Pic a Day in May: Day 16

It's like those old 3-D glasses...

But on my feet.

And with tattoo pigment.

That I managed to get on the floor of my room while tattooing. And step in. Then track around all over the place.

There will be much cleaning of bio-hazardous materials tonight...

Jim of Jim's Stuff started his own version of the "Pic a Day in May" challenge. So I thought I'd go ahead and give it a shot. It's not like I can really think of anything to blog about these days anyway. So we'll go with my life in pictures. There's that whole "a picture is worth a thousand words" thing anyway, so that just means I need to write less. ;-)

Other bloggers that I know of who are playing along:
Jim of Jim's Stuff
Sean of Idle Eyes and a Dormy
Kelly of Rambling along in life...
Sean of Just a Jeep Guy
BuddyBear of One Step at a Time

Until next time...

Pic a Day in May: Day 11

How goes that saying? Something old... Something new... Something borrowed... Something TARDIS blue...

I've got two out of four.

Photo taken with my iPhone 3GS.

Texas Toasted

This past weekend the Husbear and I headed to Dallas for TBRU.

I won't say I had a bad time. But I don't know that I had a great time. Overall I just had a "meh" time. Which seems to be par for the course for me at events like this.

I did get to see friends. Which is always great. But I didn't get to see or spend time with all the friends I wanted to. Which is "meh".

Add to that I didn't feel great the entire time. I still don't. I'm sure the alcohol I ingested didn't help matters much either. I probably should have avoided that. But it helps me deal with crowds. Again with the "meh".

I did realize one thing: I think my camera sucks. My iPhone camera, that is. Most of the pictures I took ended up being crap. Maybe not total crap. But crappy enough that it makes me look like I took them with schmutz on the lens. Which there could have possibly been.

Anyway, I leave you with a photo review of the weekend!

The shoes command me…

... or at least they know my commands.

I received these custom Chucks for Yaksmas.

20120125-191214.jpg

Funny story about them. At least one that I think is funny. One that gives an entirely new meaning to sneakernet.

The "D0NTPAN1C" stitched into the back of them? That *was* my master password. Well, kind of. It was the one I had set up so the Husbear could access my information if I got hit by a bus. (Apparently, he is unaware of case-sensitivity when it comes to passwords.) But I changed the password anyway.

Next time I'll just seal the password in an envelope and not actually tell him what the password is.

Until next time...

13 on 13

So I'm doing my very first "12 on 12". But on the 13th. Since it's a Friday the 13th. And since I tend to be contrary like that.

13 pictures taken on the 13th of the month. All pictures were taken with my iPhone. Click the images to enlarge, if you dare!

Created by Chad Darnell and picked up from a number of random bloggers who then link back to him and vice versa. Chad stopped doing the 12 of 12 links in December of 2011, so I linked to Blobby's Blog as Blobby is the one who inspired me to do it.


20120113-224524.jpg
10:01 AM: Brush, brush, brush. Brush, brush, brush.


20120113-224535.jpg
10:02 AM: µ probably wonders why us pink-skins put on clothing. Actually, she probably wants me to hurry up and put my clothes on!


20120113-224551.jpg
10:21AM: Suiting up. My feet. Which reminds me, I need to tell a humorous story about this pair of Chucks.


20120113-224605.jpg
10:30 AM: Essential head gear for the 20 degree weather we're having today. Not a fan of the cold. Ever. And we still have snow on the ground from the dusting we received the day before.


20120113-224630.jpg
10:42 AM: Returning a disc back to Netflix. A Doctor Who episode or two. I may or may not be making "archival backups". Just in case. I really need to buy every episode made, which hopefully I can do one day when I'm rich.


20120113-224643.jpg
11:34 AM: Preparing my room at the studio for the day. All cleaned and mopped.


20120113-224655.jpg
11:39 AM: Making tattoo care instruction sheets. Because it's important.


20120113-224707.jpg
2:59 PM: Got my hair cut. Again. So much maintenance these things are.


20120113-224720.jpg
7:18 PM: A quick snack between tattoos.


20120113-224736.jpg
9:57 PM: Leaving the studio for the night.


20120113-224753.jpg
10:24 PM: The product I ordered December 8, 2011 FINALLY came in the mail today. Over one month after I ordered it. I definitely don't recommend ordering anything from Pet Street Mall if you're in a rush.


20120113-224807.jpg
10:27 PM: Dinner. The Husbear made some chili.


20120113-224831.jpg
10:39 PM: My entertainment unit/work space. This is pretty much where I park my butt at night once I get home. The Husbear is usually in bed already. And I usually have tattoos to draw, paperwork to work, blogs to read, and Doctor Who episodes to watch.


20120113-225034.jpg
Bonus: 10:49 PM: Someone got a Friday the 13th tattoo today!

Until next time...
Erik
