It’s snowing. I don’t like it. Bah.

Xmas was fine. Did the requisite running around – up to Corinne’s family on xmas, down to my father’s the day after. Then a weekend of trying to recover. That was followed by a 3-day week of work that I’m technically still in – though I’m working from home today.

I had to bring Corinne to the doctor’s for a follow-up for her hand today. It required that I woke up earlier than I would have in any other situation, which was a bit painful, but I managed. I very well might visit nap land a bit later.

I’ve been doing a lot of photo-related stuff lately. Much of it is simply playing with my new cam and getting the most out of it. Unfortunately, I haven’t done a lot of “real” shooting because the weather has been a bucket of ass – and I hate going outside in the winter on top of that. I do so much less shooting when it gets cold out – it’s sad. I really wish I lived somewhere warmer.

On top of that, I’ve been doing a bunch of reading and research for some underwater shooting topics. We’re headed to the Bahamas in Feb and my gear list is going to be on the larger side. I need to buy a roller bag that I can carry on. My current photo backpack is nice, but it’s just not big enough for all of the stuff I’m going to need to bring for both topside and underwater shooting. I’m probably making a trip on Friday to a camera store to check out one of the bags that I’m interested in.

That more-or-less wraps things up. I’ll leave you with two fun (even if they’re not “good”) pictures of my cats that I took while playing with my new fisheye lens.
