The other side of the lens
Filed in blog, Thu, 27 Jul 2006, 9:27 amLast week, Lisa and I spent a couple hours with one of our wedding photographers in Hoboken for a “pre-engagement shoot”. It’s a way of getting some professionally shot casual photos as well as getting to know the only people who get to boss you around on your wedding day. Most importantly, it was a [...]
Inauspicious beginnings
Filed in blog, Wed, 26 Jul 2006, 10:01 amSaturday marked the begining of my final week as a single man. So I proceeded to get trashed beyond belief at a friend’s party - in front of Lisa. Ugh. There’s a number of reasons why I don’t drink like that. It’s not just the crappy feeling afterward, but also that fear of how stupid [...]
Lady in the Water
Filed in blog, Sat, 22 Jul 2006, 12:33 amLisa and I lifted our year-long ban on seeing movies in the theaters for the opening of M. Night Shyamalan’s latest flick, Lady in the Water. Alright, it wasn’t actually a ban, so much as laziness. Heck, we even tried to see The Devil Wears Prada once, but it was sold out. Anywho, what was [...]
On the Internet
Filed in blog, Fri, 14 Jul 2006, 11:33 amI really need to start a linklog or something, because I lose too many sites I want to mention to browser woes. Here’s a quick rundown of things that have caught my eye:
This t-shirt is brilliant, but I really need this one. Go through the entire Oddica catalog when you get a chance.
I may not [...]
Slight geekery ahead
Filed in blog, , 10:00 amI finally upgraded this site to WordPress 2.03. I try not to wait a month and a half to fix security problems, but I’m lazy. Actually, I heard hints that 2.04 would actually be very hot on its heals due to an unrelated issue, but last week they were still working on a bughunt for [...]
Zooom, zooom, zooom
Filed in blog, Wed, 12 Jul 2006, 10:22 amI’m giving Zooomr a try. Flickr is still cool and all, but I’ve never been a big user, and probably never will. Once I have the time to really sort through my photography, I want it on my own site. But for quick sharing, it’s time I try to use one of these sites at [...]
Chemical warfare
Filed in blog, , 10:00 amJust because you guys can’t seem to get enough of those wacky crickets, here’s another update. I caved in the other night and finally decided to launch into chemical warfare against those jumping freaks. I whipped out the can of Raid I found the other day that specifically mentioned killing their kind on the label [...]
Award-winning dinner
Filed in blog, Fri, 7 Jul 2006, 4:10 pmLast night, after a couple pint o’ Guinness and some shots of tequila, there weren’t a whole lot of options for dinner when I stumbled home. I decided the remaining Hot Pocket in the freezer would help my tummy, and threw it in the microwave. Despite their popularity, I only recently had any of these [...]
