Because the Rooney family decided to finally retire Mean Joe's #75 tonight I wanted to go Irish, but work was crazy this week and I didn't have much time to research so I lamed out. I grabbed a twice baked potato(Irish-ish?) and some Herb'd Risotto Cakes (Italiany?) from Central Market with a Guinness. The Guinness was BLECK!!! Time to pound the f'ing Ravens!!!!

Because you are BEAUTIFUL and you inspire me daily! Thank you for the inspiration.

Because too much black is still not enough black.

because my mom jinxed me.

 

Just yesterday she was going on about how healthy I am, and how cool it is that I have not been sick once in my first 4 months.

 

Um, well, she should have knocked on wood...we are in a hotel room, far from home, I have a really bad cold and an eye that will not stop running:(((. I feel crappy and am going to make everyone go home early tomorrow...my mom would have gone home tonight if she could have I think.

 

No wonder I was up most of last night. Being sick sucks. Sniffling sucks. Bring snot nosed sucks. I am not cut out for this. Ick.

birthday letters, replies, just because.

Bricklayer's Arms English Pub Shoreditch London Corner of Rivington Street and Charlotte Road EC2 Closed and Boarded-up because of Covid-19 Lockdown. Sad Sight

...because I'm worried he will look like a Dante clone if I get the C faceup, which I really like.

If I get this guy in this faceup, maybe October will lay off of everyone else's boyfriends (since we know Karsh is doomed to October's affections when he gets here, too). Maybe this guy can be her man!

 

And he can be either blondish or ginger, and I won't have a whole cabinet of dark haired, vibrant eyed boys (which is my male BJD beauty fixation).

 

And Iplehouse is just a joy to deal with! Their customer service is so attentive, and their turn around times are very prompt...Dante was ready to ship before I even paid him off (and I was making payments every other week)!

 

I'm delightfully doomed! JID Boris added to my wishlist!

 

Edited to add: I am *so disappointed* because Iplehouse changed the B faceup to something different, something less unique. I'm moping now...I could really see this guy as October's boyfriend. Now I have to rethink my plans...again!

Because my camera has slow burning ,it didn't catch as quick the process shown there ,but her head was in the lil' box ,not in this pic.

Oh well ,perhaps very clever tricks kept her head bent down unseen,lols.

Because patterns give me peace

Because Simon just posed for a portrait Raphaël, his friend, wanted his own. Working for WWF, Gare de Lyon, Paris.

Always gotta have a tech manual I case the nacells ever break down the warp drive bubble

because we all need to feel like a princess now and then

because of his chubbiness little Brain can´t fly with only 1 balloon... and he still finds it difficult with 3...

Because of the wide angle lens used, Mooney Falls looks quite small in this picture. The falls behind us are quite large at 190 feet high.

I'm so strong ,i know you, I can barely move, but i like it,,,

Because Friday the 13th is so much more than movies!

.. also probably because a picture of me coming out of my mother's hole isn't probably allowed. And a picture of sperm-me beating the other sperms does not exist. Boohoo. Also because my year sucked like hell and I'm still hoping it'd get better!

 

Cheers to the end of 2013!

Because you can never be too careful...

This past summer I wanted to take some really rad dance pics. And I did. With the help of self-timer cameras, tripods and over 90 degree heat. I managed to do the whole shoot, edit, and get a blister.

Five deposits of volcanic ash have been located and sampled in Pratt County. The thickest of these (pictured) has 14 feet of volcanic ash is exposed in a pit.

Have you ever rolled around in the dirt just because it’s there? Ever wonder where that dirt came from? Me too!

 

Greetings. I’m Russ Dale, a transplant to the Gateway to the High Plains from Denver, Colorado. I’m the new guy at the Pratt Tribune. I’m also new to Pratt, but “from” Pratt in a cosmic sense, as my great-great grandfather Whitney Bailey arrived in the county in 1887 at the age of 15. He was a wheat farmer in McPherson and Saratoga Townships.

 

I enjoy learning about the past, especially about where I live. I am a history buff who is heavily interested in genealogy and geology. And I roll around in dirt.

