Jeremy

I still haven’t found a way to read out pictures straight from my camera (something about the drivers went horribly wrong), but my shiny new Dell 2405FPW at work has various built-in card readers, including one for my CompactFlash cards. So while I haven’t taken any pictures of the house yet, I did get my backlog of pictures from the last few months. To start things off, here’s a picture of Jeremy, the budgie we bought for Victoria a while ago.

Picture didn’t turn out as clear as they could have (stupid auto focus), but it’ll have to do for now.

Car Trouble

May 1, 2006

Generally I love my car. It’s fast, fun to drive and perfect for this area. But a cargo giant it is not. You can fit about one suitcase into the trunk and that’s that, when buying some small furniture a few years ago I had to rent a uHaul truck to transport the stuff home.
Case in point: this morning I had a flat tire, and after installing my spare the old tire did did not fit in the trunk. I had to transport it on the passenger’s seat instead. I guess lifestyle has its price or something…
