“Adding speech bubbles, annotations, and captions to videos”

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

I wanted to have some fun with the video I posted earlier of Penny and Jesse. Because of the poor quality and how fast the camera was moving at times, I knew it would make the video better if I added some notes to it such as speech or thought bubbles. YouTube has ... See Full Entry »

 

“Penny and Jesse Get Ready for a Walk”

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

The dogs usually get walked twice a day, if not more often.  They go in the morning, and then again right after work. Penny is usually the one that whines for the morning walk.  Actually, she doesn't really want to walk; she just wants to pee.  Jesse is content sleeping until whenever someone is up and ...

“Walking Home on Hollywood Blvd”

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I took a few snapshots last night as I was walking home from my friend's birthday shindig. There were lots of interesting things I wanted to take pictures of, but I felt too self-conscious about it.  I'm sure I'll get over it at some point. See Full Entry »

 

“Thanksgiving Table Setting - Boston 2006”

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

Thanksgiving is around the corner and I haven't made any plans yet! Usually it's just the two of us and the dogs. In the past we had a couple neighbors drop by. We'll probably end up with our usually turkey and sausage stuffing, some other sides, plenty of wine and a pumpkin pie. Yum! Two ... See Full Entry »

Wonky eyes

A few months ago I decided to try colored contacts again after a disaster a few years ago. Back then I bought a colored pair, sight unseen, with my regular contact lens order. It was Acuvue 2 Colors in hazel. And it was horrible. The colored area looked like it was painted on harshly ... See Full Entry »

 

“Learned on November 17, 2008”

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

Inspired by my friend Alex Boroda, I'm starting a new category of entries called "What I Learned Today."  Let's see how long I keep it up. ;-) ### In Firefox, my visited links weren't changing to match my CSS. They looked fine in IE. Now I know from (a very frustrating) past experience that ... See Full Entry »

 

“I’m turning into a blonde (again)!”

Blond Streak and Light Brown Hair

I've noticed for a couple weeks now that my hair is turning blond. Not all of it though, just streaks here and there in the bottom 4 inches of my hair. It's been at least 6 months since I last colored my hair, which is probably the longest I've gone without coloring it in at ... See Full Entry »
