034 and 035/365: 02-03-10 and 02-04-10 Not eating dinner then drinking wine is a bad plan.

What was supposed to be a zombie walk planning meeting turned into me getting far drunker than I meant to and being put to bed on Lindsey’s couch. So I guess I kinda ended up zombie-like. Here I am waving my arm around for some dumb reason.

Ain’t Jack cute.

So last night’s shenanigans have left me [...]

011/365: 01-11-10 Webcam Hilarity!

People like cats, right? And the Internet, right? I think I’m really onto something with the “cats on the Internet” idea I made up just now.

Day 272: It’s a beautiful day to be outside.

Perfect temperature, perfectly chilled breeze, no clouds in the sky. Blue bliss. I’m trying to spend as much time outside, or at least next to an open window, today as possible. I even let Miles stay outside for a few seconds after his customary dash out the back door every time I open it. I [...]

Housekeeping Mystery

How did Miles’ lair end up on the floor tonight? I haven’t touched it.

I’ll give you a hint…

Day 172: Sabu vs. Toy. Plus the news explodes.

Crazy news day. Farrah Fawcett died, and the mayor of Memphis resigned, and Michael Jackson died. Briefly, a rumor circulated that Jeff Goldblum had died. Someone somewhere probably saw Jesus in a grease stain. Apple approved softcore porn on the iPhone. What the hell, world?

All this upset makes me want a constant. And if there’s [...]

Project 365 returns, but this time it’s lazier

Like my damn cat.

Here’s what I’ve decided. Some of you may remember I was doing Project 365 earlier this year. I lasted about 50 days. My goal of documenting a new thing in my life each day was an admirable prospect, but I was shitty at keeping up with it. Finding a new thing, doing [...]

Day 58: Old becomes new.

I’m currently on a mission to scan/upload my photos back to birth. I drug out a box of duplicates from 1997-present, thinking that the hundreds of photos would be an unorganized pile. But surprise!!! at some forgotten time, I’d organized them! I had genuinely forgotten this, so fuck it, new to me, right?

Day 27: Camera lesson #?, depth of field.

Read up on depth of field a few days ago, and am using my new (but not complete) understanding of it to take macro shots. I took this one Saturday, but forgot to post it on the ol’ blog.

Day 22: Creating a rollover image.

Sunday I took some pictures of Miles climbing on a ladder. Two of them begged for a rollover effect. Monday (Day 22), I started to research how to do this. But I didn’t finish before I left work, so you get it today.

Day 12: Fancying up the cat food.

Who says I’m the only one who gets to benefit from new things? I bought some new wet food for my dry-food darlings. Miles is generally easy to feed because he is a gentle giant, but Sabu historically has shunned wet food, because he is a disapproving bastard who hates everything.  But I still love [...]

I feel like a turd…that’s been run over by a larger turd. — Adam Akin
