Officer, I swear it was an accident.

I have had a pretty bad cold for the past few days. Seriously bad, raw spot on my nose bad (from blowing/wiping)--this is a first.

One the way home from work yesterday, I was finally starting to perk up a bit and it was positively gorgeous outside so I had all the windows down and the roof open for the commute home. All was well and good until I hit the highway, I had not properly calculated the air currents rolling through my vehicle nor reconciled them to the mass of the stack of used Kleenexes (a proprietary eponym and a victim of genericide) and out the windows they floated and flew.

Making me... a litterer. At least my tabs are current.

The upcoming rain eases my conscience that they won't become part of home for some adorable woodland creature or bird.

High Praise

So, I have precious few readers. I suppose this is appropriate seeing as how I have been logging precious few entries.

Most of them love me based on blood, marriage or... years of service. But tonight I am writing about one reader who I haven't known very long and don't know super well however I like her a lot. She's one cool broad and not just because she has great taste in blogs and pics.

Jen, JRO... this one's for you. Thanks for the readership and the camera tips (am still beaming from your feedback ;).

If Coors Light had a "Real B*tch&s of Genius" marketing campaign I would probably have a link just for you, instead here's one for Amy (one of my all time faves) that if it doesn't kick her gagger in, it will at least make her tear up with laughter.

Best of Canada 2009

While my photography has improved I am still not the prodigy I had hoped. It took 154 clicks of the shutter to get 10 share worthy photos. I love the flora and fauna as subjects and think a trip to the arboretum might be on the horizon once I read a few more chapters in the 'how to' books.
