yeah, I miss her a lot…we spend a lot of time together since my studio is here. Unfortunate situation, but she doesn’t seem to be to bothered by it…although, I believe she’d rather be here than there…:{)
what a nice thing to say. Put a smile on my face…:{)
I’d enjoy your company. I suspect that Mr. O would probably not be pleased to have you gone…:{)
She’ll be back sometime tomorrow. The only real positive in the situation is that she never has to be boarded when I travel…if xso can’t watch her, I have a dog-sitter-type person that comes by the house and looks after her.
I can assure you they are not pants made out of monkeys. 🙂
Some type of joe boxer type… blue with a bunch of monkey faces on it. I may photograph myself in pink gear on spans across the rivers of America… but I will not photograph my jammies. 🙂
I did shoot myself in a pink slip but I am too sober to post that right now. 🙂
No way O-se! I’m “smart” enough to know that I’m still learning 🙂
But I am so glad that there is CodePink out there… I just sorta fell into it but it does suit me very well.
Medea said some very kind things to me about my energy and smile… that I will also carry with me while I trudge through the rain to go protest some warpig democrat or republican facist Bushtapo shithead.
I know! Not sure what I’ll do w/ myself … there’s always that lag time when you watch hockey every night and then it’s over and you feel like you’ve been left at the alter … 🙂
off season, I immerse myself into indy films and finding used ones that I “can’t live without” .. now I think I’ll also start some sketching and painting.
and heavy drinking of course.
And that other stuff like .. protesting and raising kidlets.
Miss Damnit Janet,
as long as there`s no monkey business.
BTW: Hooray for Code Pink
I got up in a really bad mood this morning thinking about some of my last night`s readings.
I`d been working on a protest photo montage for a project I`m working on & put it in a Iraq daily grief diary. I then saw some of the flowers I have at the house & decided to put my mind on the flowers instead of the flames. I`m putting a few here, almost in atonement for my heavy feelings this morning that may have bummed some people out.[I sure hope not.] These photos represent to me every father`s imagination on the good news that not only is he now a father, but that he will have a daughter. http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/7930/ladysingsthebluesdscn68525ci.jpg http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/7142/sadnessinredflatdscn68597pm.jpg
Love your stuff, and thanks for sharing w/us late night loons. Especially liked the one with the fuschia … which reminds me, we didn’t get any of that yet this year…
Thanks, I thought you guys were still trying to figure out what pink was & that you had decided to call it red.
Must be too much sage, but how do you sniff it?
Ya I got some of that right here on the porch. I thought you were talking about Thai sticks for a min. Especially when you suggested outdoor use only. I didn`t realize you got them tied like that. I got my sage from an Indian or a Hindu.
Maybe I`m too old to get your lingo sometimes.
NOT
RED Lebanese.
My buddies were hauling some inside their car tires. The packs broke open & it ended up as these perfectly spherical little balls of varying sizes.
When it finally ended up here we called it Rabbit Shit. AHH the sixties.
Btw. A hint. I`m self taught.
It`s a coolpix 5400 Nikon that I shot with last night. I have film SLR`s,
a Nikon F & a Nikon F2. i somtimes use a friends D2H Nikon digital, but I find it too bulky for everyday use.
I`m going to be using a Nikonos in a few days for all my underwater stuff, but it`s a film camera. I`ll have to shoot digital note the settings then shoot with the film camera in hopes that a few days later I could expect some halfway decent shots.
Thanks dada
Enjoy the veggie-tude and sleep well. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, I planted 2 lavenders myself yesterday in a bed I totally tore up and re-did to get rid of pervasive violets. Anyway… night!
You’re a pink lover deep down. It’s obvious IVG. Maybe you didn’t realize the extent, you weren’t conscious of all those pink seeds you were planting. But it’s clear to see with all these fine specimens, you DO have a lot of pink my friend … 😛
Lol… you lose track after time ya know. I just wish I had gotten that shot centered better, but the wind was really whipping up when I took most of these tonight, so I had to wait for still moments.
This next one I like very much, and it damn near qualifies as pink to me even though the species is purpurea.
gotta tell ya I sent the “Salad Fingers” link to a couple of friends…got the identical response from both of ’em: “yer seriously twisted”…made me proud it did…:{)
Yeah, I’ve seen most at one point or another, but need to revisit them. Who would have thought that when I was searching desperately for a cool link to post that night when I first learned how to do it, that I would gravitate towards that.
