Posting from my phone

By in travel

Yes, my Internet is about to get fired. On to the news: I just got back from our cruise to Cozumel. I’m still sifting through way too many pictures, and to add insult to injury, I took some video with my new 5D. Translation: I spent the better part of yesterday afternoon editing it and [...]

Jeff, Dwayne, and Al

By in Portraits

Yesterday around lunch time, I put myself on Assignment: to find three different people whose picture I could t[m]ake. And I gave myself an hour to do it. I had two motives for this: the first, my internet was dead. Again. I think I’m going to fire Cox …for real this time. And the second, [...]

pre-Cruise

By in Events, Portraits, travel

Yesterday, I literally spent the entire day catching up on all of the stuff I haven’t had time to do in the last two weeks.  It’s my new job, work is consistent over the long run, but in the short it can be kind of sporadic.  I think I love it. Tomorrow, some of my [...]

Rock climbing, introspection, and bumming $10 from Sam

By in Black & White, Events

And I totally forgot my wallet.  I didn’t realize it until I went to pull out my membership card for Slidell Rocks.  It was then I sheepishly looked up to explain my situation, “…and this never happens,” yadda, yadda, yadda.  Fortunately [...]

My New Job!

By in Random

Second day on the job!  Or…on the training, because I haven’t started any on-the-job work yet.  Technically I’m still unemployed until I pass my assessment at the end of the week.  But that okay, because I’ve definitely already quit my other job.  I use it as a hedge for motivation.  To always look forward and [...]

Man-Hike, eh…No. Birthday, Yes!

By in Family

Bad news on the Man-Hike front.  As it turns out, Man-Hike does not support inclement weather, and Homochitto State park was scheduled for a bunch of that stuff today.  Alas, nature will have to wait. On the other hand, yesterday was my beautiful Mum’s birthday!  September 11th, but it’s okay, she had it first.  The [...]
