pre halloween

So happy halloween. Most likely I will not post again until after the halloween festivities.
So here is my last halloween photo.
I'll miss doing these. But maybe I'll still make scary/creepy pictures. We'll see.

I really enjoy Halloween.
As a child I always dressed up. Typically because everyone else did, but I don't think I was excited about Halloween as a child as I am now. Something about the crazy costumes and makeup. The children screaming because they ate way too much candy and are on a sugar rush.
Plus I've been on this scary photo kick. I'm really enjoying it. On top of the fun-ness, I'm learning more on photoshop.
Fun and learning? you might be thinking, that's crazy. But its true.

hollows even

I'm not sure how many more scary Halloween photos I'll do, but it was fun and I would like to do more. But I guess I'll settle with having at least one done.
Everyone should try it.

I'll do it again

I have mentioned before that I'm a geek.
I really am.
I really like computers and working with them.
I like Star Wars, technology and wearing glasses. Granted I like wearing glasses because it helps me see things. Especially when driving so that I don't hit things.
Or people.

Here are other hints that I'm a geek:
- I read geekologie.com and gizmodo.com every day.
- I taught myself HTML because I wanted to know it
- I really wanted a spider man kids shirt that saw at Old Navy but it's meant for a little boy so it doesn't fit me right.
- I enjoy playing video games once in a while
- I made this shirt.

Enough said.

vt..

This past weekend I drove up to Burlington, VT.
I ate, drank, and relaxed.
In 3 days I visited 3 breweries, ate at the Skinny Pancake (twice), and enjoyed some Ben and Jerry's ice cream (in 55 degree weather).

For those of you who never stepped foot in the state, Vermont has a lot of breweries. Also mountains and woods. But I'm sure more people care about the beer... ahem... So the 3 breweries I visited were Long Trail, Otter Creek and Magic Hat. Long Trail is more of a restaurant/bar than anything else but it was so packed we couldn't stay to enjoy the food. Otter Creek is small and they only have the occasional tour, but their Oktoberfest is delicious on tap. Magic Hat looks just like you think when looking at their label designs. They have a decent sized store and fairly frequent tours. Much beer was sampled.

Speaking of samples, I had many samples of Cabot cheese while I was there too. So much cheese, it was so good. I love cheese. I learned that Cabot cheddar is lactose free.

I love cheese.

P.S - the Skinny Pancake is a crepes place. Delicious. If you ever go to Burlington and like crepes, eat there! They serve breakfast and dinner too!

pets

Having my cat and dog are really my first pets I have had.
I had a dog when I was younger but I was too young to understand what having a pet is all about.
I was not really mature enough to take care of a pet at that time. Frankly I'm not really that mature now, but in different ways (for examples you should follow me on twitter).
But now, I have a dog and a cat and I love them both and they seem to love me.
They still amaze me in how much they understand and express how they feel.

Recently, a co-worker has a 15 year old dog that has cancer. unfortunately they cannot perform any surgery so the dog is taking medicating and they are not sure how much longer the litte guy has. Its so upsetting to hear. It hurts more when I think about my dog going through that.
But I try not too. She's still young.
Don't think I forgot about my cat. I LOVE her too. she was around 4 years before my dog even existed.

...

I suck as this.
I keep lying to you all (all 2 of you?)
I've been super busy.
But I have gotten some stuff done.
Such as some photos with my friend who was nice enough (and bribed with a free t-shirt) to model some of my shirts.







Enjoy.