That’s the stuff Olivia finds worrying about me, I guess. And I merely recommended The Latest John Waters to MM the other day. And I didn’t even mention Begotten which is one of my all time fave freak outs, right along with Buñuel’s L’âge d’or.
as well… was it pretty small? The wild ones I’ve seen are pretty tiny compared to the stuff we plant. Need to look at that picture again to study the leaves better, because I think you may be on to something there.
That could well be it, given the info on that page. I wonder if you caught them before they really open up much, but given that pic of the leaves and all, it makes perfect sense to me. Would love to get some of that going in our garden. I take it this was from this afternoon’s hike?
I told C about your time in the peat bog and he immediately asked if there were cranberries, lol. I think it sounds fascinating, just the sort of nature hike I’d really get into. I’m not that great at wildflower idents unless they’ve got some cultivated cousin I know.
That photo was priceless. Gotta love DJ. Sure wish I had her energy and tireless sense of humor despite it all.
I’m winding down and working a bit over at the b-thingie. Weekends are too short and yesterday was a big labor day around here in the garden. Lots of stuff really starting to pop now, so stay tuned.
The delphs are revving up and going great guns right now, so have to get more pics as they pop. I want to do a lot more with the look of the place, which means learning more html than my currently meager knowledge. But Olivia’s helping out fantastically in that department, both as a resource and “reminder.” I’ll get it soon.
Hope to have a new post up sometime tonight, so stop by again and say hey.
Good night.
Hi, Andi! Goodnight, Andi! Sweet dreams!
Bet you’re pretty lonely there w/out Bu.
yeah, I miss her a lot…we spend a lot of time together since my studio is here. Unfortunate situation, but she doesn’t seem to be to bothered by it…although, I believe she’d rather be here than there…:{)
And of course she’d rather be there. I’d come and take her place while she’s gone if I could … 🙂
what a nice thing to say. Put a smile on my face…:{)
I’d enjoy your company. I suspect that Mr. O would probably not be pleased to have you gone…:{)
She’ll be back sometime tomorrow. The only real positive in the situation is that she never has to be boarded when I travel…if xso can’t watch her, I have a dog-sitter-type person that comes by the house and looks after her.
And I like putting smiles on faces …
Hmmm … he might miss me lol. 😉 I’ve never been out your way.
Any interesting finds tonight?
Boulder’s very liberal…sota like Berkeley w/ mtns. Lots of beautiful country that’s quite different from where you are…
Did find this disturbing image of Rick Santorum auditioning for a new career as a televangelist…seersucker thursday in the senate it was…what a maroon! :{)
He looks muppet-y.
How big (pop-wise) is Boulder? Is it on the smaller side?
75K+- in the summer…not counting tourists. :{P
d … big time.
Pleasant REI dreams 🙂
“Hey there” 🙂
Okay I’m getting on my monkey pj pants.
Monkey pj pants? Do you have a picture?
I can assure you they are not pants made out of monkeys. 🙂
Some type of joe boxer type… blue with a bunch of monkey faces on it. I may photograph myself in pink gear on spans across the rivers of America… but I will not photograph my jammies. 🙂
I did shoot myself in a pink slip but I am too sober to post that right now. 🙂
😉
I figure what the hell. NSA has my phone tapped. Military men video tape me on bridges. … and it’s not likes it’s a two piece.
That’s a peace sign Sharpied on the front by Danni.
🙂
Well I’m trying not to “roll”.
My husband is now having “kittens” ROFL!
Are you kidding me?? LOL I sometimes feel sorry that he has to put up with me and doings 🙂
Maybe O will let you borrow some of her feathers.
I’ve got my own as you can imagine!!
🙂
CodePink and Feather Boas go hand in hand ya know
Right DJ? 😉
No way O-se! I’m “smart” enough to know that I’m still learning 🙂
But I am so glad that there is CodePink out there… I just sorta fell into it but it does suit me very well.
Medea said some very kind things to me about my energy and smile… that I will also carry with me while I trudge through the rain to go protest some warpig democrat or republican facist Bushtapo shithead.
and no IndyLib around to see it 😉
She’s gonna be so mad!
