Today’s been slow in terms of not receiving any calls from work (hope I didn’t just jinx myself there). So earlier Corinne and I did some running around and I decided to stop at a gaming store and pick up some translucent dice to play around with. Since ETTL metering is an absolute mystery to [...]

It’s 6:15 and I’m still up. I went down to RI last night around 9 to hang out with a friend that’s in town from the West coast. Took off a bit before 2 and rolled into bed around 2:45ish. Not 5 minutes after I dozed off, my phone rang and I had to get [...]

It’s been hot here. Very hot. I’m dealing, but not without some crazy fan and AC action. The kitties seem to be getting by, which is always good. Wednesday AM I’m primary oncall. Right now I’m secondary, which means I can get calls, but it’s not that often. I got one on Saturday, and it [...]

Here’s a few macro shots of anoles from my NC trip last weekend. Shot with 30D + 100mm f2.8 macro + Canon 500D close-up filter + MT24-EX flash. These three all came out of the same opportunity, which is why they’re so similar. I liked them all, so I figured I’d just post the three. [...]

I’m working in McDonalds right now. Not serving burgers, but I got a call on the road, so I rolled in and I’m logging in remotely. The network guy is fixing some stuff right now, so I have a few mins. Can’t wait to get back on the road and get back to enjoying my [...]

Finally saw Indiana Jones and The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. I’ve heard all the reviews but honestly thought, “I can’t be that bad.” I was wrong. I have the Indiana Jones Raiders/Temple/Crusade Box Set, which I watch on a semi-regular basis. I will not, however, ever be adding Crystal Skull to my collection. It [...]

I received my book yesterday afternoon from blurb.com and I wanted to take a bit to talk about it (and people wanted to hear about my impression of the service). First, when I went to get a book printed, I first tried mypublisher.com. In my experience, the software was simply horrible. Well, maybe that’s putting [...]

That’s what the weather outside looks like. It’s wet, super windy and a bit chilly. Blech. I’m working from home today. I was up until 3am working and I’m waiting for the book I made/ordered to arrive. Since tonight’s my last photo class of this course, I kinda need it, as it’s my final project. [...]

I’m fighting off boredom by chatting with Corinne (who I’m also help fight off boredom) and was looking through photos from today as well. There’s a few that I really like that I uploaded for her to take a look at that I figured I’d share as well. Since I’m not near my main PC [...]

I’m at Logan and leaving for North Carolina in a bit. I’ll be there until Monday afternoon, at which point I fly back to Boston. I’ll have limited connectivity, but I’ll be on from time to time. If you need anything, I’ll try to get to it as best as possible. Much like Boston public [...]
