Yes, I am a slacker. A slacker with a new camera. I've uploaded 25 or 30 pictures to Yafro but haven't gotten around to linking any in my photo blog.
I'm very, very pleased with the quality of the photos I am able to take with my new camera. I'm all about the zoom, and with the 6x optical zoom my lovely Fuji camera has, I am able to get clear, colorful close-up shots without being very near at all.
Until I get my tripod, I will probably only post pictures I've taken of other people and things. One thing my camera phone is better at is self-portraits. I just flip it shut, start the camera, and I can see the image right on the screen on the front. And there's no awkward twisting to make sure my grip on the camera allows a clear, steady shot; it just fits in my hand with a shutter release button right under my thumb. The camera phone, I mean.
What else...? I got a nasty sunburn on Monday and was beating myself up over it. I haven't been sunburned in two years, and was dreading the fade-to-tan stage since I was wearing a t-shirt and sitting in an odd position and had very interesting burn patterns on my arms. However, I need not have fretted, as I slathered some Vitamin E cream on the burn twice a day and it went away almost overnight.
Not much else is new. I've just been taking pictures like a maniac and showing off my camera to anyone who will listen, and even some who won't. I've also been running on very little sleep (6 or 7 hours a night. I need 10 or 12 to feel well-rested.) for a week or so and don't have another day off from work until Wednesday. I'm pretty exhausted. I might have to take advantage of the ADA and ask my doctor to write me a note stating that I need to not work more than four days in a row and have at least 14 hours between shifts to recuperate. I get too damned fatigued to close at 11:30, wind down for a few hours, get to sleep at 3:00, and have to be back on the clock at 11:00 the next morning. I guess part of it is my fault though, offering to work the fruit stand last weekend, and jumping at the opportunity to run a sales event in the store (that's right, the store, not the fuel station) this Saturday (a scheduled day off) hoping that I will impress them enough that they will bring me in on a more regular basis.
I will try my best to post something more substantial before the end of the weekend, but don't hate me if I don't?
Don't forget to see what's new on my photo blog and Party In My Pants!