Wow. I’m almost speechless there, DJ! You rock, babe! Oh, and nice cocktail dress ya got there. 🙂
Vavoom!
ONE. MORE. HOCKEY. GAME!!! Then what, Olivia??
I know! Not sure what I’ll do w/ myself … there’s always that lag time when you watch hockey every night and then it’s over and you feel like you’ve been left at the alter … 🙂
off season, I immerse myself into indy films and finding used ones that I “can’t live without” .. now I think I’ll also start some sketching and painting.

Dear Knucklehead, wow. Both kids and the spouse liked those flowers. My son instantly saw the faces and thinks your a “really good artist”.
Those are really something! Wow!
Love your stuff, and thanks for sharing w/us late night loons. Especially liked the one with the fuschia … which reminds me, we didn’t get any of that yet this year…
Which ones are the fuschia?
I understand when you guys are sad, you can hear “The Cry Of The Loons”.
Thanks, I thought you guys were still trying to figure out what pink was & that you had decided to call it red.
Must be too much sage, but how do you sniff it?
Like incense … dried and bundled … I haven’t done this yet, but there are others here who are quite taken w/ its aroma. 🙂
about sage smuge sticks…wrapped and dried and then lit and burned similar to incense…pic of the homegrown here…recommended for outdoor use only.
Ya I got some of that right here on the porch. I thought you were talking about Thai sticks for a min. Especially when you suggested outdoor use only. I didn`t realize you got them tied like that. I got my sage from an Indian or a Hindu.
Maybe I`m too old to get your lingo sometimes.
NOT
loooong time since I’ve heard that…next thing ya know you’ll be reminiscing about Blond Moroccan and the Marrakesh Express…one old head to another…:{)
Sniff sniff? Hmmm. Yeah, that’s a term I haven’t heard in a dog’s age either. Was so good I forgot what it’s like.
RED Lebanese.
My buddies were hauling some inside their car tires. The packs broke open & it ended up as these perfectly spherical little balls of varying sizes.
When it finally ended up here we called it Rabbit Shit. AHH the sixties.
Btw. A hint. I`m self taught.
I took this one of my teacher last night.
Thank you for your kindness both of you’
http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/9201/yourbrotherdscn68429oq.jpg
Your teacher is Jerry Garcia? 🙂
He`s got all his fingers.
What does your teacher teach? He reminds me of a photograph that a nearby gemstone healer showed me of their teacher.
I wish I knew something about healing.
The only heeling I know about involves training a dog.
You using a digcam or film?…really like that B&W shot.
It`s a coolpix 5400 Nikon that I shot with last night. I have film SLR`s,
a Nikon F & a Nikon F2. i somtimes use a friends D2H Nikon digital, but I find it too bulky for everyday use.
I`m going to be using a Nikonos in a few days for all my underwater stuff, but it`s a film camera. I`ll have to shoot digital note the settings then shoot with the film camera in hopes that a few days later I could expect some halfway decent shots.

Great pix KNUCKLEHEAD!
Gotta go hit the couch and be a tator tot!
Ciao for Niao!
Enjoy the veggie-tude and sleep well. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, I planted 2 lavenders myself yesterday in a bed I totally tore up and re-did to get rid of pervasive violets. Anyway… night!
Another pink flower I forgot we had … so here’s to the fans of pink around here.
I keep finding more of this color all the time around here … hmmm.
You’re a pink lover deep down. It’s obvious IVG. Maybe you didn’t realize the extent, you weren’t conscious of all those pink seeds you were planting. But it’s clear to see with all these fine specimens, you DO have a lot of pink my friend … 😛

This is a great photo too.
Smells like potpouri eh. Or is that, sounds like?
Centered? As long as one is in a garden, that`s centered enough for me.
And as for As long as one is in a garden, that`s centered enough for me. Amen to that, and I’m not a praying kinda guy. Does me good at least.
How ’bout lavender …
This Sage?
http://img115.imageshack.us/img115/3177/notsagedscn63191uf.jpg
lavender works.
