And don’t worry he didn’t use that knife! I have been begging Bj to shave his head for YEARS, just to try it, but he never would. If not right before a road trip in the summer, than when right? So he went and had it done today. He called me after to tell me he looks ridiculous, but I think it’s cute. We’ll see how he feels after a few days. Yeah!

What two coins when added together equal .30, but one is not a nickel?

Edited to add: This post was by Sciarrino. We are testing out her being able to post because she is going to be the guest blogger for ten days. I hate it when I go to a blog and they have nothing up for days. And Sciarrino is very, very clever so I’m excited to see what she shares with you. Everyone be nice to Sciarrino and say hi!

oh also does anyone know how to get it say at the bottom: posted by ____________?

So what photography equipment is coming on my trip? I spent a good portion of today trying to figure that out. Of course my D50 (can I just say how happy I still am with this camera since

Dill in my mom’s garden. SICK! I love this lens. And another new toy (shot with that lens and the speedlight):


It’s a Polaroid Land Camera Automatic 100. Unfortunately they don’t make batteries for this anymore. I’m going to do some searches to see if I can find one, but I won’t get one before the trip. This site has a lot of great information about the Land Camera. We tried rigging up three AAA to get the right voltage, but couldn’t get it to stay. That black picture was what we got. I wanted to find a Polaroid that would take some of the expired film I have for my DayLab so I hit up all the thrift stores. I ended up also getting a couple of One Steps, and I’ll take one of those and 600 film that I picked up today. I am determined to get that Land Camera going when I get back though.  And play with my DayLab more, it’s so wicked cool really. I just have to find some place that will turn digital photos into slides for me, anybody know of a good place?

I also have a Sony Digital HandyCam from back in the day. It was the hugest purchase of my life. I remember using all the savings I had built up from when I first started my savings account (like 8) and cashing in pennies and everything. I have neglected it for years, but I really want to play with it, unfortunately the eject system is acting up a bit. I had that repaired once, so I’m not thinking it’s looking to hopeful to bring it. We’ll see. If I do get it turned on though I could upload some classic Sackett video. Ah good times.
