So, I’ve been consumed by this photography thing lately. Obsessed more like it. Since buying the 20D I feel I’ve learned quite a bit, and gotten better. Yesterday I made an excursion to a the corner of Route 48 and 22 to take some shots of the 2 abandoned houses. These are few of the…

Dear Anal-retentive Malady,
I can understand not bending the rules so as to keep civil order. I can understand setting standards so that there is reasonable expectation upon citizens and their mail habits. But you are the dictator of the post service and you make me weep in pissed-off-ed-ness. I left 2 Netflix DVD envelops in our mail…
Read MoreLoneliness finds her own way through parking lot cities with a coal miner’s sense
Since I’m waiting around for my very large Photoshop file to save (a 7′ x 4′, 300dpi, 2GB file … doing anything takes ages; and being the smart, savvy designer I am, I used many layers, masks, and effects), I thought I might write. The idea of New Year’s resolutions have always been a sour…
Read MoreThanks Santa
So we got a post-Christmas gift from “Santa” (you know who you are) and wanted to be sure to show him what his generous gift looks like in the house. So, thank you Santa for dining table set; we love it and it looks spectacular in the room. All the pictures are here.
Read MoreHappy New Year!
Happy New Years to all of you our friends (and family)! Here’s to remember to write ‘06 (I know it’ll take me at least a week). If 2006 is as wonderful as 2005, then it will be an absolutely amazing year.
Read MorePlease God, let this ‘vacation’ be over …
… possibly in the next 3 days, before I kill the kids. This long with them together, with no school or (real) breaks from each other (and us) makes them … slightly … annoying. Very annoying actually. The punching. The fighting. The pulling. The pushing. And the crying. And then there’s the kids …
Read MoreWhat just happened here – a year in reflection
The idea of remembering the year gone by appeals to me more and more the older I get — mostly because I forget most everything that has happened. So, I’d like to reflect on the year (nearly) gone by — because I’m old and nostalgic that way. Sit back, relax and be prepared to read…
Read MoreMerry Christmas
We hope that this weekend (and the coming week) are joyous, wonderful, entertaining, without (bad) incident and radiant! We love you all, and are so thankful for you!
Read MoreThe gift that keeps giving all year ‘round.
I just got my free iPod Nano video in the mail. I won it post-participatorily (?) from the cre824. I’m excited. Quite. I’m not sure what to do. I just keep starring at it. Merry Christmas to me, 2 days early.
Read MoreDropping links, and random things
I learned about this Death Cab venture when I was at Ryans birthday. One of the videos was shot here in Cincinnati, with the help of Lightborne in Over the Rhine. I don’t know the song it was for, but I know it was filmed in an empty swimming pool with kids dressed like adults….
