fantastic tequila
I got up this morning with a slight hangover. Heather and i had been drinking some wine and tequila the night before, although i think i was the only one having more than a taste of the tequila. I learned the wisdom of Heather’s choice when i got up and it was [...]

technorati

Friday, January 28th, 2005

hey. i just found this site called Technorati, which is devoted to keeping track of websites by tags. It works in a fashion similar to Delicious and Flickr where items get categorized by non-hierarchical user-defined tags that describe the content. I’ve set up my Wordpress blog so that every time i make [...]

collaborative nature books?

in my parents’ living room.
In my explorations of photography of late, I’m starting to recall a lot of things that i wanted to do as a kid. I was just talking with someone recently about rediscovering things you loved in childhood, and the conversation just came back to me as i was reading about [...]

what is a political picture?

Wednesday, January 26th, 2005

Sunrise outside my parents’ house
ok, so RedSara brought out the big guns and asked the million-dollar question: “what is a political photo?”. ya, ok, so you caught me. That’s sort of a wide open category, ain’t it?
I guess if i want to clarify my request for political photos, i’d probably go for [...]

on a moist walk to work
I’m excited about tomorrow…Since I’ve finished a big project at work that’s been hanging over my head like a black cloud, i decided to take friday off to relax a bit. Well, maybe not “relax”, per se, but do whatever i like. I’m planning on riding my bike [...]

wordpress weirdness

Wednesday, January 19th, 2005

hmmm…lately it seems that my blog software seems to randomly mess up the setting for the site url, which causes it to make a broken link to the stylesheet. It seems that several times a day i come to the site and find it styleless. Each time, i just log in as the [...]

wondrous rain…too early for spring?

Tuesday, January 18th, 2005

rainy view from my room right now
I really love this rain. I hear complaints all day, but what harm can a little moisture do? having it +10 and raining is so much better than -10. i walked for twenty minutes in it today, as part of my trip to work, and [...]

getting back on track

Monday, January 17th, 2005

I’ve recently decided to stop being such a slacker. I realized that even though i’ve got things i need to do, and things i want to do, i end up wasting my time doing various useless things like aimlessly surfin the web. My first step is to recognize when i’m drifting off into [...]
