Waste of a day
I was half right. We ended up winning the crappiest camera ever and a watch that you can pick the gold coating off. This place was so far out in BFE it was amazing we found it at all.
The narrow road to get to this hell hole

The only good thing about the trip was this abandoned house we passed on our way up. It looked like it's been abandoned for years and was unvandalized. I wanted to go back so bad to explore and take pictures, but Jer was getting pissy so I had to let it be.

Vice City
Last night I dragged Jer to see Miami Vice. The movie was 2.5hr and could have been summed up in half that time. There was a killer (no pun intended) shoot out at the end and I kinda got all emotional when the pretty BMW got custom bullet holes along the side. Jamie Foxx did some awesome acting, Colin...well, he had sexy hair.

You know the trailer where their playing Numb by Linkin Park and driving all fast and looking super cool? I burned a CD with that song on it, made sure my stang was a gleamin', and jammed to that song to and from the movie theater (just like the trailer). Jer wasn't feeling it and kept turning down the volume and asked if there were other songs on the CD. He's just not as pimp (or as much of a dork) as me.
We're off to Cambridge (3 hours away) today to see if we won a car. Jer entered some contest and we ended up winning one of 5 keys to start a Jeep or 25K. They said that even if we don't win the money or car, that we will get some nice prizes. A few of the prizes are a 35mm camera from some brand I never heard of and a huge TV that is also brand retarded. I so know that's what were coming back with.

got my negatives!!
I finally got my Holga negatives developed yesterday after a month of having the film sitting on my desk. This was my first time using medium format film, so it came out kinda crappy. But I understand my mistakes so the next ones should be kick ass. For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, a Holga is a totally manual medium format camera. Since it's all manual, you have the flexibility of not advancing the film all the way and getting some amazing overlaps. I've spent years playing with photoshop and doing overlays, but actually doing it on film is a whole nother ball game. If you fuck up an exposure, the whole film can be ruined.


I use slid film, which actually looks like the print version (it's not an amber like 35mm film). The negatives are 30" of a continuous seen which I've mounted on plexi glass so it's easier to see. Now all I need to get is a slide scanner.

Calvin & Hobbes
When I was a youngster, I use to cut a new Calvin & Hobbes out of the newspaper every night. I miss those days *sigh*

Busy weekend
My parents came down for the weekend to help me do some stuff around my new place. Dad helped me install a storm door in front, and built me a back gate. I also did some mulching and put some nice edging down. I'm still planning on getting a fire pit, some more plants and maybe a little bar area. The back area looks so much better tho.
Hope you guys had a good weekend!

update
I updated the "xtra stuff" section to the right with the new pics of downtown Columbus and added a page for the recent car show at the fairgrounds.
Parents are visiting for this weekend, so the posts will be light.
Have a good day guys!!

and if you were wondering...
If you notice to the right of the page...where I have the whole "who, what, where" stuff....it's all out of order. I host all that fancy stuff on another account which is about to exceed the bandwidth for the month which is no biggy except all the graphics that make up the template for thebobblog are also hosted on the site. So if in a few days you view this site and everything looks like ass, you'll know what's going on.

where are my comments?
So this whole time I've been wondering why the hell doesn't anyone ever comment on my images or my site. Turns out that I had the "moderate comments" turned on and I never viewed them till tonight....which I accidently deleted them when I turned the moderation to off....and I had so many I didn't get a chance to read :(
So sorry for those of you that left me little messages, I really appreciate all the kind words, and from now on they will show up (I hope).

25 things about me....
So I've been getting a lot of emails asking why I don't get in-dept about my personal life. The only reason is because a lot of my clients/customers view my site and I try to keep it as professional as possible. So for you, my friends, I've created a "25 things about me" list.
1. I'm an only child (so is my mother)
2. I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years
3. We just bought a townhouse together, so I can't get rid of him for 30 years
4. I still cry when I think about my dog that died 5 years ago
5. All of my friends have told me they were very intimidated when we first met
6. If I could have any car in the world it would be this one:

7. I drive very fast
8. I don't slow down for cops
9. I've never had a ticket
10. My uncle is Joh Voight, which makes Angelina Jolie my cousin (since she's his daughter) And that would also make Brad Pitt my..... well you get the picture
11. I'm a label whore
12. I get distracted by shiny things
13. I wear an expensive watch
14. Which is kinetic and I never set the correct time
15. I have an unhealthy obsession with Oakley. (having 14 pairs of sunglasses, 3 watches, and 2 authentic display cases)
16. I HATE talking on the phone (maybe that's why I never answer it)
17. I rarely lie
18. But #10 was one of those rare times :)
19. I spend a lot of time in front of my computer
20. When I drink, I will through it up 90% of the time
21. Probably because I only weigh 125lbs
22. I'm very self conscious about my hight (only 5'4")
23. I lose interest in things very quickly (usually within a week)
24. I can't spell to save my life
25. I hate my name :(
