31's Grossest Picture of the Month

Those, my friends, are flies, dead flies. They're dead flies from a recent fly infestation at 2422.

New Thangs

Steppin' out of the comfort zone. Trying new thangs.

And Happy Bday to mi papa. This has become the Bday blog.

Beast

Tribute to the uncontrollable beast. Another July Bday. So many!

Raising every 15

Several good photos from the past few days. It's real tough to just choose just 1!! I was on the brink of posting 2 tonight, but then it'd be verge's 32 and not 31 so f that. It's almost like calling it Ocean's 12 and not 11. Wait a second...

Anyway, I had a nice pic of back-to-school night at Tech (which is a completely diff. blog post in itself - look for it on the edublog soon), and I got a buncha good photos from Frances' killer karoake bday.

I figured out how to take dope night photos! Look out photography world.

Pad see you? I SEE YOU!

Happy Birthday to the fly young lady I see everyday through my classroom window. I see you right now! You're reading the middle of your computer screen!

Goin' hard til the sun's gone

(I wanted to capture the essence of Willard in the night-time. But, as you can tell, failed. I don't have dope night-time photography skills like Camille yet. Camille, you need to teach me how to take cool night-time pics on my Canon. It looked good on the screen, but right when I pressed the button, this is what came out.)

ps. Will got a huge (bloody!) gash.
Josh's thighs hurt from shafing.
Rick got scratched in the face.
Paul tweaked an ankle.
I pulled a muscle and taught w/ a (mr) g-limp today.

As Peezy said: this is like basketball sandlot.

My new toy

The Kensington Presenter

Previously, I used the iClicker prepackaged with macbooks. The thing kept me tethered to the front of the classroom though; no range! I bought a new presenter remote. It came in a the week before Vegas. This thing's got distance! I can walk around the room, interact w/ my students, and control the board in front of the room - all at the same time. This is crucial! It's also got a sweet lazer to point at things (or students). It's definitely got this teach super excite.

Happy 22 L!

Lisa it's your birthday. Happy birthday Lisa!

Photographs that didn't make the cut today:

1. Picture of traffic on the 101 that delayed me for an hour (FACK!)

2. Picture of motto written on a blackboard at the deli near Lisa's place:

"Life is short. Eat dessert first!!"

Made me feel better about eating those 2 scoops before consuming actual dinner.
