So our beautiful heat wave is over and it’s winter weather and brrrrr! Did I mention BRrrrrr?

I’ve been on quite the photography spree. I also bought some conversion lenses so I can get a little more use from my camera. Ebay, woohoo. I have a 2x and a .45x now. They came this afternoon. So now… what to use them on? ROFL. I guess first it needs to warm up so I can actually stand to be outside!!! I’m going to try to at least get some shots to compare the lenses to post.

I also have been playing in Photoshop. I wanted some new portraits of us since it has been a couple of years, I don’t know. I’m trying to decide now which ones to print to give out and to frame. I’m going to LJ cut them for you guys to look and please feel free to give your input.

Had some fun with the kids today. We ended up watching some Eerie Indiana this evening before going off to scouts.. that was kind of a nice downtime relaxing.




OK, so now the rant. I watched Cyborgs Attack on Sci Fi this weekend. I refuse to call that bastardization by the name they are claiming for it. It is in no way that show. But here’s just a few of my thoughts…

Cyborgs Attack:
1. Why wait around past the 33 minutes to see if the Cylons show up. Keep jumping, get ahead! You are sooooooo going to need it!
2. It’s been five days and you haven’t figured out yet to cycle your crew??? Give me a break
3. You are running through nuclear radioactive planet from the cylons and your partner who you sent away with refugees just happens to find you. And save you from imminent death by SexBot. And you don’t think something is hinky???
4. So in Wather Boomer on the ship has pretty much figured out “Hey, something is wrong with me.” And she tells her boyfriend. And neither think to tell anyone else. And she can fight her programming? What the heck? So what does this mean?
5. Sooo still gotta say it… Buck-Ette… GRRRRRRRR
6. Let’s put my coffee cup on a stack of rather important looking papers.
7. World’s Worst Camera Work Ever. Seriosuly. Caramon and Joram could do a better job.
8. We have FTL travel, we can live for years in space BUT:
a: We still use photographs
b: We still use paper
c: We still use file folders written on with Sharpee
d: We still have dot matrix printers
e: We are somehow taping/adhering photographs onto the walls of the spaceship of lost loved ones because there is no better way
f: We still use cheap 10 dollar phones from the local Walmart to communicate
e: We still are killing ourselves with cigarettes
