Day 195 through 197

Whatever.

I've been feeling under the weather lately. Which is strange, because normally I'm under the weather unless I'm on a SPACE ADVENTURE! Anyway, I'm a bit sick. You'll have to forgive me. Or don't.

So first, I've got this little balloon flower. At a yogurt shop near where I work, it was their first birthday, so they gave out free yogurt for 1-1/2 hours. There was a friend's mom making these balloon animals and flowers and hearts, so I had to grab a picture of one. There was a little 8 month old boy next to us who didn't wake up after two different balloons popped. His parents even let him play with a small balloon dog for a bit - it was cute.

Next, here, I've got dusty outlines. There were small rubber animals - a dolphin and a whale - that were sitting on my old desktop monitor. I finally got all the junk off of my old computer moved to my laptop and moved the desktop and all its accessories and things to the back room. of course I dusted the monitor off first, but I had to grab a shot of this. I've had this computer for a long time. And there was so much junk on it. After moving many of the files, it was running a lot smoother than I remembered. I've still got Microsoft Office 2007 on it which takes up a lot of the RAM and C: drive, but that's just about the only thing that's even left on the computer.

Lastly, there's this "omnomnom" face. She works at the yogurt place that was giving the free food. I also know her from high school. She looks like a panda, whether she agrees or not (and whether her sister agrees or not as well). I was pretty happy to hand off Pit section leadership to her and the other girl that does it. From what she told me, their section gets along really well. That makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

Anyway, I've got to grab some medicine. It was a pleasure to get updated again. Also, I bought a new TV. Pictures to be posted of it later. Hurrah.

Day 122

Awww yeah.

Picture: A red flower

Background: I'm sure my local flower-namer will be around soon. This is hanging up by the front porch. I tried something different for taking the picture tonight. I used the macro setting (for taking up close pictures), backed up, and used flash after zooming in. Got a couple pictures of a clematis that came out interesting as well. I had to use flash due to it being dark outside, but the marigold picture I took without flash might be decent enough to show you all. If it was more in focus, the golden color with the night background would make it "glow" (as my mother said when I showed the ones I took to her).
