I didn't take any pictures at the wedding and only took a few at the reception; all of which I will post soon. In the meantime, here is the one picture that really stands out from any of the others I took.

awwww



*sniff*

In response to your comment Paul (on my previous post), I didn't take any pics at the party. e:pyrcedgrrl got a few with her phone which I just snagged from her. They happen to be of you. Your outfit was hilarious. What were you again, a "Christmas Ghost" or 'Ghost of Christmas' ? Nice use of Christmas decorations.

How many e-strippers does it take to fill a photo booth?

having fun with e:kangarooboi


I'd love to see the culmination of all those photos taken, and how many people did not realize that Timika and Rory get a dvd copy of all the pics/craziness taken that night.

PS. e:drew- I have your set of pictures. It was left behind on the table near the booth. I'd like to get them to you, so please let me know how best to do that.

I'm kind of in the mood for drinks on and around Allen Street area.. I'm thinking Cathode Ray. It has come up in conversations a few times in as many days, and now I am feeling the need to embark on a little trip out there. Usually if I am out that way, I am on the other side of Allen. It has been awhile for any of it and I would like to see who is out and what is new, different and the same.

You know how that goes.

So, does Cathode still make super strong drinks in those giant glass canning jars? Mmmmm

Is Fugazi still open (on Franklin)? Would be nice to start off with a Martini.

I'm thinking Saturday night.

What are ya'll up to? If in the mood to get social-drunk-crazy-whatever- perhaps make it an unofficial-semi official event?

Supposed to be not freezing that day, so, I say lets get out there!

Hadn't heard this song in some time and just happened to catch it on the radio while driving earlier (what a great day, right?!). Turned up the volume, window was cracked to let in the breezy warmth and I danced a little behind the wheel. Good stuff.

R&B artist Gwen McCrae, singing with her sultry voice, "Rockin' Chair"

The song is from 1975.
The video appears to be a 2008 performance.

Rarely do I post lyrics and today is one of those times.

Rockin' Chair

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Let's get in on; come to me baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here

Let your arms shelter me from all hurt and pain
Light my heart with your everlasting flame

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here
Let's get it on; come to me baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here

Rock me gently;
Make me feel like a cloud in the sky
Whisper softly;
Let my heart take wing and fly

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Let's get it on; come to me honey
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here

Just rock me baby
In my rocking chair, baby
All night long till the morning comes
Just you, baby
Just rock me hun; rock me baby
Till the midnight hour
In my rocking chair
All night long
Come on baby, sexy baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Come on baby, sexy honey
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Rock me baby
[ Rockin' Chair Lyrics on ]

Just a reminder e:theecarey,50230 that if you want direction on something to do, then give the following a whirl:

Fugazi 9pm until.. ?
(503 Franklin between North and Allen)
I'm going to hang out there for a little while, have a drink (I'm ordering a Martini for sure!), some conversation, laughs and what not and then...

Cathode Ray/Allen Street bar crawl/stumble, for more of the same!

weeee!

Stop out and say hi, stay for a drink, you know what to do!

Not sure how late I will actually be out, but that is the loose plans for the night. yay!

See you soon!

Love cats? geeks? farm equipment? "furries"?
Need your mate to be interested in the same?
Then check out these dating niches for the extra discerning..



Moving on...

Saturday was fun, thanks for coming out!

My ears were a bit deaf and my voice hoarse by the end of the night; I forgot how fluid conversations can be a challenge in bars. Nonetheless we managed.

I vaguely remember being thoughtful over an existential moment at Frizzies.

Got home late, crawled into bed by 5ish, and slept on on off till noon. The rest of the day I felt fine other than a little sleepy and generally lacked motivation to do anything despite the sunny day. I vegged out and watched a few movies and chatted on the phone; two things I rarely do. A restful day even if a bit of a boring day.


Now it is Monday and there is so much to do (as with anybody reading this). It is the day that kicks me in the ass towards identifying all that needs to be done and usually puts me back on the track from anything that was left behind last week (or completely derailed over the weekend). I'm always amazed at how many emails come in on Monday mornings.

hmmm, I'm thinking of heading out to a comfy coffee laden hot spot to do some work and/or writing/reading. Where and when will depend on my focus. Damn, coffee sounds so good right now.

But first, a walk.It has been refreshing to walk through the park kicking through the fallen leaves. I haven't been doing the gym thing in some time, so at the very least, a walk is part of my daily routine. But I need to do so much more, so gym time will be made priority in my daily schedule. Not sure what has been keeping me from it as it feels so good to go.

This week I abide to decrease the lazy, increase the productive; to cliche my self and go from derailed to back on track. *nods*

Finally taking a look at the assortment of pictures on my camera. Of those that I want to post, they need to be resized first, so I will work on a few at a time.

I had already pretty much forgotten about the rainbow pictures taken on Hallowedding; I know some of you saw it too.

And here we have the rainbow before the reception as seen from North and Delaware:

It was a rather nice to see a sizable arc to the rainbow tather than just bits of it.

It's cold outside

and the sky is amazingly clear. Nights like this remind me that I would like a telescope and a better understanding of the star clusters. As much as I am into the sciences, and just looking out at the universe, I haven't learned to recognize more than a few constellations. I try, but then I forget.

While not as clear as some places, my little neck of the woods has little light pollution. Looking up, you'd likely be in awe standing in my driveway right now

and freezing your ass off, too.

Good night!

Sometimes change is good..

sometimes it is downright annoying.

(as with alliteration)

Yahoo!


as an avid use of most things Yahoo!, most specifically I use it for email, I was displeased with their "new look" a few months ago. the layout is intuitive enough, but is more image and module heavy. Fortunately, I could go back to the "classic view" by scrolling to the very bottom and clicking on the tiny text that allowed me to go back to what I prefer. The classic view is/was more scarce in features which I find visually pleasing.

Then a week ago, a banner warning exclaimed that the new yahoo will fully take over ie; the more visually busy and cumbersome look. Not horrible, just not my choice for user experience.

So I didn't believe that it would fully take over..

until today.

yuck!

Yaboo!



but I will get over it.



although, a little love for the yahoo has died today.





anyone use Yahoo?
like or dislike the official change?
