Tonight was my first time on Apple campus. I was there for Cocoaheads
since Ted was talking about the MacFUSE Objective-C framework. Here’s
the January 13, 2008 | Daily Photos - 2008 |
Ok I know this one’s a bit lame but it’s for me to remember how behind I
am in all my reading. Just sitting on the table, looking at me, enticing
me but not actually getting touched.
Of course today’s about the elections as well. But the captured facial
expression is one of my favorites.
Leftover pumpkins from Halloween. One would think they were bad by now
but two months down and they are still so cute.
Not a pumpkin person? Ok, here are some stamps for you:
My friend Mark and I took a long walk around Stanford campus today. It
was a wonderful time even though it started raining and we couldn’t find
our car. More photos from today to be posted later.
Rainstorms are still all the rage here. Supposedly we’ll have another
six or seven days of them. Joy Joy.
Today, we had one of the biggest rain storms we’ve had in Palo Alto
since I’ve moved here. Nonstop rain and heavy winds. It was not fun.
However, one of the benefits of a lot of rain is that grass and plants
get a lot of water and become really colorful. So I wanted to capture
the beautiful reds in our front yard to remind myself that rain is not
all bad.
Ok, so I have two of them today. At first, I was like, “Oh, crap that
doesn’t work with the rules.” Then I remembered, guess what? I
make the rules! How do you like them apples?
This is a photo of one of the Christmas lights we put outside. They are
iridescent. With all the rain, it looks even more magical to me and I
wanted to capture it so I could remember this special holiday season.
And we’ve caught up to today’s photo. For anyone who knows me, today’s
photo should be predictable. This is the first time I get to vote in a
presidential election and so I am watching every moment of every major
political event. And, of course, the Iowa Caucus qualifies. It was Obama
and Huckabee’s nights.
Today’s photo is more for me than usual. As Jake was in the side yard,
cutting up our tree, I snapped this photo of our side yard. I’ve always
wanted a house with a yard and this one has two of them. I don’t know
how long we’ll have a house and the side yard’s so green right now that
I wanted to make sure I captured its beauty.
Yes, I know I haven’t done the looking forward post yet. I have had a
fever of 101 for the last four days and I’ve pretty much been in bed the
whole time. I will do the post as soon as I pick up all the pieces I’ve
been dropping for the last few days. David’s been sick twice in the last
three weeks and Jake just came from the hospital where he found out that
he has a well-advanced ear infection. So our household has welcomed 2008
in our own special way. By being sick.
Anyhow. I’m starting two new things this year: picture of the day and
daily David. We’ll see how far I go, but the goal is to capture random
photos from my day. They are not meant to be high quality (though they
can). They are meant to document something from my day. Each day.
Today’s is about our tree. This year, we got a real tree for the first
time in ten years and we decorated it with white and blue ornaments and
lights. It made this holiday season my very favorite. I looked forward
to seeing that tree every night when I came home and every morning when
I woke up. So this photo is to commemorate our last day with the tree.
