Yes...yes it is...

There is this analogy that glitter is like herpes, you cannot rid yourself of it. Well, some genius out there came to this momentous conclusion regarding cat hair. I immediately jumped to thoughts of a Ke$ha concert meets Gwar surrounded by a moat full of cute cuddly kittens. Yeah. Admit it, you just imagined it too.

Gettin' creative..





OOOOOOH Boy... You are sure in for a Deutsch filled treat. I could say that I had fun with this, but I'd be lying. It was the worst 5 hours of my life and I wish I could take it back. I am not a musical person, I couldn't even play the triangle right in grade school. It comes up a bit short from the minimum required length and by the time you get that far you'll be grateful. Now, it's not like the brown note from south park, but in any case, I wouldn't play it for a crowd. The only part I liked working with were the voices, seeing as I've taken German, it was nice to be able to add them in. I enjoyed being able to incorporate background noise that seemed to go along with my creepy, kindergarten garage band vibe.

This is a nice way to help the neighborhood strays.

 This is so perfect I cannot put into words how much of amazing an idea this is the only thing I could do to possibly make this better is start a list of names that I'm going to give to all the new additions as well as try as hard as I, grammar nazi, can to create the worlds longest run on sentence because the amount of excitement at the shear possibilities this sign has create I've already got names flowing out of my ears George Meowchal Montgomery, Felix the 2nd, Meatball, Juicebox, Astrid bubblegut, Mimi the Moose, Frank, Leonard, Tom Puuuuurvo (Tom Servo, don't get nasty guys, just watch Mystery Science Theatre 3000), SaraSpockcian the Vulcan dinosaur Kitty, Alf (come oooon its funny),  Baron Von Poopypants, Admiral Snuggleworth, Mr. Tiddybomboms,  Hotdog the mystical raccoon, Nixon, Archie the Magical Rhino, Jimmy the Robot, Prince Humperdinck, Zaphod Beeblebrox, Bob, Mr. Nincompoop, Pedro Megatron, Sir Odd-Face, Bojangles, Frag Schnaggler and last but not least, little mr. Schrodinger

Make your own slideshow with music at Animoto.

For my lovely little 30 seconds, I used the super 8 option from Animoto. I enjoyed how its setup suited my pictures. It was super easy to use and since it all happened so fast, I'm beginning to second guess myself, nothing every runs that smoothly... but I digress. The song I used was Apocalypse Lullaby by The Wailin' Jennys. I really like the overall feel of the short and wish I had an opportunity to make this into what I know it could be. It's meant to be a mellow depiction of real life, without the extreme emotions. I was thinking simplicity, I'm hoping that's how it comes across.

something puuurdy

Untitled Heading into down town Toledo from Broadway, there is a ton of amazing art created by locals. It brightens up an otherwise run down part of this fair city. I enjoy the overall look of this photograph. I increased the contrast to bring out the dramatic lines of the building. I then lowered saturation because there was no plane ol' black and white option.  Last I used the color splash to add a touch of color in the local art.
