Derek Frisk

I'm Derek, 41 years old. Working part time at Iowa Title Company. I have a long hair black cat named Blackie. I have great interest in working with computers.

Probably would've been screwed otherwise. This wireless keyboard was on my desk for at least a decade, so I'd say that's pretty damn good!

So, in my cubicle, right when I was in the middle of indexing receipts, this keyboard suddenly drops dead on me! Talk about bad timing. Fortunately, in one of the vacant (unused) cubicles, there was still a keyboard (it's even a corded one), so I'm borrowing it.

I have been more careful since. That would be awkward.

For nearly all of my life, I've had this plush Pac-Man. It can be seen in numerous photos of my old bedroom at the old house. He currently hangs in my present bedroom. 🙂

2018, at my parents' place. At that time, a friend and her son came out to visit us. Her son got to go fishing from the pond, along with my mother.

1987, in the first floor front bedroom of my parents' old house. Their cats, Taffy and Max, happened to be hanging out in there. Taffy is in all three photos. She must have been in a playful or ornery mood, as it appeared that she had Max pinned on his back, in the last photo! 😂

From 2012. My parents' kitty, Dexter, was laying on their bed.

From 2011. My parents' kitty, Dexter, was comfortably stretched out on the loveseat. He looked so adorable!

[Derek Frisk @DBFrisk2001]

I have a good mind to make this sometime!! 😋

[Derek Frisk @DBFrisk2001]

It has worked out better for me than my other pillows from before.

From 2011. A couple pictures of my parents' kitty, Dexter, who was 6 and a half months old at that time. It's hard to believe that these days, he is 15 and a half years old!!

That's when I gave up on it. Years later, I learned that particular Fitbit model was recalled, on account of burn/fire risk. I sometimes miss having a smart watch, but I don't know if it would make sense to buy another one.

[Derek Frisk @DBFrisk2001]

Back when my old Fitbit started to go haywire - I don't think that the sensors were even working anymore. And eventually, its backside warped so much, that it was no longer possible to charge it, since the connector pins couldn't line up properly with the contacts.

2009, in the master bathroom. For whatever reason, Blackie was laying on the ledge beside the edge of the whirlpool tub. My apologies for the poor quality of these photos - they'd been shot with my old LG flip phone.

2003, on the front porch of my parents' old house. Mostly random photos. It sure does not have the same view nowadays. 😞

2003, in my old bedroom at the old house. Just a bunch of random photos of it. I think I was letting my niece try out my really cheap digital camera. I still miss that old bedroom - dunno why. 🤷‍♂️
