No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I e-mailed you.

Synopsis: Oh, no, Rodney!

I am awaiting the delivery of our new computer chair. It is supposed to arrive...sixteen minutes ago.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's IMDB for you, with the lack of context.

Saying "context, schmontext!" kind of hurts my jaw.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My new computer chair is now supposed to be here an hour and seven minutes ago. Why is it absolutely impossible for delivery companies to deliver anything on time?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I was taken to lunch by a co-worker today and shown his photo albums of a big trip he took last year. He wanted to see my Kenya photos, but those are all online and I don't want to give him my Flickr information.

His stuff had been electronic, and he used mypublisher.com to print out some really slick glossy-paged albums. I'm not sure my pictures are as important as all that, but it's kinda weird not having any hard copy.

I like photographs existing. It's part of why I need to replace my Polaroid camera. I wonder how long that technology will remain available to the end user.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Has anyone tried ordering prints from Flickr?

I've ordered prints through iPhoto that turned out really nice. You can also get a bunch of photos printed into an album.

If you want prints/albums for someone else, iPhoto can send the stuff right to them.

I've only uploaded and ordered stuff from Costco. Their albums looked cheesy as all hell last time I took a peek.

I've started uploading the full aize photos to Flickr (I got a pro account for this reason) so I could print from it if the whim caught me. But I haven't tested it yet.
