Spooky Jack-o-lanterns

Martha and I had some fun with the last three remaining pumpkins at our Harris Teeter. They are now sitting proudly out on our balcony where only we (and a few neighbors) can see them.

VisualDNA

Just a quick update while I'm at work... Martha sent me a link to find your "VisualDNA." Essentially, it is a personality test through pictures you select. I found it pretty neat, and wanted to post for everyone else to take a look at.

For those of you who are interested, I'm a "Wild Cat - Conqueror - Junkie Monkey - Love Bug."

It also continued the theme of photography that this month has taken. I've got the last couple days on my camera - just haven't had a chance to upload them yet. Hopefully I'll have a chance to do that tonight before we unplug the computer for a while. We're moving tomorrow, and I doubt we'll have internet access at the new place for a while.

Well, so far so good. I've made it five days in a row on the 365 days project. I figure it'll start getting more difficult as I run out of ideas on what to do.

We had an eventful weekend, having a picnic down at Lady Bird Johnson Park, and then going to the Folk Life Festival on the National Mall. Although it was 95 degrees, if certainly felt nice to get out of our tiny apartment...

Speaking of apartments, we went and looked at our new on in the Delancey building. It's still kinda small for our taste, but I think it will work out. The huge veranda is a nice thing to have. We're supposed to move in on August 1. We'll see if they have the county's approval at that time, or if it gets delayed (again).

Well, much to my suprise, I remembered to take my self portrait on day two. Now comes the hard part - the weekend. Hopefully I can remember both days. Today's was done after I blew off some steam at The Energy Club. It's been a rough week at work...

I don't think I'll be blogging all of the photos - just the ones I feel like. I'm not particularily artsy, so I'm sure some of the pictures will turn out like crap. And those are the pictures that don't need to be broadcast to the world. I hope this project makes me a better photographer - it is something I've always wanted to do. I'd like to take a class, but I think I'd need a nicer camera (probably a real fancy one) for that.

In other news, I'm trying to start a hockey team for the fall. So far six people have said they want to play. I need at least 15 to form a team, I think. I'm not sure if I'll get that many, as I haven't received the cash from anyone yet. Well, hopefully there will be a team called "The Wolves" in the Kettler Capitals Ice Plex "B League" in the fall.

I've been wanting to do this for a while now - take a self-portrait a day for 365 days straight. I've been putting it off for a while now, but after speaking with babblingdweeb, I've decided to give it a shot. So, here we go - Day 1! Hopefully I'll be able to stick with it....
