Just … Maybe?

I have finished up with all but five of the remaining manual submissions to Picture Yourself now. I approved all of the pending photos. I can’t even begin to tell you how thrilling it is for me to see all of the photos coming in – they are all so great! But now that I’m almost all caught up, maybe … just maybe … I can blog about something else soon? Yes, I’ve been a little bit distracted this week, but I’m coming around.

As I look at this picture of me with Harry Potter, I just can’t help but wonder if that Nimbus 2000 was one of the vibrating ones…

I went and met with the H-Town bloggers for coffee yesterday and had a blast. Matter of fact, our little coffee gathering at 2pm lasted until almost 8pm. Yes, I think we can call it a success. I’ll write more about it later – I promise!

Never Question It…

Please, do not ever question the power of MovableType, especially when placed in the hands of people as talented as Kristine and her husband E. Why do I say this? Because Picture Yourself now has an online submission form that takes your pictures right in the MT, and from there all we have to do is approve them. It really doesn’t get much easier than that. I’m so happy! It’s all like a dream come true.

Interesting, Very Interesting…

Since I spent half the week suffering from a migraine, it’s nice to know that they are looking at the causes and new treatments. Good news indeed.

It’s All I Want…

I’m looking at the temperatures right now – High: 88°, Low: 60°, Current: 78°, Pollen: Moderate, Ozone: No warning. See? That’s all I want. However, I would like days like that in the middle of summer, rather than having to wait until September 21st for them. Demanding, I know. By now I would like my highs in the 70s – it is September after all.

The fact that the pollen is moderate is very important too. Normally it’s so high that being outdoors isn’t pleasant thanks to allergies. Not today – I’m sitting on the patio enjoying the weather, surfing in the shade while enjoying the sunshine. (Wireless. 802.11b. I highly recommend it.)

Really, that’s all I want. Then Houston would be a much better place in my eyes.

Fresh Finds…

I know I’ve been sort of distracted this week, between Ernie’s webgame and launching Picture Yourself, so it’s only appropriate that I spread the love and share some new to me but maybe not new to you finds…

:: Super Happy Fun Blog – I laughed so hard I almost cried when Brian said to me, “Don’t taunt the Super Happy Fun Blog!” (SNL skit … just laugh.) While you’re there, please be sure to read Proper Shopping Etiquette. I went to Wal-Mart earlier. Some of you really need lessons.
:: Reconstructed-mind – It’s such a beautiful site, and I love all of the pictures!

Matter of fact – my reason for linking to the next 3 is just that – Pictures! Pictures! Pictures!
:: Mr. Analogy
:: Jeff McCann
:: Candid Colors

So, enjoy them for a little while. I’ve got a lot of reading to catch up on myself – I’ve had a headache since Tuesday night and it has *finally* cleared up. What a relief!