 

I was at the Pratt County Historical Museum one day pouring over historic maps of the county. Wallowing in a pile of old maps is how I roll. Pratt County landmarks like Skunk Johnson’s Cave, Pilot Knob and Arrowhead Hill made my imagination whirl. Fascinating.

 

Then something called “Volcanic Ash Pit” caught my curiosity. The tiny drawing on this aged 100-year-old map was akin to a modern orbital satellite photo of the fictional Sarlacc pit, the Great Pit of Carkoon, in “Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi!” A nerdy rock hound from Colorado, a geologic paradise in its own right, I am in love with rocks and the stories they tell. And, being a dirt flounderer, I immediately knew I needed to find out more about this pit. Who doesn’t like to visit pits? Pits are exciting. Pits are amazing. If I had a nickel for ever pit I’ve visited I would have a gaggle of nickels.

 

I scoured over satellite imagery of Pratt County in search of the pit. I searched the internets. I spoke with local old-timers. I became obsessed with this mysterious oddity.

 

A friend of a cousin’s cousin made me privy to an enigmatic area called the “silica pit,” a place in the county where generations of children played in the dirt. Corroborating this first-hand knowledge with information gleaned from a 1973 Kansas Geological Survey Bulletin #205 and a thesis about the “chemical fingerprinting” of volcanic tephra found in Kansas by Brian T. David of Kansas State University, I was pointed to what I believed was the “Volcanic Ash Pit.”

 

I went there. All of my pit dreams came true.

 

My eyes did behold the majesty of the “Volcanic Ash Pit!” It was an old pit with layers of volcanic ash 14 feet thick along the walls! The ash, essentially fine shards of white to grey glass spewed from a volcano, was once excavated from the site and used in concrete for roads. Others uses for “silica” included soaking up blood at meat packing plants and in bathroom cleansers. Long abandoned, this pit was now just a hole in the ground inhabited by animals and plants.

 

Where did this “dirt” come from? The ash, from an erupting volcano, was carried by winds over Kansas many years ago and settled to the ground. Streams washed the ash into shallow depressions.

 

Could this Pearlette ash bed be Lava Creek B Tuff of the Yellowstone Caldera, the last major eruption from the Yellowstone volcanic center 640,000 years ago? Was it derived from the explosion of Valle Grande Caldera supervolcano in north-central New Mexico roughly 1.2 million years ago? That was a time when humans were an endangered species! I am filled with questions.

 

The debate is still out on the origin of the ash and where it fits on the geologic time scale. Regardless of its origin, it is a superb geologic site. Especially for Kansas. It is doubly superb it exists in Pratt County Kansas.

 

My mission complete and personal dirt quota satisfied, I prepared for another learning adventure into the surrounding area in which my ancestors, and myself, call home.

Because I really like these photos.

 

So I started saving for a new camera. I'm looking for another job. Because I'm no good at saving, I've decided to start "collecting money". I like to collect things; nesting dolls, movie tickets, DVDs, quarters. Its just a thing. So maybe this new outlook will inspire me to save, eh em, collect.

 

Deciding which camera to get is another story. I don't feel like I'm at the part of my life that I can or should spend $2,000 on a full frame camera. I'll probably just update to a higher end Canon. And my oh my how I'd love a 35mm f/2.

 

Well that's my rant for this morning. Now to have a look at all of your lovely photos. :)

I Tumbled today.

Because buses wren't running on time, lots of buses came in two's, 922 carried a full load after picking up many passengers while 919 arrives almost empty. Not something you see everyday.

Because boring old wood grain was too main stream

 

“When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubt”

When I saw the window screen placed on top of the laundry tub, I knew something was up. No way someone in my house (other than me) would be washing window screens ... and it wasn't me. I just wondered what type of creatures were perched below and if that window screen was for their protection or mine.

 

I guess when you have boys, you should always expect that something crusty, slimy or warty (is that a word?) will eventually find its way into your house. I just hope that predilection to bring home such things ends when they begin dating. ;-)

Because a sunny Sunday skiing madly at Big White Ski Resort with your ❤️ is one of the greatest ways to spend one of our days on the planet ! 🌞
