Time Consuming Painting

I decided to try and draw a tribute to fall using hippaint, the drawing program for the t-mobile sidekick II. It is so time consuming painting with it. I think it is more intended to paint on top of photos or stamp dates and info on them.

It reminds me of "painting" on the commodore 64, although it does have a nice history palette like photoshop. Images can be up to 640 x640 and you can import photographic data from the camera utility. However, in this case I only used 120 x 90 with no foto, just to get a real sense of cell phone minimalist art.

Random Seafood

I was clearing out my phone for some christmas pics and found these seafood pics. Wegman's sea scallops and Casa Di Pizza fried calamari. I have eaten so much calamari this week, I could have consumed one giant sea squid.

(e:matthew) and I are making bacon wrapped scallops for new year's when my parents and Nonna come for dinner. That is our favorite food.

Muppet Cards and UPCs

I finally have enough bluetooth dongles for all of my computers. Now I just need a bluetooth phone, a bluetooth gps and a bluetooth camera.

Jingle Bells

My mother bought Nonna a robotic snowman and dog reindeer. It sings and dances kind of like the animatronics from That place that became Major Magics or like the singing bass my father has

Santa's Army

What a great day. Everyone is in such a cheerful mood. Luckily, in today's consumer christmas culture I was able to feel better by purchasing a 100 plastic santas, at $4.99 each.

Snow Storm Hits

Everything is crazy today. I went out with (e:matthew) , chris and his mom till about 1PM at this bar in North Tonawanda called Half Blue Moon Bar on Wheatfield road.

I hadn't been to NT in a long time. One of chris' mom coworkers worked the bar. I decided to risk the mad cow and (e:matthew) and I got bacon wrapped steak.

So it was at the bar in the middle of nowhere that we learned about the asteriod of April, 13 2029. A 1 in 300 chance isn't so slim, right? Anyways, seeing as the earth spins pretty regularly, and they can pinpoint it down to April 13, 2029, then they can probably guess real well where on earth it is going to hit.

(e:matthew) and I are going to film a movie about it. It is going to be our first collaborative video project.

On another my aunt decided to have christmas despite illness. So Nonna can't go because she is 90 and the flu would be bad. I also can't deal with the possibility of being sick as I have so much to do in the next week with (e:terry) 's sister coming to visit. (E:southernyankee) coming to visit, chris still here, and then (e:twisted) coming. So (e:terry) and I are going to spend it with Nonna. It's also a lot better because of the weather. Nonna lives in our hood and we have to go their in the morning anyway - so I'd rather get stuck there than far away. (e:mike) wants to kill me I am sure. In his opinion I am ruining christmas eve.

The car keeps sliding on the ice, it is so scary.
