I learned something new about myself today

Apparently I am incapable of frowning.  I can pout but not frown.  I didn't know this about myself until today.  My question to you is can you frown?

Burning tree

Remember that orange tree from the other day.  I was playing with the contrast in one of the shots I took of it and it looks like it is on fire.  I just thought it was cool.

Funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time.

This picture has been making it's way around the internet this week.

It’s pretty gross and I couldn’t figure out why someone would wear their pants like that.  How is that even comfortable?  Then tonight, I stumbled upon the answer.  It does explain so much!

Now I understand, I hope this helps you too!

Announcing Picasa 3.5, now with name tags, better geotagging and more

This is very exciting for me. I cannot say enough good things about the Picasa software. It's a totally free program offered by google that simplifies everything about owning a digital camera. Before I started using Picasa I would load my pictures onto the computer and they would be called "New Folder 42." I never knew what was actually in the folder. With Picasa it forces me to name the folder and I can add a description to it; where it was taken, the date, any comments and we even geotag our pictures which means we put the exact location the picture was taken. So already I'm super organized because I can search all of those factors, but now I'll be able to search by face. I love it! The minute I read this I downloaded the update and I am running the scans right now.

Picasa is so much more than an organization tool. The editing while very basic is pretty much everything you'll need. The "I'm feeling lucky" button is magic. Give it a try.

Here is the official announcement from the Google Photos Blog.

More on the cutest game ever made

In the game Scribblenauts I had to help a lumber jack cut down a tree, first we used a saw, then a chainsaw and then I went blank.  What next?

Fun little game that I picked up today

Today I picked up the game Scribblenauts.  So far I love it!  It's this adorable little game that has me solving puzzles with words.

The elusive Roomba

Today the elusive Roomba was spotted in my living room.  For the first time ever it was caught on tape.  Here are the shocking photos.

Actual conversation from work today.

This conversation happened to towards the end of my shift and my stomach still hurts from laughing so hard.


Coworker to me:  I always thought you were so quiet.
Coworker to another coworker:  Did you know Becci was nice? 
Coworker to me:  No, that's not what I meant. I meant that I always thought you were so quiet but now that I'm over here I realize you don't shut up.  No, that's not what I meant...

That made my day!
