Life

Ok somehow, January seems to have totally escaped me. And a good chunk of February too.
oh well.

I've been scanning and uploading some family photos of mine and Wifes. Old stuff, like grand parents and great grandparents. Scanning and posting them to flickr.
One of the photos was Wifes sister as a baby, either just getting up to her feet, or in the process of taking a spill. She's standing there, hands on the ground in front of her, little baby skirt sticking straight up, bloomer covered diaper straight at the camera. Of course the stream I'm posting it to will never get seen by more than 6 people. I write that I'm tempted to add a bunch of descriptive tags to lure in the porn-surfers. But then I figure, why not. I'll post it where neither Wife nor sister will likely see it. On my main Flickr page. With all the tags I feel like. I posted it about 9 this morning, and now, at 6 in the evening, it has almost 120 views! I LOVE IT! I love f*cking with their minds. Nothing like an up-skirt shot to bring in the porn-surfers...

I'm actually teaching a couple of classes this week. Boss is out of town, working a gig in N'awlins, so I get to take his Monday and Wed. class, Intro to Stage Lighting. The one that has the lab hours as a requirement, so it's the kids I already know. Monday was "how to hang a light" and tomorrow is "Cables and Connectors". Gonna be fun. The first class was quick and easy, since most had already learned it for their lab hours. The next one will be more intensive. more detailed.

I'm also dealing with a new frustration. Wife keeps coming up with ideas that are totally unfeasible given our physiques. One was that she wants to get a Cooper Mini. Yeah. Right. ME, in a Mini. I'd have to take out the front seat and sit in back and stretch out my legs to drive. And it probably couldn't handle both of us...
A Vespa. She wants a Vespa. How to I tell her how unrealistic it is to consider it? Back in college, I considered getting a scooter too. It was all the rage, they were just getting popular. 'Til somebody pointed out that a guy my size would be laughed off the street on anything less than a 350 motorcycle. So I've gotten over it. I'm happy with my little wagon. I'd consider a truck, but I have a hard time getting in and out of anything smaller than the car I've got. I just don't bend that well anymore.

Ahhh life.

hehe big man in a tiny car... what is that from?? It's a movie line from something, I suck at name that quote.

Anyway if I had the money for a car at the moment, I'd really consider a VW bug. One of the new M&M ones. I'm no tiny thing either (in spite of my mother asking once if I was anorexic?? and the woman was a nurse....) Anyway, those little things are HUGE on the inside! I don't see you with the flower holder (maybe a shot glass rack :p) but go sit in one, you may be surprised :)

I do, however, love the visual of a little tiny car, like the mini, with me, getting out of it.

it makes me think of the scene in police academy where steve gutenburg takes that giant dude for his driving test - they rip the front seat out of a 1980's civic and the dude drives from the back seat.

also, you would totally rock a motorcycle.
