Today

One of those days. I stayed up too late again last night. Watched the fighting Illini get whooped by Ohio State. At least they made a game of it at the end. I was actually kinda glad to see Weber sit Shaun Pruitt for the game. I don't know what's going on, but between he and the other senior on the team... it just ain't workin. You can hum "There's Always Tomorrow" at this point if you want.

This morning I took the coolest picture of the moon sitting behind our church building. Then I went to put it on the computer and for some reason I can't get it to open with my Kodak software. I can get the picture on the computer, but I wanted to crop it a bit first. That bummed me out. I think we might get photoshop elements eventually.

Otherwise... it's one of those days. Had breakfast with Tom at the Brew Ha; had a meeting with someone from a nursing home; ordered a new AV cart; made some other phone calls; opened the mail. You know, it's almost always a good day when all the mail goes directly into the garbage. I wish there were more days like that. Otherwise it's either bills, or it's something I put on the mail pile and wait until it's out of date and THEN it goes in the garbage. Mail is not one of my favorite things.

I did get another friend request on my facebook thing. And something about movies. But I just cannot seem to understand that system. I must be too old.

Well, this is just this. I am still bummed because I was hoping to post the moon-over-fairview pic at lunch, and still couldn't get it to work. Dangit.

If it is just simple editing you're after try Picasa. It works great for what it does and the price is right.

Or if you don't want to mess with it and want a second opinion, you can e-mail it to me and tell me what to crop. I don't know if my software is wonderful, but I could take a stab at it.

I agree with Tom - try Picasa.

also, I've got a great picture I call "Moon over My Hammy" that I took at a Denny's.

Thanks for the info, gents. We'll be trying something else, but for now we have all our files and whatnot on with kodak. So... soon as I kick off my shoes I'll give 'er another go.

Well...I guess you're unbummed now, yes?

And I didn't say it above, but that was a cool shot (maybe not cooler than snot...but still cool ;) ).

Robin,
Yes, I am unbummed. I never did figure out the problem, but my computer went all blue-screen on me last night, and when I restarted it, everything worked fine. Whatever. :)
