My webcam comes with these fun features where you can add special effects to your head. Just what I need - to have an afro. But it does accomplish one thing - it amuses me. Endlessly.
Unfortunately Logitech quickcam comes with a downside, for some lucky few such as myself these features seem to disable in actual chat. i did temporarily fix it after uninstalling it and downloading a special version of it, but some automatic upgrade it does on it's own put an end to that. Anyhow, i can STILL use it if I were to take shots or record myself.
Here's what I've been doing for the past 10 minutes
First came boredom. Hmm, what to do??
I know, i'll go rope a cow! No, frankly my darling I don't give a damn.

CURRENT FAVORITE NEW TV SHOW "The Big Bang Theory"
Sheldon: Teams are traditionally named after fierce creatures, thus intimidating one's opponent. Koothrappali: Then we could be the Bengal Tigers. Sheldon: Poor choice—gram for gram, no animal exceeds the relative fighting strength of the army ant. Koothrappali: Maybe so, but you can't incinerate a Bengal tiger with a magnifying glass.

RECENT URGE To take up Oil Painting as a Hobby. I go through this urge every so often and eventually chicken out because I have no talent and know nada about oil painting
WHAT'S FOR SUPPER? Stouffers Lasagna and Garlic Bread (But damn, they have the BEST lasagna!)
MOST PROUD OF: I'm using the treadmill more often
I started to vlog about my sunday morning, but nobody wants to see it. Unfortunately the batteries to my cam died and I didn't get to take hardly any footage of my trip to the nursery. Most of it is me driving and a few shots inside. Exciting huh? lol Maybe I'll put it up just to put something on my vlog, as depressing and sad as it is that I haven't kept it updated.
We're supposed to get storms the rest of the week, what a crazy storm season it is this year. Hopefully no sirens!
I went a little nuts yesterday and bought $30 worth of scratch off tickets..lol I never buy scratch offs, i have no idea what got in to me. Tonite I have some tickets for the mega million drawing as it's over $100 million
Please god, with sugar on top, i swear i'll be good!
Had another difficult day. One of the women in my team is really confusing to me. Besides the time she was accusing me of giving her more work than everyone else which I proved to be false, she accused someone of deleting her work. Did I mention this before? She has this habit of muttering under her breath where you can make out certain phrases. So I can tell she's being accusatory in a semi-audible way very intentionally. Then today she was confronting another girl as to why she modified something on a spreadsheet that was her work.
The girl didn't, as I can testify to because the assignment i gave her was to initial certain tasks completed for me as that's part of my job and i was giving her something to do. I also highlight incomplete required fields on the spreadsheet and send periodic emails to the team to let them know they need to review items in yellow and complete required fields. I do this every so often because our spreadsheet is used for reporting and I want to be sure it's kept up to date with accurate information. She saw she had a bunch of stuff in yellow and said "someone took out my numbers". The girl she was saying this to said "I didn't do it". and then she said "Well i'm not saying YOU did it" and went on, in a very agitated manner. I said "I highlight what is blank". She said "How can you highlight what information i've already entered"?
"Because it was blank. Sometimes you guys leave fields blank and I go back in to update, it's a collective error that everyone on the team does from time to time". She cut me off, stood up holding her files and said "HOW is it not updated when i've updated it on my files?" Jesus
It was a blind accusation. It bothers me because the other girl was immediately uncomfortable feeling she was being accused. The situation defused, only taking to this lady makes her more agitated so she spent the next hour muttering crap under her breath I could half hear. Then She wanted to speak to management. Go for it lady, I wonder who has the time to be going in and deleting petty stuff you did..to prove what? I don't keep track of that stuff. She is paranoid and thinks someone is always messing with her. I have no idea what to even do with that. But it makes everyone invoved uncomfortable.
The worst part is she wears earphones but i don't think she actually is listening to anything. She does it as a way to ignore certain people. And someone could breeze by, whisper something and she'll whirl around and respond. But at the end of the day I say Goodnight loudly (knowing she's got the earphones on). Then i pause in front of her desk where she can see me in her peripheral vision and say goodnight again. She ignores me.
I miss my old cubemate
Instaed i end up sitting next to someone who who thinks everyone has it in for her and talks out loud about it to nobody.
I read up about these alleged "bubble nests" that my fish never made. Myth? Urban legend? Apparently it's to attract females. And normally they don't build them if they're sick. Kramer isn't sick. So did this mean he was gay?
I was pretty excited this morning when I caught him. At first I thought maybe the filter blew the bubbles back there, but I realized they were heavily stacked and he was sucking up air from the surface and making his nest bigger. He found the one spot in the tank with the least current.
He seemed to get territorial when I got the camera near his nest so I could only film him doing it from the front of the tank. One sight said they mostly make them at night in the dark so you'd be lucky to catch him doing it.
This is why i'm never going to leave this apartment. read #22. IN FULL. Yeah, that's right, you have to give 30 days notice of your death.
Mia's look is priceless
A coworker gave me this keychain today.
Yesterday I had to have seen the most disgusting display of car ornament ever.
Truck balls. Yep, giant ball sack hanging from the underneath carriage of a pickup truck. I've seen it all now. No bumper sticker or fake baseball in the windshield could top THIS
Yes, I finished early! Taking on 7 photo's was not as challenging as the actual topic. Unfortunately I don't have any real "quality" shots, I think I was more focused on being able to accomplish the task of photographing all the 7 deadly sins, which was put forth by Graham's blog.
So here they are:
ENVY
My cousin's little girl on a swing.
The envy of youth
GREED
Bank of America Building
The greed of wealth
GLUTTONY A pizza I ordered all for myself
Gluttony of excessive eating
SLOTH
My cat laying on a treadmill
Thought this was a great example of how we are more likely to be lazy even if given opportunity
LUST
Mannequins at a retail store
No dignity even for the mannequins, who without their heads and adorned with sexy lingerie, display how easily they can be objectified. Ever noticed how manniquins are now shapely figures with large breasts and lack of heads? Even in the mall you will see them in skimpy lingerie in the front window for all to see. Great parallel to how our culture depicts women in a lustful manner
PRIDE
Unecessarily large vehicle parked next to an average size car
I love this because where i live, pride is reflected in the cars driven. It seems it's not the luxery cars that signal importance anymore, but the oversized vehicles, as it is no longer about wealth but dominance. These cars ultimately make thei owner feel superior in towering over everyone around them. It is very common to see them here, and their negative attitude when driving also reflects their perception of their self importance
WRATH
Magazine shots of the events of September 11
Wrath as defined by those who carried out the attacks to those who became overwhelmed with managing their emotions thereafter, and the vengeance that so readily took so many under it's power.
