Day 324 of 365 days.
So today’s picture really has nothing to do with my day. I had just been wanting to blow bubbles in a pic for a while. And since yesterday I was blowing smoke and the day before I was blowing my brains out, it seemed like a good time.
Today was Steph’s sexist book club meeting. Like many women all over the world, once a month, Steph gets together with female friends of hers to discuss some novel they’ve all been reading and drink wine. None of them actually seem to like book club, but they do it anyway. I actually would probably enjoy the concept of book club, but they’re all sexist and they won’t allow boys. Sooner or later, they’re probably going to find a way to take away my right to vote.
Anyway, this was her month to host, which meant that I had to get up early and help her clean the house, and theoretically disappear from my own home so that the crazy women could take it over. I actually had some other things to do today though, so it wasn’t a big deal. But I swear one of these days I’m going to refuse to leave, and just walk around in my underwear the entire time they’re here and scratch myself.
Anyway, after finishing the book club cleaning, I went to meet with a model who’s going to appear in the tarot deck, then I went to meet with a bunch of local photographers about a show I’ve been invited to present work in. Then I went shopping for a few photo props (which hopefully will be appearing in tomorrow’s picture) and came home to blow some bubbles for this shot.
Then I discovered the absolute worst possible thing about not having my computer for the week while its in the shop. I’m using Steph’s laptop (my old one) to keep up with 365, and apparently my old copy of Photoshop which is installed here doesn’t know how to read Camera Raw files from my camera. I made a friend convert it for me, but this is going to be a superduper major pain in the ass for the week. I may go so far as installing my newer version on this machine until I get it back.
I was about to type "god, I hate life here," but then I looked at the picture again and oooh! Bubbles! 🙂
How fun. : )
@adayinthelife: It really was!
Awesome. : )
"But I swear one of these days I’m going to refuse to leave, and just walk around in my underwear the entire time they’re here and scratch myself."
I’m sorry, but that is really, really funny.
Yay…..I love bubbles.
Can’t wait to see what you’re gonna blow next.
Heh.
this is more powerful than your "blowing your brains out " shot.
I’d very much like to see a self-portrait of you walking around in your underwear scratching yourself complete with aghast looking book club ladies! 🙂
Huh. Bubbles show up much better against a dark background than a blue sky. Who knew?
@adayinthelife & SU365: Hey! I look hot in my underwear. I think they might quite enjoy it.
@PhotoKat: Well, like I said… I do have an idea for today… you’re welcome to come help. 😉
@ms. Tea: You think? I wasn’t even really thinking about it. I just knew it’d be fun.
@MegaBee: well, umm… I did…
Bubbles are fun!
@Cirkusprinsesse: They so are!
aw Man! Why didn’t I think of bubbles first? Nuts! Super cool pic Chris!
@lrayholly: hey. Go for it. It’s not like own the trademark on bubbles..
