HoneyBee Boby


I really get a kick out of products packaged in Asian countries for American stores. A great little Asian run dollar store near us always has funny products. I took a couple of pictures with my phone of some toys today.

I think this HoneyBee Boby is supposed to be either HoneyBee Baby or LadyBug Baby. Some products that were not obvious had caucasion kids in the images but not a lick of English to explain what was inside.

A break from temping

Yahoo! An old boss working at an AR company recommended me for a position they were trying to fill in NYC and now I'm an environmental scientist. I don't think I'll actually being doing much more than glorified record keeping, but no more office clothes! I have to wear work boots, a respirator and at times, a hazmat type suit!

Work is at a construction site in the city and officially I'm monitoring air quality among other things.

All kinds of crazy stuff is happening in apartment land, but I'll save that for another day. The good news is that whatever happens, we're getting a dog finally!!!

Today I took advantage of not having to be at the jobsite, the warm weather and headed up to the Bronx Zoo. I posted a few photos from that on my flickr page. Nothing fancy, but just fun with my pocket-sized point and shoot. My flickr page is more of a blog than this is...
