The best quote I ever heard about the dangers of perfectionism was: "If it ain't broke, fix it till it is." Because I create so incessantly, you could be excused for thinking I'm accepting of flaws. But that's nowhere near the case. In fact, the need to quit my endless tinkering is why I started this daily journal, all those years ago. When everything you write or photograph has to be done by the end of the day, you learn to let things go. I'm not talking about compromising quality – at least, I hope I'm not. What I'm intent on doing is living up to the immediacy of experiences. I'm always feeling with absolute intensity, more than is probably healthy, and every extra minute getting it across is eroding. The whole process is a translation of emotion. Just like you wouldn't be patient with close captions falling behind, or sluggish translation during peace talks – I don't like to drag out the paraphrasing from my mind to yours. Now, this is only a personal philosophy, of course. I know my obsessions, and how I start thinking it can all be corrected. Whatever way works for someone, I'm all for it. But as for me, I'm better at letting go.

Because of their considerable value ornamental, many Prunus species have been introduced to parts of the world to which they are not native, some becoming naturalised.
Il genere prunus ha una grande varietà di piante ornamentali, per le delicate fioriture, come alberelli nei parchi, viali e giardini.
Because of the problems with my USB-ports my favourite machine is being examined to see if anything can be done to fix it. So I might be without computer this weekend. I am getting a lot of stuff done now I am computerless so it is not really all that bad. But I miss you guys.
Take care, be good and smile.
I'LL BE BACK! (before you know it.)
Only one more day until the weekend!
...Because they're not nauseous like I am.

Because of construction at Cococay, our cruise itinerary was modified and that private island was replaced with Freeport on Grand Bahama Island. I think that people were generally fine, though a few were more vocal in their complaining. The captain during the session with guests and other crew leaders made a good point. We were a longer cruise and a shorter one that only went to Cococay and Nassau could not be well served with changing their itinerary. So we got to go to Freeport Harbour. We did not do any excursions, but walked around a bit in the shopping area right off the port. It is an industrial port with a dry dock - so from a boat geek POV, it was an excellent stop. Taken from onboard the Grandeur of the Seas and on terra firma at Freeport, Grand Bahama Island on Monday February 18th, 2019. These were from our Royal Caribbean Grandeur of the Seas for a 9 Night Southeast Coast & Bahamas Cruise (February 14th through the 23rd, 2019). The itinerary include stops in Charleston (SC), Port Canaveral (FL), Freeport (Grand Bahama Island), Nassau (Bahamas) and Miami (FL) before heading back to Baltimore.

Because of the high gas prices, I moved to a new house that's just 5 miles from work. With a little TLC it should fix up nicely.
via Instagram ift.tt/1GNWvPz Finally made myself a #brand, and then put it in our #camp logo, and then made a sticker. Because reasons. #scarab #Canada #tried #burningman #awesome
Because the light was so intense, I decided to play with some high key shots, with plans to experiment at home with some textures. Turns out, layered textures tend to work best with well-exposed shots... I might try experimenting with this one again later.
We had a great time at the wedding and reception that night. I had the chance to meet with some long lost university residence friends (Pasha, Julia, Katie) and played a couple rousing rounds of Boggle with TJ to end the night off.
Prepare yourselves for a long post.
I'm on my own this evening; Tom's at drums, mum's doing dog club. I'm at home, binge drinking tea and harboring a headache. This could either be because I'm not wearing my glasses or that I've got La Roux blaring. I'm going with the first one. I'm going to get my glasses.
Back. I'd put myself under a La Roux ban because I don't want to get sick of her before November, but iTunes keep throwing her up on shuffle.
I have a whole tea pot of tea to get through. This is not a good idea because I have a tiny bladder and constantly need the loo. That and I wont sleep. Again.
For the past two nights I've not slept well at all. I've been waking up at stupid o'clock in coughing fits. Caffeine will not help this, I'm sure.
I've had doctors and dentist all in one go today. Not so much fun. Actually, I like, I do quite like the dentist and wish I could go more often. I'd have awesome teeth then.
Again. Tea is going to affect this.
So this threw a spanner in the works because I've got loads of school work to do. Okay, even if I wasn't out this morning, Tumblr and Twitter would have distracted me. I've managed to make a start on a 3 page English essay I've got due on Monday. I say I've made a start - I've written two paragraphs. And I have a Psychology essay that's 3 weeks late. Oh well. If she's not lost my notes, I'd have done it already. She found my notes as well. She can't manage to lose something properly either.
I've been eating too much this holiday. Way too much. I don't even want to go into detail because I don't want to think about the gluttonous pig that I am.
Fatty.
I really love that extremely few of my real world friends have Tumblr. That way, I have such a variety of people to talk to, and they recommend me lots of different music. This is good.
I think I've run out of things to say.
Sorry I'm boring.
Ciao
This Albertsons was built on the site of a planned Lucky Savon store. As part of Albertsons merger with Lucky, this land site was purchased by Albertsons. This store never officially went beyond groundbreaking with Lucky because there were historical artifacts found during construction, delaying any further progression of construction by Lucky.
Consequently, this store as fully funded and built by Albertsons, since delays extended past the merger. However it kept the same planned layout as the planned Lucky Savon. Its layout is very similar to Albertsons #01 in Huntington Beach, also built as a planned Lucky Savon, which opened as an Albertsons Savon. This store opened in 2002.
An Albertsons Express gas station was built in the parking lot of this store, and opened along with the store in 2002. It was sold off to USA Gasoline in 2012, and is now a Shell branded gas station today.
This Albertsons for some reason was not built with the newer Jewel/Santa Fe layout that some of the planned Lucky Savon store opened with around this time. Rather, this Albertsons still opened with a drop ceiling, and actually opened with Blue and Green Awnings (probably one of the last stores to open with this interior), which can be seen with the Awnings that still remain in this store and were never removed in any of the remodels. In 2009-10ish would have been around when this store would have been renovated to PFH, based on when its remodel cycle would have been.
In 2015, like over 60 other Albertsons, Vons, and Pavilions stores faced, this store was purchased as a divest by Haggen in order to finalize Albertsons merger with Safeway (Vons). It didn't last long before Haggen's demise in California, and less than a year later, "Albertsons Coming Soon" banners were hung on the front of the now empty store indicating the return of Albertsons. It reopened later that year with the LLC store, which is what many Albertsons that were bought back opened with. As of my previous visit, this store since has not been renovated out of LLC. I imagine a remodel of this store will likely come soon since it is due.
This Albertsons was built with four exterior entrances, two on the far right and left side of the store, and two in the center closer to the check stands. The very far right entrance, which is the pharmacy entrance, was closed off sometime in the early 2020's. The pharmacy side which was originally the Savon portion of the store has a lot of empty space, likely since a lot of Savon's product assortment can no longer be found here.
Impractical shoes project. Too simple; the other photos were better, but I liked the patchy light etc.
Need a bigger skateboard, this felt ridiculous!

Because the K- Max has no hydraulic power to operate the grapple, a sled carrying a hydraulic pump powered by AC power was installed.The forward cable attached to the sled and the grapple, was an effort to stabilize the grapple directionally.
