I don't have to post to let you know the blog is on hiatus. But it is. There is just so much more stuff going on right now and this blog, while it treats me well, has just been pushed to the side. It's not that I'm over blogging... but I don't want to waste your time by posting nonsensical stuff about kittens stuck in boxes (while hilarious) to fill in the space. I want to give you quality

I'm in the middle of upgrading my Creative Suite and right now, is the scary part. I currently do not have any design software on my macbook pro. None. Of course, come people do amazing things with word or powerpoint, and sometimes paint, but come on. For a web/graphic designer/photographer/artist not to have an adobe product on her/his machine? Scary as all heck.So, i'm off to install my new

Oh, and as I contemplate the switch over to wordpress for the good ol' cadmium yellow blog, I thought it would be fun to try a new blogger template. It's like going shopping for shoes. They all look kinda nice but just don't seem to fit right.I'll let this one stay for a few days until I make my switch decision.Also, the Y key on my macbook pro is sticking.

As you might have noticed, my blog has been neglected. I hate to admit it, because I've been raised to grin and bear it, but this working and graduate school is HARD. So some things I do for fun need to take a back seat for a little bit. There are only about 50 days until the last day of classes so please, be patient.I will try to change my headers.

Holiday Recap

2010-01-04T14:00:00.001-05:00

I heart the holidays. It’s a great time for reconnecting with friends from near and far, and the happy go lucky spirit of the season. Here is a brief recap of the festivities! Christmas started with a wonderful peek out the window to see the Subaru with a big red bow on it, like in a Lexus holiday car commercial. While it wasn’t really our present to each other, it’s hard to not notice that

Got in yesterday afternoon, had a full day of training, and now thinking of ways to spend my evening.Oh, and Buffalo = boring, if you don't have a car. I'm also too cheap to rent one.

Last night on my way home from work, there was a homeless guy at the intersection of 299 and the 87 Thruway exit. I was a few cars back waiting at a red light when I noticed him. He was youngish, maybe 24, kind of scruffy and held up a sign that said "Anything helps". He wasn't waiving it around, or being obnoxious like some homeless people I've encountered. He really just seemed down on his

Found out today:Beatles Rock Band game will not be in any way compatible with our Rock Band or Rock Band 2 songs. This includes downloadable content, like the extra Weezer we bought, and original packaged RB1, and RB2 content. This effectively makes Beatles Rock Band a stand alone game with no ability to play with any of the other Rock Band Catalogs. Crap. This really makes the game less

While it's not the slickest I've ever done by posting about it here, I wanted to talk about the iPhone. I recently found out (today) that with AT&T, you can have a risk free trial of any phone (iPhone included) and have the option to back out for up to 30 days and get all your money back. As our current Verizon contract is about to expire, and I'm not too thrilled with their phone option line up,

2009-06-28T01:27:00.002-04:00

Is it morals or friendship that bind us together. Is is gender or loyalty that weigh our decisions. Is a long time friendship, no matter the current predicament overthrow the morals of the situation? Should you stay neutral and then go with the most beneficial party? How does one decide in the matters of life and love?The times they are a changin'.

It feels great to not have to worry about another round of proofing the annual report; catching a co-worker in a blatant lie which causes you to miss your file to print deadline; crashing your work website for two hours because the I.S. department set up a "test site" that turned out to be our "actual site"

It's a beautiful day in Gardiner. I'm currently trying to decide if I'm going to go to my Mothers boyfriends birthday party, bail on that and just sit outside for a few hours, take a walk, see if I can get a massage somewhere, or just admit to the world that I'm getting sick.Gilday has had a "tickle" in his throat for the past few days, and is now actually sick. Sneezing, coughing, sick. I can

It's officially spring break, and I'm busier than ever. Crazy huh? I so can not wait for Friday night. Not that I have anything going on, but that the week will be over and I can relax for a weekend. I'm thinking a spa morning somewhere for saturday. I totally need it.This whole adult thing... Over rated.

Just saw the Watchman. 3 words. Big - Blue - Cock. That pretty much sums up the movie.

well...

We're home this weekend. No Boston. So, today I'm about to install the Master Collection of Creative Suite 4. The box is open, the install DVD's are ready, and I'm ready to roll. Wish me luck.I'm thinking about upgrading the RAM on my Macbook Pro. Any takers of the assignment for me?

No, I'm not all about YouTube this week

Giggle attack

2009-03-11T15:11:00.003-04:00

I can't help it. I've got a case of the giggles, and it's making me cry. Which, reminds me of the time that I first saw the above LOLcat. Something about it just gets me every time.

amazing photography

2009-03-06T17:26:00.003-05:00

I totally want to do this! This is freaking cool as all heck. This photographer creates mini-planets out of circular horizon photos of objects and places. The photo above is the Notre Dame Cathedral that Gilday and I plan to visit while we are in Paris. :)

2009-03-05T20:21:00.002-05:00

I'm busy. And it scares me. Work exploded. School exploded. Life exploded. I asked for it and I'm getting it. And I between you and me, I don't think I can handle it.But I will.Now, summer class or no summer class. That is the question.

BarnsThis weekend last year, Gilday and I were on a very aggressive hunt for a new house. This shot was taken at one of the houses we saw that weekend. It was an old farm house on 44/55 in Gardiner that had been on the market for a while. The above is an interesting view of 3 of the 5 outhouse/barns that were on the property. The house didn't make much sense inside, and needed too much renovation

Black Dog SailI'm back on the band wagon folks. This is a shot of the sail from the trip we took on one the Black Dog Tall Ships in Martha's Vineyard for my birthday. Love the canvasness. That's right. I made up a word. Deal.

My Wordle of the day

2009-02-25T16:16:00.001-05:00

As you can see, my wordle is mostly about alcohol. Nice! Try yours!

Still here!

2009-02-23T21:04:00.002-05:00

Still alive, I swears. Just super busy. I let myself down this month, and, I'll probably do it again. But, I did manage to post 45 images in a row, with only resorting to old photo's every once in a while. Perhaps if I am to be successful, I'll need to open up my parameters of this self inflicted assignment. If I do that, it will really ease the burden of the every day shoot/transfer/edit....

Very cool.

Khoda from Reza Dolatabadi on Vimeo.This video is just amazing. Why? 6000 separate paintings and one five minute animated video. It took a student artist two years to paint them all and produce this. Pause the movie at any moment and you have an individual work of art.

Blurry Happy or Happily Blurry?I'm shooting in RAW now, and boy does it take up space on a CF card in the Canon! Wow. Currently I'm looking for a good deal on some 16 or 32 gig CF cards. Let me know if you have any leads?
