I came to get down
Mar. 13th, 2026 10:21 pm
After barely going anywhere or shooting anything for almost two months due to snow, severe cold, and feeling crappy, I started photographing again this week. I have some morning light cemetery shots and started putting up some daytime window display shots from when I was in the city for a doctor's appointment. The ones I just posted are all warm weather clothing while it was literally snowing and sleeting on me. (With the wind, I couldn't shoot and hold an umbrella simultaneously, so it was literally snowing and sleeting on me. It took hours for the fur ruff on my hood to dry out.) That was the day when the temperature started in the 60s F and ended up feeling like the 20s by nightfall. I'm visible in the reflection in some of those window shots. You can see the 11 window display photos and 22 cemetery photos at my Flickr.

"Lost Doctor Who episodes found in 'eclectic' collection"
The BBC has some nerve calling this guy's collection "ramshackle" when they personally deleted everything. At least he stored them, unlike you folks.

I drove about 15 miles to grocery shop in Westbury only to have Whole Foods and Trader Joe's not have the things I came for, so I trekked a little further away to Jericho and Plainview. The Plainview Trader Joe's is so much nicer and has a better selection than the ones I usually go to. It also played Depeche Mode's "Behind the Wheel" and Howard Jones' "Life in One Day" while I was there, which gives it extra credit.

House of Pain's "Jump Around" always gets me bouncing, but Pitbull and Lil John's "Jumpin'" takes the sample and adds a lot more party and booty shaking. Every time "Jumpin'" plays while I'm driving, I'm dancing in my seat.
