High School – Roll 9

Blog, Photography

Whositwhatsit? I’m pretty sure that the was the name of this assignment. Find an object and shoot it from different angles and then other people had to guess what it was. I think mine was guessing in about 5 seconds or less. (It’s a bike rack!) I genuinely hated this assignment. I remember having so […]

Photographing an Eclipse on 35mm Film

Blog, Photography

Recently, it came to my attention that the 2024 solar eclipse will be happening next month. On a whim, I decided to take a day off, and make a day of it. I have been itching for some time to relax, and celestial events are a good catalyst for relaxation, in my opinion. However, I […]

High School – Roll 8

Blog, Photography

There was no assignment for this roll, and to be honest I don’t really know why I took it. Likely, some younger form of me was trying to make the camera part of his personality and was bringing it along wherever he went. Who knows? The photos themselves are blurry but an aggressive kind of […]

High School – Roll 7

Blog, Photography

These photos are all bad. Really, I had to pull up the negatives to make sure I didn’t make a mistake while scanning these and sure enough, they are all bad. It looks like I had some weird light leak or development issue because every single photo has some sort of rippling along the strip. […]

High School – Roll 6

Blog, Photography

Another roll, another group of photos that I am not thrilled with 18 years after I took them. What I am finding out is that I wasn’t great about keeping my negatives in order in high school. I wish I could jump back in time to give a brief PowerPoint presentation to my younger self […]

Going to be a little late on the comic tonight. A friend came into town who I haven’t seen since December and it distracted me. My apologies.

Point Microsoft


Blog

I made a crack at Microsoft the other day. I get frustrated with their software at times. The problem is, I rely on them. Everything I have works on Windows and it would take far too long and possibly too expensive to get things running the way I want on another OS. I said something […]

Chrome knight to take down established empires


Blog

I came into work this morning and I booted up my computer to find some interesting news. I always have a tab open with Twitter up, that way its there when I need it. I also found that ‘Trending Topics’ is the only way that I get news when the student paper is not being […]

Resignation


Blog

We have a special today, tin signs are only $15. This is a common refrain of my boss at the Poster Master on State Street. I always wondered why no one ever called him out on this. It is not a special if, like the faded signs around the store stated, that the signs are […]

Crockpot


Blog

I am a fan of the Crockpot. Whoever the person was that invented it, I would double high-five them while doing a triple-hypothetical-five with them also. The ease at which I can make a meal is amazing. And since my mom gave me an old Crockpot cookbook, well I have a ton of recipes of […]

Intro to Parenting


Fiction

Richard and Laura had been married for three years. Their life was enjoyable; Richard worked at law firm downtown as an accountant and Laura waited tables at the diner four blocks from their home. The house they lived in wasn’t large, nor was it small; it was a ranch with two bedrooms and one bath […]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I posted a new story today. I have to admit that I am quite happy with how this one turned out. It certainly received better responses during workshop than I expected. I had the feeling that I might be a decent writer after all. It’s another long […]

I’m growing an employment beard. It is similar to an unemployment beard but instead of not shaving because I have no reason to look good, I don’t shave because I am working three jobs and don’t have the time.
