My body sure likes to rebel a lot. Seasonal allergies morphed into some serious sinus crud, with bonus barfing. And it had been a fairly pleasant weekend. We attended both nights of the first ever darkwave Terma Fest. Loved it but I only saw about half the bands each night - too tired/sickish. Photos to come soon. I also got a new bike. In black (in person the cream color was too yellow). We kicked back with my son and friends at the Two Pony Gardens Pizza Night. Went for a bike ride up Summit with my lovely boyfriend yesterday morning and had a lovely photo shoot with a family at Como Park in the afternoon. And then the sickness. And/or grossness. Laying in bed for now, feeling weak and kittenish. And hoping to recover quickly as there is much to do this week and weekend. As always.
Five items of note for this Monday:
- This has been making the rounds but it’s so good. Louis C.K.’s Explanation of Why He Hates Smartphones Is Sad, Brilliant
- “It doesn’t take much to make me happy.” That would make me happy too.
- Inside the lost island of New York: Eerie pictures of the abandoned leper colony just 350 yards from the Bronx.
- How to Keep the NSA Out of Your Computer: Sick of government spying, corporate monitoring, and overpriced ISPs? There’s a cure for that.
- Of all the ridiculous things…I think this is hilarious. “Sometimes, dressing as your favorite superhero or cartoon character just isn’t enough. So at Internet culture convention DragonCon, cosplay often crosses the line into in-joke absurdity. Like dressing up as a rug.” Carpet designer threatens cosplayers with legal action.
My son got this super cool papercraft book for his birthday and he spent much of Sunday constructing them. Such focus! I love it when he gets in a groove like that. But I’d still like to get him outside a little more. I will be getting him out and over to a hospital on Wednesday. To determine what course of action we need to take to correct his scoliosis. Poor dude. It runs in my family. Hopefully we can get him straightened out (har) fairly easily.
