Vacation!
My dad has brought me back out to California! I've been waiting for this day for weeks, and it feels wonderful to be here. The flight was different this time, for two reasons. First, it was at 6 AM. Before dawn. Second, it was a connecting flight--Atlanta to Denver to Orange County. I'd never done a connecting flight on my own before, and I can't ( Read more... ) -
Paying homage to Thor and related awesomeness
I'm getting really good at cleaning. Which is a good thing, but incredibly boring. Thankfully, I have a TV and lots of movies ( Read more... ) -
AVENGERS!
I finally saw The Avengers! AND I LOVED IT! It was absolutely incredible! It was everything that has been promised, and more! The fights were incredible, and the way the characters interacted was totally believable. Everyone was in perfect character, so of course I've fallen deeper in love with Tony Stark/Iron Man AND Steve Rogers/Captain America. ( Read more... ) -
Details on the camera!
I won't go into ALL the details Daddy gave me, but I will share that my new baby IS digital. It has 12 megapixels and two different wide angle lenses with huge zoom detail. It can do panoramic shots and (I hope) macro shots, although I might want to look at getting a separate dedicated macro lens. Has face recognition feature and high speed modes ( Read more... ) -

Sorry I've been missing--I've been listing buttons/photo prints/random knickknacks on Etsy and/or Shapechanger and/or eBay almost 24/7 since I got back from California. Haven't had much free time at all. When I wasn't teaching or listing or being an emotional basket case, I've been going on walks trying to take photos. I haven't had the time to ( Read more... ) -
Sad Haku
I need to get a more reliable stream of money in. I hate losing privileges like my LJ paid account because I'm suddenly poor. -
(Untitled)
I can't believe how greedy people get. 640 million dollars for one, two, or three people? That's absolutely insane. GOVERNMENTS don't have that much money. Me? I just want enough to live happily. I want enough money to know that we never have to worry about missing another bill, that we never have to worry about eviction again, to buy groceries on ( Read more... ) -
San Juan Capistrano!
Yesterday we headed out to the Mission, and I was hoping that there would not be many schools on field trips this time. Well, I was wrong on that score. It turned out there were a LOT of schools on field trips--even from JAPAN! That was pretty awesome though. And while the Mission was indeed crowded I still got some really fantastic photos and ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Meow vs. Arf
I love both, but I like cats because I can leave them alone for hours and hours on end and I KNOW they will be okay. Dogs are too needy for my lifestyle. -
Writer's Block: Kiss me, I’m Irish!
It's raining, so I am staying inside today. But I've had a very busy week running all over Southern California, so it's nice to have a chance to relax!
