I'm definitely in a photos-of-things rut and I'm hoping to go out and FIND something for a photo tomorrow. Regardless, I like how this turned out. Taking good pictures of lava lamps is tricky. The photo looks better on Flickr though--in fact, this new Facebook uploader is making all my pictures darker and I'm not pleased.

Member of our uke group Hamish had a solo gig at a local folk club, so I went along to support him, despite feeling a bit under the weather. I think my lack of luster is reflected in my daily image. It was a good gig though

With 10 Frozen water bottles and 6 frozen Gatorades, we headed out into the 89 degree weather to Disney's Epcot.
First ride was Mission Space. They had two choices, green team which is geared more for children and motion sick sensitive people and the orange team for thrill seekers. We asked the Disney worker if people generally get sick and he answered quickly 'oh ya'. The Disney worker beside him said 'look, go big or go home' so we went big.
While standing in line The Captain was giving the very worried Mrs. Captain a pep talk. He was all 'You're Mrs. Captain now! You're a new woman and you can ride these rides and not get sick and have fun! Us Captain's are tough and since you're a Captain, you can handle this!' At one point we asked one of the workers what we should do if we feel sick. He said to keep your head back, don't try to lift your head or look to the side and under no condition should you close your eyes. Good advice.
So we get in the ride. There were barf bags right there. Bad omen. I sat beside Mrs. Captain. So we have lift off and Special K and the Captain start screaming and yelling about the space controls and 'take her up easy' and all that geek space talk while me and Mrs. Captain are screaming because we are terrified. I yell to her to breathe! breath! and she yells back thank you! I was forgetting! The g-forces were so strong I couldn't smile and to lift my head even if I wanted, would have been impossible. The ride comes to an end and no one puked!!! It was amazing! We walked off the ride laughing and shaking.
Next ride was the Ellen ride, some boring show about energy. After 30 minutes of sitting on this 'ride', I look over and the Captain appears to be sleeping. No kidding, it was that boring! Only he wasn't sleeping. I'll give you one guess what he was doing. Yep, he was puking... The Captain, coming from tough stock where no ride is too scary... The Captain, puking from the Ellen ride that's slower and more boring than It's a Small World.
So I went to the ride attendant. I didn't know what to do or how to help him. He wasn't moving and I was afraid new riders were waiting in the wings. The ride attendant, a DISNEY ride attendant tells the Captain, you got 3 minutes to get off or you ride again for 40 minutes. Later, we joked that the Captain should have thrown down his vomit filled hat at that point. I mean, thanks for the help ride attender man. We just saved you from having to call in the vomit police and this is what you say to a man with egg in his mustache?
The Captain manages to get up and we make our way to the closest bathroom. Poor guy.
We teased him relentlessly for the rest of the day. We thought it was so ironic that he tried building up his wife's tolerance to rides and he's the one who ends up hurling and on the Ellen ride no less.
Today's pic is these delicious soft raspberry candies we bought in Norway. Now if I had my choice, the most memorable part of the day is of course The Captain and the Ellen ride but who takes a pic of that AND who wants to see a pic of that? So the next most memorable are these candies. So there you have it.

“Hey Mom! I’m gonna try to poo on the potty…bring me something to read! Pweeeze…”
He gave it a shot, needless to say he didn’t ‘make a deposit’. (yes, he’ll hate me for this photo later in life, especially since I shared it with the WHOLE internet.)
I'm being extra careful about what I eat. Anything with added sugar is out. So I'm having to read the ingredients labels to check for unwanted items. Its surprising just how much sugar gets added to practically everything.

Today's Project 365 photo is of the 'new' Limited Edition cans of Ballarat Bitter.
I love that they have replicated the old label (even if the printing of the Phoenix logo is crappy)
Looking forward to cracking a several cans with my family over Christmas.
From The Ballarat Courier:
Ballarat Bitter release short, but sweet
BY JENNIFER GREIVE
20 Dec, 2011
BALLARAT Bitter cans have made their long-awaited return to Ballarat pubs, but only for a limited time.
Ballarat Bitter kegs were released to 26 licensed premises last month – the first time the beer had been available on tap for decades.
Now, the iconic beer is available to purchase in cans, just in time for Christmas. The Western Hotel publican Dan Cronin said the cans were available in limited release at pubs across Ballarat.
But, he said the beer would only be available on tap for another week.
“Having it on tap has been great – it’s brought people back into pubs,” Mr Cronin said.
“We’ve had everyone come in – groups of young guys and those who remember drinking it but haven’t tried it for many years.”
The Ballarat Brewing Company was formed in 1895 by the amalgamation of the Phoenix Brewery of James Coghlan and the Royal Standard Brewery of William Tulloch.
The iconic “Bertie” character became part of the Ballarat Bitter brand in 1925. Ballarat Bertie is the official mascot of the HMAS Ballarat.
More of the City's Christmas decorations for tonight's Project 365 photo.
I went out to take a few shots of the "reindeer" in Sturt Street, but was too early as the lights hadn't come on. I'll try again tomorrow.
The Town Hall is decorated every year with the red and green on the clock faces, the wreath over the door and this year there is holly on the windows at street level.
This photo is an HDR composite of 4 separate photos of different exposures.
One thing I'd never noticed until tonight is the stained glass on the Central Square verandah.
The projection on the front was for White Ribbon Day
