Not Ready Yet

I have three rolls of 35mm film that are ready to be developed. I don’t want to ship them out yet though. I have that new/ancient medium format camera now and I want to wait until I finish a test roll so that I can be sure it works okay. I just want to bundle all of this film into one order with the developing lab, you know? One order, one shipment. I just have to take the new camera out somewhere and use it. I only get 12 shots in a roll. I should be able to get that done quickly, right?

Oh the film shooting drama.

Calendar

I don’t like what the calendar does to me at this time of year. We’re so close to the holidays that I just stop being able to deal with the days that still lay between me and the big dates.

We are currently seven days away from xmas and 14 days away from New Years. That means 13 days until New Years Eve, but NYE is a work day for me so that’s pretty screwy in general.

As an added bonus, we are 38 days away from the next vacation too. I sure hope it’s nice and warm in Florida in January. Last time we visited in January it was cold-ish in the morning and warm in the afternoons. I can live with that.

With the possible exception of anything that might be added to any one of the many piles of xmas gifts in the next few days, everything that isn’t for my wife or for a Secret Santa has been wrapped. I’ll have it all done by the weekend, with oodles of time to spare before the big day arrives.

I just want it to get here. I want Santa to arrive and unlawfully break into the house do his dirty work. I want the kids home with us, even if it is just for a short time, and I want to see the niece and nephews and the siblings and the in-laws on both sides of the family. I just want it to get here already. Is that too much to ask?

Busy Morning

Back to work today, and it’s been a busy morning. There were a lot of things to unpack after the long weekend. Nothing bad, just lots of emails and things to discuss. The morning has flown by. Here we are, just after noon, and I haven’t posted anything to the blog yet! Insanity!

It is December. I need to come up with a music project for his month. I’ll probably get back to the old re-recording project thing. Who knows. Maybe I’ll roll that into February’s RPM Challenge somehow. Hmmm… things to ponder in the coming weeks.

Now that it is December I can officially say that we’re going back to Disney World next month. We’ve got that going for us at least. It’s almost time to pay homage to The Mouse again.

Until then just play your damn guitar, Robert.

Broken Record

I sound like a broken record here but I need to find the time and energy to go out and shoot photos. I have a new camera to play with and I haven’t used at all yet. What am I waiting for?

Sunday morning? I am going to be busy tomorrow morning, so that’s out. The next day though is Sunday. Maybe? Probably not, but maybe. We’ll see. It’s gettin’ cold out there, kids. If I don’t get out now I won’t be up for it for months.

Jealous

Jen and I just watched a TV show were a bunch of terrible people took a trip to the beach in San Diego. I went through a bunch of photos from our honeymoon that I took at the same beach. At least I thought it was the same beach but on further review it might not have been.

Anyway, we were both super jealous and wanted to go back to San Diego but we can’t. Our next two trips are already planned and they are both to Florida. San Diego is going to have to wait years. Bummer.

Though, our Florida trips are still pretty good. I mean, other than the state being a breeding ground for nazis and all.
