Like I’ve said in the past — making new humans is no joke. Then, once they get here safely, there’s still no telling what myriad health issues they may have, some matters of life and death, some more minor and cosmetic. Not for the weak of heart and soul. Thank whoever you think is responsible [...]

Goodbye ’till September, Slothful Living…
Posted in camera morte, photography, tagged exercise on May 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Working out. Yuck. I like exercising when a useful task is being completed. For instance, helping a friend/loved one move. As long as the movee is properly thankful for your help, it is a pleasure, and lifting, climbing and moving have real meaning. I also enjoy taking the girls for a stroll — harder work [...]
Socialites

Have taken the girls out a bunch of times this week for different social events. Monday was a power mom & young’uns extravaganza at the zoo — Lynn & Elana, Gayle & Alexander, Cyndi & Sylvie, me and Beenie and Mimi. The sky kept threatening to explode on us. There were huge dark gray clouds [...]

Yes, that’s right. Camera Morte is now in the video business. Be afraid.

Things are good here in Baltimore. The days chug along. Beenie and Mimi are growing like tumble weeds, playing in their sandbox and trudging sand through the house despite my best efforts. I continue my blogging, despite no money being made from the venture. I have to think, though, that one day, I will [...]
Car Wash III

This is typical — I’m getting bored with the food blog. Does this make me a bad person? It isn’t as if I don’t like writing. I do. I love it, in fact. But coming up with a fresh idea every few days ain’t so easy. Maybe I’m not meant to be a professional writer. [...]
Car Wash II

Took the girls for a lovely stroll this morning. The rain dried up and the sky is clear blue with smatterings of marshmallow clouds. I am feeling quite unsatisfied of late. I don’t think this is a bad thing, necessarily. Usually when I am like this I try to do things to be more productive. [...]

I can’t remember when I wrote last. There has been a hiccup in the developing springtime, which is simultaneously welcomed and cursed. Welcomed because it brings back some cool, rainy weather, which I like. I don’t like swampy hot Maryland weather, which was beginning to happen a bit in the past few weeks. Cursed because [...]
I read about that…

Sometimes you think you know what’s going on if you read this blog. But I only talk about a few things, every few days here. Not everything. Recently, I’ve been having conversations with a variety of people, some I’m closer to than others, and I bring up a subject and they say, “Oh, yeah. I [...]
Winter Wasn’t So Bad
Posted in baltimore, endless winter, photography, spring, tagged late winter on May 4, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Today was so bright and cool and sunny. I’m having some regrets over losing the winter. There isn’t much to look forward to weather-wise except summer, and summer is a molten hot, swampy stink hole in Baltimore. Though there are some great thunderstorms in the summertime. But late winter holds surprises. Random seventy degree [...]
