It's an advance copy (otherwise known as an "ARC") for a book that won't be out until September. And it's signed! Squeeee! I read the book before it a couple months back and wrote a little thing for it for the book blog. Last week I got a comment on the entry from the author who offered to send me the ARC for the next book! How cool is that?!?! And so completely unexpected!]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/06/coolness.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/06/coolness.html Camera - Sony Miscellaneous Sat, 07 Jun 2008 15:13:19 -0500 For Macro Day: round And it works for See It Sunday too 'cuz it's a map This is one of those 3-D puzzles (a globe obviously) It was a fun puzzle to put together, but they make it waaaaaay too easy to cheat! Each piece has a number on the "wrong" side and starting at the South Pole with "1" it spirals all the way up and around until you have the whole puzzle. I did not use the numbers!]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/04/around_the_world.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/04/around_the_world.html Camera - Sony Memes Miscellaneous Sun, 13 Apr 2008 00:01:17 -0500 For PhotoHunt: Twisted]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/04/twisty.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/04/twisty.html Camera - Sony Memes Miscellaneous Sat, 12 Apr 2008 17:50:58 -0500 For Photo Hunt: high.

As I don't drink this was a rather odd object to find in my fridge! A certain someone left it in my fridge when she moved and now I haven't the faintest idea what to do with the thing!]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/03/left_behind_1.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/03/left_behind_1.html Camera - Sony Memes Miscellaneous Sat, 22 Mar 2008 20:14:05 -0500 I realized yesterday while talking to my best bud that I haven't been doing a lot of the on-line stuff that I used to do all the time. And I miss it. I haven't messed around with my camera in ages. I decided it's high time I work on participating again. So I picked a photomeme to work on today. And so here we have Macro Day whose theme this week is keys. Being the TV geek that I am I went with the switcher version of a key. eta: My apologies... it appears my comments have broken. I'm not exactly sure what's wrong with them. Everything seems to be where it's supposed to be... hopefully I'll be able to figure it out soon! eta #2: All better! There was a random line of code that needed an absolute path instead of a relative one. It's always been relative in the past so I'm not sure what it's problem was but it's working now so no worries!]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/03/keys.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2008/03/keys.html Camera - Sony Memes Work Mon, 17 Mar 2008 00:58:31 -0500 This little guys are hanging out at work. I haven't seen Mom & Dad, but other people at work have. One of them flapped his little wing while I was taking pictures, they're so scrawny and adorable! ]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/06/robin_babys.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/06/robin_babys.html Camera - Sony Critters Favorites Nature Work Tue, 26 Jun 2007 13:40:44 -0500 This would be what I bought at Mass Sheep & Wool this past weekend. That's 4 oz. of merino/tencel fiber in the front from the Sheep Shed. There's a skein of Spunky Eclectic sock yarn. I tend to be nervous about buying yarn on-line that I haven't seen in person, so I was very excited to see it and I bought some 'cuz it's purty! I also bought a real spindle from her. The blue that's on the spindle is from the roving I bought at the RI S&W a week ago. The real spindle works soooo much better than the CD one! ]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/purchases.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/purchases.html Camera - Sony Crafts Favorites Tue, 29 May 2007 11:38:27 -0500 There's a movie shooting in Providence this week with Katherine Heigl and since I had yesterday off I figured I'd go check it out. They weren't actually shooting outside, but the actors were starting outside and walking in the door. So we'd see them for a bit, they'd go in, and then we wouldn't see anything for a while. It was cool. I only took a few pictures, this one was the clearest.]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/squeee.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/squeee.html Camera - Sony People Thu, 24 May 2007 11:25:45 -0500 There was a wool fair down in Bristol today and I went. I figured it'd be a nice small first wool festival for me! There was a "children's tent" where they had drop spindles made with CD's to play with (there was other stuff in there too, but the spindles were the only part I really looked at) They had little bags with a CD drop spindle and some wool (that's the white stuff on the left) for 3 bucks. I finally caved. I've been resisting the whole spinning thing for ages. And I bought the blue roving as something pretty for inspiration. The seller has an etsy store here. I did mange to resist buying the most adorable baby angora bun. So tiny! So cute! ]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/spinning.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/05/spinning.html Camera - Sony Crafts Sat, 19 May 2007 16:42:44 -0500 I am completely blaming Wendy for this.

It started out with a sunset and went from there. I used Wilton's instead of Kool-Aid for the purple and it makes a much nicer purple! The Kool-Aid purple is so grey, I'll definitely be using this purple from now on. The colors are: Lemonade, Pineapple, Orange, Watermelon Cherry, Wilton's purple, and Ice Blue Raspberry. ]]> http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/04/fun_with_koolaid.html http://photoblog.sunidesus.net/2007/04/fun_with_koolaid.html Camera - Sony Crafts Mon, 16 Apr 2007 00:15:11 -0500
