Julia’s Self Portraits

Julia had a phase recently where she was taking a ton of pictures of herself. Instead of uploading all the pictures, I played with the collage function in Picasa.

She’s developed a habit of needing to immediately see the picture after it’s been taken. When she’s taking pictures of herself, this isn’t a problem; she just flips the camera around and looks at the screen.

However, when I’m trying to take a picture, she insists on coming over to the camera, and gawking at herself on the camera. It gets old quickly.

Picture Gallery #47 - Pictures by Julia

Julia continues to take a lot of pictures with our older camera. But now Kaitlyn is also getting into the game of taking pictures as well. So it’s getting more difficult to know for sure if all of these pictures are really from Julia.

Julia has also gotten into self portraits again. Look for more proof coming soon.

Gallery2 Upgrade

I’ve upgraded the photo gallery to a new version. While doing that, I tweaked the layout to make it look a little bit better. Now it’s time to start updating the gallery again.

I also changed the name of the blog. Wanted something a little different.

Thoughts? Leave it in the comments.

I really enjoy listening to Pandora. One thing that Pandora does is show similar artists to the one currently playing. It seems to work most of the time. However, this is what shows up when Pink Floyd starts playing:

Huh? How is Ashlee Simpson similar to Pink Floyd???

joemama.net

After letting my other domain sit idle for several months, I’ve been adding stuff to my other blog, joemama.net. It uses Tumblr, which is perfect for those quick links or other odd things that I want to share, but don’t care to create a new post here. You can see it get updated on the right sidebar. Enjoy!

Worst. Advice. Ever.

So the market is down eleventy percent in the last few days, and people have lost a lot of paper worth in the stock market. What’s Jim Cramer’s advice? Sell, sell, sell! (Or as Sarah Palin might say, “Sell, baby, sell!”)

I thought the first thing everyone buying stock learns is, “Buy low, sell high.” But, silly me, I guess that’s what you do when you want to, you know, make money.

How he still has a job is beyond me. Wait, I know - he gives the NBC networks that market “advice” and provides some obnoxious “entertainment” at the same time.

A Quick Note…

…to Sarah Palin: it’s not pronounced “I-raq” and “I-ran”. It’s “Ear-raq” and “Ear-ran”.
