My weekend is looooooong again!
The Porters are coming! The Porters are coming! Yaaaaaaay!
This weekend I have taken a couple of my vacation days...What? You guys didn't get vacation days when you first started a job? Well, they forced them on me! Honest! I was just like, "hey," and they were like, "yer hired," and I was like, "cool," and they were like, "go on vacation!" Um, okay, sure. So on vacation I am going. Not too far, though. Just to the next city for a day to visit their ginormous mall and visit the Porters whom will join us back in Calgary in the following day or two. So last weekend was a four day, this weekend is a five day so I think next weekend I'll just stop going into work for about a month.
I wanted to try something artistic, so I took the photo below and did a little trace of it.
What a mug on that guy, eh? One thing I've noticed since wielding this wonderful piece of equipment called "MY DIGITAL CAMERA" is that many things get photographed, many people get photographed and many photographs are taken. However, not a lot of photographs are taken of the photographer. Thus, I believe I took this picture of myself at our '06 New Years party. Yes, I know. If you take a picture of yourself you look like a half angry, half bemused monkey man. I think that was what I was going for.
I wanted to try something psychedelic. Actually, my first intention was to get rid of that out dated profile picture because it's out of date, and that was during a blissful time when my scalp put forth many strands of wonderfully unmanageable hair. Michelle told me today that she loved my hair like that. I guess I could style my back hair that way, but I'm pretty sure the same affect would be lost on her. Any who, below is my masterpiece:
What do you think? I think I come off a little agrier than I wanted too, but I get an over all Philip K. Dick feel from it, so I thought I'd share it anyway. Oh, and I gotta say: those are some huge nostrils I'm sporting. Guess I should of never started picking my nose with my thumbs.
