Trailers

Day 21...
My supervisor was nice enough to let me off of work today because I have to work all weekend. Two 14 hour days ahead of me. Then continue through all of next week. Fun! I'm gonna miss out on the UFC fights on Ft. Hood this weekend too. Sucks!!

So, I had some time on my hands today. Took the boy out driving so he can have some more practice under his belt before the driving test. As we were driving I spotted these rusted old trailers. I had him stop so the wife and I could take some photos. I figured it would be a good subject for her dept of field project she's doing in her Photography class.

Asian Lanterns

Asian Lanterns

Day 20
At a loss of ideas today. It's only day twenty. This might be a little tougher than I though. It didn't help that it was a long day at work but it could have been worse.
Temperature dropped like crazy. At 0630 it was 57 degrees and by 0645 while doing our warm up exercises it dropped down to 40 and continued getting colder as the day went by. After work we tried to grill some steaks but since I have a gas grill, that didn't work out. The propane froze. Dinner was still cooked and tasted great. Then my buddies and the wife watched the Roast of Flava Flave. Most definitely the best one I've seen so far. So the night came to a close and I looked out to the patio and decided to take a quick shot of the lanterns. I've taken photos like this before so I don't feel its a completely new shot.

Dig Dug


Dig Dug

The Nineteenth.
0430 in the morning. Driving to work. One of the last lights before I drive on post to start my work day. Took this with my phone. After editing I realized the green traffic lights looked like the eyes of the Dig Dug character.
Sorry. That's all I got for today. I figured I should take a picture early because I already knew I would be too tired by the end of the day to try and do anything creative after work. Tomorrow might be another cell phone pic as well. I'm looking at a 14 hour day minimum tomorrow.

Hello


Hello

My name is Planters Nvts.
17/365
So today I decided to change my Gamertag on XBox. It cost me 10 bucks to do it too. What a rip off. It used to be "A Br0wn aYe". Aye pronounced like "eye" Over time it lost its humor since most people read it as "A" and didn't get it. The pun being, "You were killed by a brown eye","you were pummeled by a brown eye" or "you beat down a brown eye". Halo players get the joke.
Now my new name is "Planters Nvts" The V in place of the U. Got that idea from a scene in this classic movie.
If you can't tell; that's not a screenshot. I took a picture of my TV screen. Yeah, I know my choice for names might seem a bit childish, considering that I'm a 32 year old man. Oh well. I might grow up sometime soon......Maybe not.

NetFlix

NETFLIX

Did absolutely nothing today. Woke up really late cuz I spent last night drinking, got sick right after I went to bed. Serves me right for mixing beer, wine and I think I had some liquor.

So back to today. Did nothing. Wife and I set up a NetFlix account on my Xbox and watched movies all day. Didn't even have an idea of what i was gonna do for today's photo. So I took a screen shot of my NetFlix app for my phone.

Dilemma

Fifteen of Three Sixty Five
Tonight was date night with my lady. Kids were at their aunties house and the wife and I went out to a movie and dinner. The Dilemma. Eh... It was OK I guess. It was cold and wet out but dinner and the company was good though.
