Trick ,'First Date'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hee, Bubba the cat!
ION, fucking Boston. I went to go by the vet's to pick up more of the prescription food I've decided to commit to (for a while, at least), and they were closed! They are open Saturday 9-1 and not at all Sunday. What the shit is that? And I won't be able to make it Monday, because they close at 6. I hope I remember on Tuesday....
Isn't ita ! or msbelle or someone a big Blair Underwood fan? I'm watching him on a genealogy show and there are some great stories. (Also he is very pretty.) [link]
Burrell, I'm so sorry.
How've you been liking the class, Tom?
Oh, Bubba. Silly kitty.
flea, my genealogy-interested roommate watched that last night and thought it was great. I think the idea of a 10-times-removed 'cousin' is sketchy but it's not a bad excuse to visit Cameroon with your elderly father, so.
I am so sorry, Burrell.
I saw the Blair Underwood episode last night too. (He is a very handsome man. I'm going on record with that.) I thought it was so cool that there was someone in the same DNA-translating program who was related to him at all, from so far away and so long ago. It was a good episode.
How've you been liking the class, Tom?
It's been fun! It's mostly been helpful in getting me less wary of taking photos of strangers. I wish I could have got more feedback on my pictures; maybe it's because I don't know the right questions to ask?

I wish I could have got more feedback on my pictures
My feedback would be along the lines of "ooh, pretty!" and nothing really technically helpful. I think your photos are lovely.
That's a really cool blog. It's good that it seems you found a simpatico group of people. I joined a photo club in Michigan, and it was mostly pictures of deer and the Grand Canyon, and I got really tepid reactions to my work, enough that I couldn't be sure what was constructive and what was just missing the target market. But the other people in your group look like they have good cool eyes.
Still, I dig wanting more feedback. And learning to give feedback is always good.
The art "class" I went to a couple weeks back wasn't a class. It was a model session. There was no instruction or feedback, which was kind of disappointing. But getting a model to work with was still a start.
I'm feeling very artistically adrift, and I need external help to get my moorings back.
I swear, no actor is having more fun this season than Mark Pellegrino. Jesus hijinks.
Yup, I had that with the songwriting class I did. Partly because I goofed and it was a multiday class and I only got the last half of it. But apparently the earlier days were more feedbacky and the parts I came in for were more applause only. But I enjoyed the heck out of it and hope to do it again this coming summer.
