After yesterday's rain today was bright and sunny, I even wore shorts all day. Just after sunset I took this picture of the de Young museum tower against the clear sky.

#73 Raindrops keep falling on my......
First full day of heavy rain San Francisco has seen in probably 6 months, yet (as you can see from the windows) it was still really bright. I got to the lab at college and my sunglasses were covered in raindrops.

#72 Floppy Disc
T cleaned out the bookshelves and found this. How can something that was this ubiquitous just a few years ago now be such a rarity now? I can’t remember the last time I used one of these 3.5” disks. I’m kind of interested to see what’s on it (probably nothing exciting) but I don’t have a floppy drive on my laptop or on my desktop at work. I wonder if CDs and DVDs will go the same way in 10 years?
#71 Playing In The Dirt
These trucks belong to one of the kids in our building. Clearly someone had been playing construction in the dirt in our courtyard.

#70 Lockers
Walking from the computer science building to the biology building today and I noticed these lockers. I don't know if it's intentional or not but the colors follow the light spectrum going Red->Green->Blue->Violet. We didn't have lockers at school, I don't think many English schools do, here in the US lockers and this style combination lock are a staple of the highschool experience. This was brought home to me at a team building day out we were forced to go on at work a few years ago. We had to do some tasks that ended up with us getting the combination to one of these locks, our team lost the 'race' becuase I had no idea how to open it.
#69 Flowers at the Deli
Very busy week this week, work is busy, school is busy, didn't really have time to take much. Snapped these flowers outside the deli opposite my job while they were grilling the chicken for my grilled chicken sandwich (which was very yummy and the size of my head). Quite impressed these flowers are still going strong in October.
