So I promised Himey Kitty pictures of my yarn score, but I’m copping out due to crappy lighting. Which brings me to this:
I need to make a light box.
I’ve found a couple of different DIY options online here, here and here. I think I like the Make Blog DIY light box the best because I have pretty much all that stuff except for the lamps and maybe the posterboard.? I need to get on this and stop complaining about crap lighting.
I also have 408 yards of newly spun yarn to show you as well. Also, I don’t care what anyone says, spinnning is exercise. At least, the way I do it is. If you spin for 4 or more hours continuously, I would say you are getting exercise. Wouldn’t you?
We had another soccer game this weekend. The BAD Boy’s team won. It was an awesome game. The BAD Boy played goalie the first half of the game and did pretty well. He’s never played keeper before, but he settled into it quite well.
After his game, he wanted to know when I was going to put the soccer game pictures on my blog and our conversation went a little like this:
Me: I’m going to head downstairs and uploading the photos to Flickr.
Him: When are you going to put them on your blog?
Me: I’m not putting them on the blog. I’m just uploading them to Flickr.
Him: [confused] Why aren’t you putting them on your blog?
Me: Because my blog isn’t always about you.
Him: [Looking at me like I have a zebra head growing out of the side of my neck] It’s not?
Me: Nope. My blog is about me and my life. You just happen to be in it. A lot.
Him: [Looking at me like I have a giraffe head growing out of the zebra head on the side of my neck]So you’re not putting my soccer pictures on your blog?
Me: Nope.
Him: Man!
At that point, B stepped in to remind the BAD Boy that this is not his blog, it’s my blog. He pretty much just looked at us both like we’re crazy and then went and took a shower. I think I might have created a blog hogging monster.
Anyway, I am taking a stand. It is time to stop making excuses about why I have no pictures for you and to do something about it. My homework tonight is going to be to create a light box and to photograph everything I’ve been promising to photograph along with something I haven’t told you about yet. Piqued?
*snicker*
Blog hog.
And you can let the BAD Boy know that he shows up on your flickr photostream.
I have this same conversation with Britt ALL THE TIME! “you never post pictures of me on your blog” blahblahblah. I’ll have to take a few unflattering photos, post them to the blog, and maybe he’ll give it a rest!
