waiting summer

Yesterday Monday, things seemed like they were back to normal. Traffic lights were working and most stores were opened. There were a few gas stations displaying 0.0, which meant they were out of gas, and traffic was a lot lighter because non-essential government offices were closed. I was tired from playing that damn, freakin game all night. I had a busy day at work. I was too tired to go running after work. After dinner I bummed around a bit and went to bed at 10:00PM.

People in the fish tank have finally realized what a freak O.C. is. They realize he is a disgusting slob, openly picking his nose, farting, and yawning out loud. They realize he is an arrogant know-it-all who likes to stick his nose into everybody’s business. Last Thursday he was the self-professed expert on power grids, traffic control and terrorism. Freak.

I’m waiting for my two books from Amazon.ca, which should help me improve my photography composition. Should. I’ve also been reading up on different techniques of using the in-camera light meter. My photos still suck. I picked up my first roll of film taken with the Olympus Stylus Epic. Based on my photography skills or lack thereof, I can’t really say that the shots take with the Olympus point-and-shoot were as good as the ones taken with my Canon SLR. It’s more like the shots take with the Olympus p&s were NO WORSE than the ones taken with my Canon SLR. Yeah I know I suck. I think I’m going to start working on small photo projects based on themes. Some themes I’ve been considering are waves, waterfalls, and looking up. Damn photography. Why can’t I find something I like doing AND I’m good at?

Days are noticeably getting shorter. Instead of waking up to full sunshine I wake up to morning glow. There’s two more weeks till Labour Day and basically after that summer is over. Even though summer officially ends on September 22, mentally and spiritually summer ends after Labour Day. I still haven’t had enough of summer. I need another summer adventure.
