o-rama)

A Habitat for Humanity ReStore opened up in my hometown but I am not usually in my hometown on the days that it is open.  As luck would have it, my visit a couple of weeks ago happened to coincide with the store hours and I snagged these three great tiki themed pieces of art!

Tour of the Columbus Museum of Art 20th Century show and sale 2013 (Status: opening night pictures)

This past weekend, September 27-29, the Columbus Museum of Art had it's second annual 20th Century show and sale event.  I was able to offer a pair of tickets to the Friday night preview party and to attend.  There was free food and drink (sorry, the Tom Collins may have cause a blurry pic here and there).

Road trip to Ann Arbor Michigan (Status: It must be good for an OSU guy to visit UM land)

I was bored one night and decided to peruse the Craigslist for Ann Arbor, I mean, what the heck can they have up there in "that state up north"?  One thing grabbed me with it's ridiculously cheap price that made spending $80 on gas still well worth while.  This teak desk in a cabinet or desk in a box.

It's not a drumstick but it is a Viscount! (Status: often misattributed)

I got up early to hit an estate sale, prior to going to my job, so I could nab this beauty

It's not a George Nelson but... (Status: astronomically starbursting)
