Photo.A.Day III

Apples are lovely.  I don't know if any of you have ever had honey crisp apples, but if you get the chance, they're divine.  Most of them come the size of a child's head, and they're always perfect.  A good friend of mine released his band's first album a few weeks ago, and I'm jamming out to their music.  I remember a night a long time ago in the back seat of a car (get your head out of the gutter, it wasn't like that) listening to him sing "Jeni why don't you ever answer your phone" and hearing the ocean pound in the background.  Those were the nights.  Kudos to him for finally recording a full album and best of luck to them.

Thinking of people that have come and gone in my lifetime isn't always the easiest.  I have fond memories of everyone I've come to call friends or more, but nostalgia isn't always the easiest thing to feel.  Rose colored glasses aside, I don't dwell on the crappy things people do, and rather try to remember why we were close in the first place.  What about you?  Can you think back fondly, or is it easier to remain looking forward?

Today's picture.a.day was easy, as I stayed in bed for a good portion of my morning.

Your Bed (before you leave it)
I chose to take this one just as I was leaving my covers, the sheets still nice and toasty, beckoning me back.  Have a fantastic day, folks.

I Are Internets Guru

Jason is getting closer and closer to the grand opening of their new business.  I'm really excited for him.  Sometimes, though, I have this unnerving feeling that agreeing to designing their website, I bit off far more than I can chew.  Pessimistic?  Possibly.  I'm never very confident in my own abilities. On the suggestion of my best friend and computer guru (I swear he speaks their language... all of them) I am using Drupal, and it has saved my life.  Dreamweaver is amazing, but this program makes integrating everything I could possibly want to do so much easier.  They will have a website, an online store (eventually), forums and a blog.  RSS feed so I can keep the environmentalists happy, community calendar, scheduling available online.  I'm linking them to Twitter and FaceBook so they can keep a free advertising stream going. Ready for the question of the day?  Is is bad of me to feel that compensation should be part of maintain...

The Box

There has been much debate about The Box in my family.  While I have thoroughly convinced Olyvia that it was given to me by a pirate fairy for services rendered (she was obsessed with pirate fairies that year, and it worked), not everybody in my family is so easily convinced.  Let me explain. The true origin of The Box is not as exciting.  My ex, Donnie, was very good at gift giving, and I had chosen to destroy a good number of my treasures because of a lack of a place to store them.  The Box came from him, for my birthday, about 15 years ago.  In it are letters from friends and long ago relationships, memories of nights out, concerts, gifts given to me by friends I no longer speak to, amorous letters I don't want found and read.  The log from my grandpa's feeding schedule when he was in hospice.  School memorabilia from college.  You get the gist.  I've been able to add to it throughout the years, and enjoy going through its contents o...

Stained Glass: Part I

Stained Glass: Part I The room seems to swim in crimson. I'm not talking your average red here. Think along the lines of blood, brightly glistening, newly hit with oxygen to give it that morbid cherry hue, and you've got the color I am internally trying to name. It's not an appetizing choice of decor for any place of business, let alone a restaurant of stature such as the place my companions and I are currently seated. The place seems to walk a peculiar line of morose and extravagant, in some ways balancing, in others twisting one direction or the other to the extreme. The booth itself is comfortable, luxuriant even. The leather of the seats plays part in the carnival hues of the place, as it is made from vermilion-tinted leather. It has the oddest of textures to it, as if new and broken in at the same time. We could have been the first and the hundred thousandth guests to have been seated at this table. I have never gotten a feeling of life from a piece of furni...
