5Q2

Say you: What the....
Say me: It's a purse!  That used to be a license plate!  How cool is that???  


The thing weighs a ton, and sue me for saying this, but this baby is fabulous.  It belongs to my little bag buddy at work (I featured another one of her bags early on, although the shot is really not that great) and I told her I wanted to snap a picture of it before I left.  Two hours later as I was walking out, she reminded me.  


For that, she wins another entry (it was after midnight).  


And so my project is coming to a close.  I have one more picture left, and I already know the subject matter.  But since the day just turned, I've yet to take it.  


I have my new project mapped out in my head, so please stay tuned for details!  The only teaser I will give you now is that for the next year, I will be offering a photo a week instead of a photo a day. The photos will once again follow a theme.  I'm going to take a small break after tomorrow, and start up again Labor Day Weekend. 


If you want to see a mosaic of all the pictures I took this past year, you can go here.  They look pretty cool and each one is numbered, dated and links back to my entry for the picture on the blog.  I'll also be using a lot of them for this project, due in January. ->

Housesitter

Remember these? They take you back, don't they?

I'm old enough to remember when the whole concept of renting a movie and watching it at home was a big deal. I also remember that in the beginning, there were two sizes of tapes: Beta and VHS. I don't know why VHS, the bigger and lesser of the two, became the standard, but it did.

Can you remember the last time you actually watched anythingin tape format? I can't even remember the last time we had a tape player in the house. Funny, how quickly technology passes us by... ->

Blue Thrown (away)

 

Your local Habitat For Humanity ReStore (AKA Commode Rest Home) is the place to go for mismatched and/or blue toilets.  Should you be so inclined to go for a blue toilet.  They also had pink one and mint green one if those colors better suit your tastes.  Or the lovely gold with crimson seat you see there to the right...  

For the record, I didn't get the blue one.  I got a white one.  At Locke.  Yes, it's new.  Discontinued floor model if you must know.  But I'm reusing the handle I currently have because the floor model didn't come with one.  So there.  ->

I'm hoping to make a singular art project with all these photos, so I started saving all my receipts.  This is less than 2 weeks worth...

Try it for a week.  You'll be amazed at the paper.  Not to mention the money leaking out of your pockets. -> 

Steel Cans

Tick Tock

Isn't this the coolest ring?  Santa gave it to me for Christmas with heavy, heavy guidance (read: I picked it out at the Girlie Show and Mom bought for me and then made me wait.) If you can't tell, it's a clock mechanism that's been reconfigured.  


I love this thing.  ->
