Picture 348


Turns out some of the pokemon cards I gave one of the teacher's at the daycare have "gone missing". It just so happens that the ones that went missing were the strongest and most powerful of the cards I gave her. If I wasn't such a nice guy, I might be suspicious.

Not only do I walk away with a shot glass chess set, I also order an awesome drink that came with cotton candy in the glass (before it was dissolved) and I see two co-workers get Ice'd. Yeah, it was a good staff party!

What really peeves me off about taking pictures is that what you want in focus isn't always what's in focus. Take this picture for instance. James is very sharp and clearly in focus, while Brandi is a little blurry due to not being in focus. On the little screen showing how the picture came out on the back of the camera I couldn't see this, since it's small. Just annoying, and something I have to be much more aware of.

Complete and total AHDH kind of night. Wasn't really able to focus on much of much, which isn't all that great when you're trying to run a game. I can't remember how the earlier part of the day was since I wasn't paying attending due to distracting lights and forgot.

I have the best gift for re-gifting ever. Well, not as cool a chainsaw sharpener or a frame picture of yourself, but still pretty neat.

Note to self: Next week remember things like... hat, gloves, maybe even scarf. Watching a bunch of kids run around a yard for a couple hours is a little cold when you don't have these things. Normally I'm fine in the cold, but I'm not usually standing in the middle of a playground while children run around.

The slide show was done! That said, it literally took all day to get it usable. Literally everything that could go wrong went wrong trying to get this thing to work. It made it an incredibly long day, considering I was at the daycare from 7-5:30, then ran off for class in the evening!

My neighbours are getting a gasline put into their home. They've been heading their home on oil this whole time. Oh man the noise and commotion involved in connecting a home to natural gas! Why the heck wouldn't they have done this when the ground wasn't frozen?

Starting to feel the crunch! Need to get this slide show done by Wednesday night or else there's going to be a significant lack of one at the Christmas Party for the parents and children. I've really enjoyed doing it, but man these guys need to put some order to their pictures!

Picture 339


Same subject for a picture as yesterday, just from across the room as opposed to right in front of it. I've been using my zoom lens lately instead of the 50mm. I notice a significant decrease in the sharpness of image quality when using the room up close. I have to keep reminding myself... don't use the zoom for close shots! Don't be dumb, go get the 50mm!
