So it’s been a while since I’ve done any photography! Which is INSANE, considering that we had a whole month of Photography recently and the weather is getting better (besides today which started with rather stormy weather. but its cleared up now) Anyway, I headed out into the back yard and had a look around and I got a hand full of pic’s that I actually like! What do you think?
So it’s been a week since I last blogged… WOW I’m slack when AnnaRelle isn’t around! My last blog post you can see below this one was when we all went to the beach. I even missed SimSunday! And my Sim’s Story needs telling so look out for that later in the week!
Whats been happening in my life since the last blog? Well nothing but working, and that really sucks! I worked 6 days straight and it’s a pain in the ass, especially with a new roster starting this week that has me at work until midnight most nights, so while I adjust to the later hours the blog updating might take a bit of a dive! But I feel that ever since PhotOtober that I haven’t actually written a Blog… You know, just a blog. Chit Chat, boring Crap… A Blog… All of October was filled with pictures, and the half assed blogs this month have been based on a certain something. I think with Christmas coming up, I may ditch the challenges for a while. But I will try and keep up SimSunday! As It’s only just started out.
Recently I got a Google Wave Invite from Anna, while yes it’s all still in Preview and everything’s a bit buggy at times. The whole idea / premises behind the Google Wave Idea is great…. In a nut shell, Google Wave is a Collaboration tool, Email, Project Management and Instant Messaging all wrapped together in a user based tree hierarchy system.
You create a new wave, add who ever you want to the conversation, then start typing. Whats great is if people are online or offline, everyone sees the same thing in order. You can be chatting about an upcoming trip your planning, and all the detail is there for the others who haven’t been online at the time. You can go back and edit your posts. Reply to various parts of posts and even upload all your pictures for people to see.
While some people might not see the point, necessity behind it all. I think if it’s finished off right, Google Wave could mean the end for MSN… Apart from all the people who are stuck in their ways and won’t accept anything new… BTW, all those people need a Twitter account as well =P
Nothing more to rant on about! Look out for my delayed SimSunday post at some stage!
It’s the week of Summer at ii-Blog.com, and today. Myself, iRelle, iKylos and Tiggy all headed to the beach for a day of sun, sand and swimming in Bridport. As soon as we picked Andrew up from in town the clouds enveloped Launceston and we all thought the Universe had done its usual trick for when ever Andrew heads to the beach and poor down with rain. But luckily as we drove through the country side we found ourselves on the other side of the clouds, with nothing but Blue Sky and White fluffy clouds spotted around the place as we searched for a suitable beach.
We ended up at Adams Beach, and there was NO ONE else in sight, maybe because its November and still officially Spring, or the fact that it was a Weekday. But it was good as we had the entire beach to ourselves… that was until Anna was up behind a sand-dune getting changed and 3 or 4 random guys walked down the track. Although they disappeared across the rocks not to much later. Only to return with Surf / Boggy Boards, but it was a large beach and we could share.
I decided to be arrogant and not wear any sunscreen, and while I sit here now with a red face, stinging arms and slightly red legs. I don’t feel that bad considering everyone else wore sunscreen and still got sunburnt!
After a while in the waters, being bashed around by the waves and after covering Anna in sand just where the waves lapped up the shore. We wondered over to the rocks to lay down and dry off. We sat there for what would probably be a good hour or more, just sitting and talking crap.
It was a nice day in the end and we headed back to reality at about 4:30, with a short trip along gravel road in my 4WD getting it nice and dirty, Now I have to wash it some time this week and vacuum out all the sand… thanks kyle.. thanks.
Sim-Sunday is just a little something that iRelle and myself are going to start trying to do on a weekly basis. Basically we started playing the Sims 3, a game we’ve both had for a while but our interest kind of faded away. Until randomly I dusted off the DVD case and tried it out. The reason that I stopped playing the Sims 3 was because I had just moved onto Macs as full time computers the same time the game was released and at the initial release date the Mac support for The Sims 3 was fairly crap. Many users would run into the problem where their games just wouldn’t save. Hanging on the Saving Screen for hours on end and doing nothing. I unfortunately was in that basket. But now a patch or two later and I’m going strong.
