I did get out of bed and on the road on time. Not bad for going to bed at 1230. Sadly I was up watching Friends of all things not realizing the wedding episode was long.<\/p>\n
I went to the local butterfly conservatory for the Family day weekend. My niece was afraid of most of the butterflies, specifically them landing on her. I think I got some good pictures, I’ll find out in a couple of days. There weren’t as many as there usually are flying around but it was fun seeing the birds. A couple of times I thought they were going to bean me. I saw one guy there who was very serious about his pictures, super expensive stuff taking a 1000 shots all at slightly different angles, sometimes taking his girlfriends camera taking a hundred shots while she stands there. Funniest part was when he was done he gave her back her camera and than she proceeded to take a bunch more pics of the same butterfly with the same camera.<\/p>\n
On Monday I played some dice games while mostly ignoring my nieces cries for help with her calculus. She is still at a stage where she doesn’t get the connections from one thing to another but can do most of the other stuff fine. It is worrying though that she didn’t know how to add or multiply radicals at all and that was a section of her class so far. I have to give her credit though she did do her homework while everyone else was playing. My nephew has really impressed me, I thought his studying habits were weak and would hold him back despite being bright but he is getting some impressive marks.<\/p>\n
I built a light box for taking some pics at home, it looks a lot crappier than I was expecting and I was expecting crap. I will be testing it out tonight.<\/p>\n
In weight news I was 245 this morning. I had a bunch of popcorn to keep me from snacking and tuna for a small din din. I’ll probably hover around this weight for a while now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
