If you know me in real life, then you know I say "I'm sorry" a lot. Not as much as  jayspec  , but certainly on the top ten "I'm sorry" sayers list.   My father, on the other hand, never apologizes. For anything.  He sent me a box of books without asking. The box fell apart and all the books were lost. The books were the entire Trixie Belden series, which is now out of print. Some of the individual...

Happy Birthday, jayspec !

A few people ( jayspec  ,  mollyx  ,  yokie  ,  jamies_garden  ,  maisfeeka  ) know Ben & Shawna. Ben was one of our best men, and Shawna is his wife. They had twins last week, very prematurely. They set up a blog . I created an LJ feed for it ( benshawnatwins  ). I figured that at least the New England people might know other people who would want to  know...

Hello, Flist! I know I have several photographers here ( meiran , jayspec , priceofamemory , peopleareshapes I'd love it if you'd weigh in! : ) ) I want to buy a DSLR. I am naturally having the Canon v. Nikon debate. It should be noted that all of my other equipment is Canon, not that it really has any bearing on which camera I buy, I don't have a film SLR or anything...

I have Vista on my test system at work, and I LOATHE it. It is just awful! So, that cements my decision to get a Mac . And nppyinzer says that when we get our tax refund back (gotta love the adoption tax credit) that I can get the computer that I want. Now, why do I need a new computer?, you might ask. Well, the one that I currently use is a desktop that I bought back in 2000. I saved...

It was labor day weekend, so I already had off on Monday, but I decided to make it really worthwhile and take off last Friday too. w00t! Thursday night I drove down to LBI to hang with the fams. Got some reading and some color on Friday. the weather was perfect. Saturday, I did a tour of the Jersey shore and visited my mom in Toms River, then went to see my cousin Melissa at her job and have dinner...

So yesterday was long. Slow at work as i was flitting back and forth between projects, then went to go find dinner up by rehearsal. Ate at cafe 71. Not bad, spent about $12, but at least i wasn't hungry later. Also sat to read in the park there.
