I was drawing a blank today, so in the same vein as Day 77 I went with a random fact about myself.

It doesn't matter who it's from, sometimes you just need to hear it.

Went to enjoy the sunset at Sands again today. A swell was supposed to hit and all the surfers were out. They were a little premature, though. The waves were kind of walled and not very big, but that didn't keep it from being a zoo.

It's the weekend and I've been taking it easy, hanging out and catching up on some work. We went for a walk right around sunset and it was incredible at Sands.

Day 207

While we were at Devereux I took the opportunity to make some cool pictures.

Today we went exploring and I had a lot of fun playing with color.

Day 205

205/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

Since we got back from winter break they've been doing construction on my street. They've torn up all the piping running towards the ocean and are replacing it. I live on a one way street, so there's no avoiding it, and they are constantly shutting down the intersection. Add to that the noise and the dust and I'm starting to go crazy from it. They're making me feel like a grumpy old man!

Day 204

204/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

We got some good news today... they (whoever they are) had a court hearing and we get to keep Faythe! It's a good thing too because I think we're all pretty attached at this point. She's so friggin cute it's hard not to be!

Day 203

203/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

I was only going to do fisheye's for a week, but I'm having too much fun with it.

I'm having a nice, lazy Sunday today, which is good because I still feel like hell. I was diggin the sky so I just snapped a picture. When I got my prints back I liked this one, but I didn't think it wasn't anything incredible. Then Tony saw it and told me it looks like earth from space and I kind of fell in love with it.

Day 201

201/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

I got sick yesterday. It was going around my house and it finally took me down. It actually hit me while I was onstage for 54 (the class I TA for) and it was absolutely miserable. I spent my first Friday of the quarter in bed for the most part. The next day I was feeling even worse, and Kira offered to make me pancakes. They were delicious and very much appreciated, thanks Kira!

Day 200

Day 200! I can't believe I'm well over halfway... Here's an alien duck in celebration!

Day 199

199/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

After my hellacious Wednesdays, I have pretty relaxing Thursdays. Tony had some free time too, so we played a round of frisbee golf in the middle of the afternoon. It's rained the last couple days, so there were actually some water hazards that made things interesting. Normally I'm a scratch frisbee-golfer, but I was having an off day and I ended up in the drink a couple of times!

Day 198

198/365, originally uploaded by Aaron LaRue.

I've been fiddling with my schedule trying to get the classes I want. So far I've been successful, but I've screwed myself as far as my schedule goes. On Wednesdays I have 9 hours of class, spanning from 10 A.M. to 9 P.M. 7 of those hours are spent in screenings, watching movies. 5 of those 7 are spent in the same room and with only a 10 minute break. I spent way too much time in these chairs today, people were not meant to sit for that long.
