More Playing Time

I was able to sneak in my full day’s worth of exercise after work tonight. It was borderline miraculous and my legs are killing me.

I also snuck in more guitar. I put rhythm tracks onto one song and leads onto two.

Bonus. Now I am going to hang out and wait for my step daughter to come home. She’s on her way.

Bonus indeed!

4/365

Oh yeah, and I also uploaded those photos I forgot to upload this morning before I left for work. That second one is 4/365 for the photo a day thing. Let’s just call it a complete day and pat ourselves on the back a little.

Photo Fail

The web based Flickr photo uploader works in two steps. First you chose the files you want to upload. It preps them. You can tell the uploader which albums to add your new photos to, and what tags to give them, and what permissions, and what groups, and what people, and all sorts of fun stuff like that. When everything is ready you click upload and BOOM, the photos are uploaded to your account.

During this morning’s surprise guitar playing I took a picture for the photo a day thing using my mirrorless camera. I added them to the uploader, added some tags, picked an album to add them to, marked the permissions as being viewable by the public…

…and then promptly forgot to click the upload button. Oops.

On the off chance that something keeps me from getting home at a decent hour tonight (nothing will, I’m just doing what the boy scout motto said and being prepared) I took a picture in the kitchenette at work just to make sure my photo-a-day-butt is covered.

Enjoy… or something.

Turn Around

I left the driveway for work at 7:40 or so. I drove until about 8:10 and then something came up at home and I had to turn around and head back. It took less than 10 minutes to get home.

And now you understand how Boston traffic works once Labor Day is over.

At least I took today’s photo a day pic. 3/365.

Labor Day Car Music

I made it out for some car music this morning. I recorded vocal parts for five songs and I also drew a crowd.

There were also a lot of actual people around, just walking around the parking lot getting their daily exercise in. Leave me alone, people! Don’t listen to me singing! Don’t listen to me singing, damn it!

Who Needs an Oven

Really, an air fryer, an induction thingie, and a toaster oven. Who needs the big kitchen oven?

Jen does. She’s roasting veggies in the oven and cooking quinoa on the stove while I cook chicken in the air fryer and instant mashed potatoes (heaven’s gift, indeed) on the induction thingie on the other side of the kitchen.

We are kind of a team in this house.

Restart

It’s September 1st again. On the last five September 1sts I kicked off a new Photo a Day Challenge. This year is no different.

It just dawned on me that as I start the sixth consecutive year, I am technically half way through a Photo a Decade Challenge.

I am such a nerd.

Just for luck, this was an alternate.
