A bullet list update
Jul. 8th, 2011 11:43 am ~ What is with all the damn LJ comment spam these days? Aaaargh.
~ Saw Transformers 3. It was, IMO, the best of the three, and it was definitely leagues better than the second. The model who replaced Megan Fox was a better actress, thank goodness, and the stupid humor was kept to a minimum.
~ Why, On Demand, why?? Why have only the first two episode of Rizzoli & Isles, instead of the whole first season?? This is a great show! I want to catch up, and your "past season catch up" section sucks. *pouting*
~ Mark is back from Japan, and his jet lag is proceeding as normal. Meaning he can't sleep until the wee hours of the morning, and is groggy and tired when he gets up around 11:00, needs a nap by 3:00, and then is wide awake until it starts all over again. Poor guy.
~ While he was gone this year, I spent five days up in Seattle, and we went to this great small zoo and got to take some pictures of tigers from, like, four feet away. Maybe less. There was a piece of plexiglass between us, and that was it. I'm still processing all of the photos, but here's a sample. You can see a jeans-clad leg reflected in the plexiglass if you look closely at the bottom, showing just how close we were. No zoom, just a 50mm prime lens, which is called "the natural lens" for a reason - you photo very close to the world as you actually see it. This is Taj, a beautiful and rare golden tiger:
And Almos, a still rare, but not quite as rare as the golden, white tiger:
When I get done uploading them to my flickr account, I'll post a link.
