general_jinjur said it was okay to do this meme instead of writing, because she is a Leader in Fandom and she did it.( The meme of the moment )
I NEED A WRITING STICK! SOMEONE NEEDS TO BOP ME ON THE HEAD WITH IT!

A day of writing
14/2/10 15:38I've sat at my kitchen table, looking out my east-facing window, all day as the weather has gone by and the light has shifted.
I've been writing.
( Here was my view. )

Walking around at lunchtime
30/1/10 11:01There are a lot of what you might call "bright gray" days in Portland: completely overcast skies, but not dark or cold, and not actually raining. People who come here from more open-skied places have a hell of a time adjusting to them.
You have to make a point of going outdoors on those days and gathering as much of that bright gray light onto your retinas as you can; otherwise you'll get S.A.D. and miss the general awesomeness that is My Little Town.
I went out at lunch yesterday and took ten-gajillion pictures. Here's what was left after ruthless culling.
( Bright gray )

Gratuitous picture post
18/11/09 22:59New camera. Works great! What does this make? Four posts in one day? [ETA: Nope, only three.] Sorry! Spam stops after this.

It has a Gourmet setting!
14/11/09 12:42Ooh! My new camera just arrived! And OMG it has a special setting just for taking pictures of food! There's a little fork-and-knife icon, and the manual says, "Gourmet: Shoots food arrangements in delicious color."
My last camera was stolen in June and I've been saving up to replace it. After absolutely no research, I bought the same camera my sister got recently, the Sony Cybershot DSC-H20/B. I thought about a DSLR but came to the realistic conclusion that I'm never going to be that much of a photographer. I just want to illustrate my blog and stuff.
Besides, it's fucking AMAZING what a point-and-shoot will do these days. Like take special pictures of food. And David Pogue really liked this particular camera for its large light-sensor (which apparently improves the quality of images in ways that more megapixels can't do).
The battery is on the charger, so be warned: more picture posts are in my very near future.

Supernatural 5.08: My overall assessment is "dumb episode": no forward plot motion, still more uncomfortable and shark-jumping-esque self-referential hilarity, and another new player in the Apocalypse Games.
I laughed, I admit it. And seeing Jensen shot in bright, colorful light for a change was interesting and strange and made his eyes very, very green (though frankly, he and Jared are both far more beautiful in the greyed-out Supernatural world). It was amusing, but come on, let's get on with it! Stop with the fanservice already, Kripke.
In other miscellany, I NEED A CAMERA. Mine was stolen months ago, and I'm about ready to splurge on a replacement. I miss taking my unartistic little illustrative photos.
Oh, and I liked this, from Warren Ellis by way of Wil Wheaton:
At least half of all writing involves just sitting and staring into space. Letting your brain out to hunt down ideas, bringing them back all warm and bloody between its teeth.

4am Project
4/4/09 05:59I did it! Thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lamentables, I heard about the 4AM Project just a few days ago. You take pictures on April 4 at 4:00 a.m.
Soavventura1234 and I set out at 3:40 this morning to the east side river district of Portland, under the ramps of the Hawthorne and Morrison bridges, and took some pictures.
( Four of them were pretty good. )
