2010 Photo-A-Day: Day 16

I guess it's official. My photo-a-day experiment has completely derailed. I still want to keep taking pictures, but for a couple of days pics were not turning out (bad lighting with a bad camera) or I was actually not leaving the house. I took this on Friday when I went to lunch with my buddy Tyler at Islands in Mira Mesa.

2010 Photo-A-Day: Day Eleven

Day Eleven of the Photo-A-Day, and I missed another day. Oh well. Today I played around with my thumbnail camera and took a ton of pictures while I was out and about looking for lunch. Strangely I found I really liked this little picture I took out in front of my house when I got home. It's that weird sensation that you can travel the world looking for what you want, only to return home and realize you always had it.

2010 Photo-A-Day: Day Nine

The 2010 Photo-A-Day experiment continues. I skipped the 7th and 8th because I did not see anything to take photos of, and because I forgot my camera. Today's picture is the sunset from my front porch. The rest of the country can suck it.

2010 Photo-A-Day: Day Six

The 2010 Photo-a-day experiment continues, and to be fair, I already missed a day. In case you were not paying attention, obviously I wasn't, I missed yesterday the 5th. Shrug. Today's picture is of the San Diego Downtown skyline from the land side. Most of the time you see majestic pictures from the water side of the skyline. But I know a spot near my house that affords me a gorgeous site and a great place to read a book.

2010 Photo-A-Day: Day Four

Okay so today's picture is kind of interesting. I took the thumb camera with me to run errands today and tried to snap shots of interesting things I saw while I was driving. The photos came out pretty good considering but not a lot of them took. I guess moving made the camera not take pictures. This is the one I liked best because I was trying to take a picture of the Kensington 100 Years sign over by Ponce's Mexican Restaurant in Kensington. I ended up almost missing the sign completely and taking a picture of the freeway sign. You can still just barely see the Ken sign on the right hand side of the picture.

2010 Photo-A-Day: Day Three

After a long day of helping Matt and his Dad work on the garage, cleaning the kitchen, and then watching the Chargers beat the Redskins, I sat back and enjoyed a couple of beers and played some Xbox 360.

It's finished! Or is it?

Day 30 of the Blog a Day. Really? The last day? I almost made it the entire month dropping a blog every day. I missed this Saturday, and had plenty of time to get it in, just forgot. What a month November was. It just breezed by. Now I know why we tend to slow down at the end of the year. It's like everyone wants to just savor the time we have just a little bit longer. When I was a kid the Holidays meant time off from school and seeing family. Nowadays it pretty much means the same thing. Which is funny because for 8 years in radio I considered the Holidays, at least some part of it, as a time that I would have to work. In fact as a weekend DJ on Channel 933 it meant that was one of my few chances to really shine. Always sucked at some point though because late December I would get sick and have to do radio shows for 4 hours with a barely functioning voice. There was some days in my radio days that I would only talk for the 4 hours I was on the radio and then not talk again for almost 24 hours to conserve my pipes. Ah those were the days. To think I am still shocked that I was voted "Most Talkative" in high school.

And I think I may keep this blog a day going, see how far I can make it into December.

Almost made it

Day 28 of the blog a day comes a day late. I almost made it the entire month blogging something every day. Between homework and goofing off on Saturday I completely forgot. So Day 28 comes on Day 29. Dammit. On that note, everyone should watch a documentary called Who Killed The Electric Car? Just watched it again on Planet Green. You need to know what money from Big Oil companies has caused in our Country.

What are you Thankful for?

Day 26 of the Blog a Day. What are you thankful for? I mean that's the whole point of Thanksgiving right? We give thanks. I am thankful to all the friends and family I am lucky enough to have. I really do have some of the best people anyone could ask for in their lives. I regret that my entire family cannot be together all the time, but I am transient in nature and truly believe that family is what you make of it. Whomever you are with, make them family. Or, love the one's your with. Happy Thanksgiving.

T-Day Success!

Day 22 of the Blog a Day, and I can report that the Thanksgiving before Thanksgiving party was a success. It was really an odd mix of friends this year. Not in a bad way. My roommates Matt and Cindy had their friends, who I have come to know over the years. And my roommate Christin had her friends who I have come to know the last few months. Only a few of my actual friends showed up, but everyone had something going on. The turkey turned out phenomenal. Everyone brought something to share, and everyone WAY over ate. We even ended up watching Star Trek at the end of the evening. All in all a great success and a lot of fun. Can't wait for next year, mark your calendars. Oh and of course the ACTUAL Thanksgiving is this Thursday. Sweet.
