Best Post Ever

WHY is this the best post ever? Because it’s being written on my new MacBook. You all know how I love gadgets and toys and geeky, techy stuff and this just tops them all. From the packaging to the glossy widescreen. The perfect little keys on the keyboard to the monster processor. It’s so much [...]

Christmas Lomo

I’m so very excited about this Christmas gift.
I took a test roll and dropped it off for development a few hours ago. In the meantime, I’m giddy with the realization that the fisheye viewfinder is removeable. This is a picture I took with my digital camera with the fisheye held directly up to [...]

Merry Christmas!!

I hope you all had a warm, fuzzy Christmas morning that continues into a lazy, indulgent Christmas Day.
Walls for the wind,
And a roof for the rain,
And drinks beside the fire
Laughter to cheer you
And those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire
- Irish Blessing

Five Things You Didn’t Know About Me

Lucy’s Ornament

This is Lucy’s ornament. Jef gave it to me last year for Christmas. He couldn’t find a black & white one, so he bought a white one and painted it. He had to keep calling her over so he could get her markings juuuuust right.
Reason number 592,355 why I love him.

Multiple Difficulties

Speaking of technical difficulties, guess what else died today? My lil Honda (yes, all my possessions are lil). Aaarrgg. I was on my lunch break doing last minute Christmas shopping and it just up and stopped running at a stop light. Frack! It restarted, but was not the same. Idling oddly, threatening to die again [...]

The Blender Won

Ladies and Gentlemen, I have sad news. After the infamous blender accident of 2006, I’ve known every day with my lil iBook was a gift, and several days ago, that gift stopped giving.
Truth be told, it hasn’t been the same since the incident. Sometimes sluggish, clicking or beeping, and finally unable to boot up at [...]