Are ya? 🙂
I suspect our preferences are, shall we say, different…:{)
Okay … I guess you’re safe from my nagging then. 😉
Not that it’d work…I don’t take to it…:{)
Don’t worry, you’re always on my good side…:)
In between visits tonight I ate leftover pizza and we listened to One From the Vault, which C spontaneously plucked from the collection. Nuff said.
gotta tell ya I sent the “Salad Fingers” link to a couple of friends…got the identical response from both of ’em: “yer seriously twisted”…made me proud it did…:{)
Lol… so I’m not so bad, eh? Did you check out the “Making Fiends” one as well?
but I think I prefer SF…have you gone back and looked at his other stuff in the series? It’s all very twisted…me likee…:{)
Yeah, I’ve seen most at one point or another, but need to revisit them. Who would have thought that when I was searching desperately for a cool link to post that night when I first learned how to do it, that I would gravitate towards that.
That’s the stuff Olivia finds worrying about me, I guess. And I merely recommended The Latest John Waters to MM the other day. And I didn’t even mention Begotten which is one of my all time fave freak outs, right along with Buñuel’s L’âge d’or.
It’s pink for us color blind folk. I kid you not.
Did you have a good w/e?
Hi Olivia! Pretty good except for the quirks of my dysfunctional family. And yours?
Slipin’ in the back door…keep an eye on him O, I seem to recall a previous raid and an empty beer cooler…did b2/ II make it a happy FD for ya?
I think he’s already gone d … he was fast!
Any ideas?
Ya got me stumped there. I have no clue, but it is sure gorgeous. Ah yellow… next best thing to orange and red!
Needed to do something different, so wildflowers it is.
Do you think it might be some sort of wild snapdragon-y type? I’m going to google.
as well… was it pretty small? The wild ones I’ve seen are pretty tiny compared to the stuff we plant. Need to look at that picture again to study the leaves better, because I think you may be on to something there.
Plant itself was about 12″ max …
what do you think?
That could well be it, given the info on that page. I wonder if you caught them before they really open up much, but given that pic of the leaves and all, it makes perfect sense to me. Would love to get some of that going in our garden. I take it this was from this afternoon’s hike?
I captured a few … but b/c they’re wildflowers I’m not really familiar w/ them.
I got some more neat things from today’s hike — peat for instance. And baby pinecones (I think) which resemble little red roses (yeah, I know I know).
I told C about your time in the peat bog and he immediately asked if there were cranberries, lol. I think it sounds fascinating, just the sort of nature hike I’d really get into. I’m not that great at wildflower idents unless they’ve got some cultivated cousin I know.
… saying not to pick the berries .. $150 fine I think.
Here’s the link to it btw. And some photos.
Maybe you should that C for me, for all those pix he’s taken! 🙂
and give us a new table?
This one’s loadin’ kinda slow…:{*)
Thx dada, and Olivia! This page has been real pissy to me tonight and loading slow and incompletely. Thought it was just me and my dial up.
Oh, and new post up at the b-thingie now. Whew, blogger didn’t eat it tonight.
Nope, but it’s gorgeous!
I saw you were lurking. How was your w/e?
It’s been pretty good — very lazy, though. Family Man would be proud, in fact. I’ve basically done nothing but read.
How was yours?
Whatcha reading?
I hear you shuffling around in here somewhere with those Chuck Taylors of yours.
Hey, IVG! Yup, I’ve been shuffling around. I bounced into the cafe and then got a phone call, but I’m taking full credit for DJ posting that picture.
How are you tonight?
That photo was priceless. Gotta love DJ. Sure wish I had her energy and tireless sense of humor despite it all.
I’m winding down and working a bit over at the b-thingie. Weekends are too short and yesterday was a big labor day around here in the garden. Lots of stuff really starting to pop now, so stay tuned.
I just went over to check out your blog — it looks great! And I love the name, too. The delphiniums are gorgeous!
The delphs are revving up and going great guns right now, so have to get more pics as they pop. I want to do a lot more with the look of the place, which means learning more html than my currently meager knowledge. But Olivia’s helping out fantastically in that department, both as a resource and “reminder.” I’ll get it soon.
Hope to have a new post up sometime tonight, so stop by again and say hey.
Well, g’night all! It’s late here in NY.
Nice to be able to wave at ya across the bar. Hope you have a good week ahead of ya!
Have a good Monday! 🙂
Here!
