Not Much to Say

[nekosensei]

Yesterday, I took doomsey's Prius to have its emissions tested. The guy doing the test commented that he was amazed that he could put his foot down all the way on the gas, and that the car wouldn't make any noise. Apparently, the car had decided at that point that it wanted to run on battery power. I still like seeing people's reaction to the Prius when it does something that's out of the norm for them. I'm pretty much used to it since doomsey and I have owned one for a long time now. On the way out, I added that they were great cars and that they were fun to drive.

This week, I started going for my walks again. I used to walk two to three-and-a-half miles a day, but I stopped doing that when I messed up my hamstring and later my neck. I am told that walking will help with my back (which is probably what's causing the problems with my hamstring and neck). On Sunday I did two miles and I did three miles on Monday. My neck and shoulders were very sore after walking three miles, so yesterday I went back down to two. I think I'm going to slowly try building up from there.

I also managed to get a paper cut under my nail yesterday. Damn...that hurt. And it bled a lot too. That was wonderful. I just had to get a bad cut where a Band-aid won't do any good. Fortunately, I had some Kleenex handy so I shoved a piece of it under my nail and stopped the bleeding with that. Oh...and it's still sore. *grumbles*

You could come down to C-U and walk ME!

Aww...I'd love you walk you. You sound like a good dog. Maybe the next time doomsey and I are downstate...

Did the doomsey get his goodie box?

[doomsey.livejournal.com]

yup. two boxes, actually, for whatever reason.

I was playing with the lens pen; it's a handy thing and made it into the camera bag pretty quickly. The rest is sitting on my desk due to laziness :)

Dust! The bane of photographer's everywhere!

I have one of the little lens cloth like keychain thingies on my safety glasses case here at work. So...handy for other stuff too.

Amazon.com likes the multi-boxes. Not sure why.

Since the crazy 12-24 lens likes to be just a few inches away from the subject, I find wayward fingers and dog tongues to be a pretty big concern too!

[nekosensei.livejournal.com]

Yep...doomsey got it. He was very appreciative!

Ah, shucks, I was looking forward to taking the Prius in to get its (non)emissions checked. Bummer that we sold it to you before it needed it. I really wanted to be the first Prius the guy checked.

They aren't that bright, those guys. There was the time that I warned the guy that my four-door Grand Am was a stick shift, even though four-door Grand Ams never are -- we had to order it that way. I even explained this to him. The guy couldn't find the clutch pedal! He came over to me and asked me if I was sure it was a stick. Like I wouldn't know, having driven it over there. Brother!
