In which there was culture! But it was pretty redneck, so not really.
Saturday night, Left Coast Girlie and I went to see a play at Fort Walla Walla, which is an outdoor amphitheater near the local museum. The play was Taming of the Shrew, which I wanted to see because I played Kate in a [...]
I’ve taken to doing Flickr swaps lately.
What this means is that I send stuff to people I don’t know in real life, and they send me stuff back. In the mail. On purpose.
In which I do some stuff… but don’t really get much accomplished!
Saturday I lounged around, made soup, then in the afternoon went to get film developed and have my nails done. Because I’m white trash like dat.
The developer at Rite-aid was broken and my nail shop was closed for the weekend, so I ended up [...]
Sunday also just happened to by my one year anniversary of seeing Teh BF. He brought me coffee and flowers in bed that morning and took me out to dinner. In return, I bought brunch and tried not to be a bitch all day.
In which I get the hell outta town!
I didn’t take a pre-spring vacation like I did last year, so I’ve been in the office without a pause since Vegas last September. (As soon as Amma’s tour schedule comes out I’ll be trying to book Chicago, and I’m also hoping to get to New York in [...]
In which there are some events of the not-so-stunningly-fantastic sort. It’s not that interesting. You may talk among yourselves.
Saturday I had the first roll of film shot through The Brick developed. Several of them turned out really well, particularly considering that the rangefinder window is filthy and I can’t see through it, and that I [...]
In which it totally feels like hump day, but it isn’t.
Weather in the Walla Walla Valley
First there was sun.
Then there was wind. Then there was hail.
Then the power went out. Management decided to send everyone (but me) home, and they all left and had had just enough time to get into their cars… and [...]

In which there are several visual aides!
With the help of NLW I collected a bunch of stuff from the farm yesterday, but I never did see my beloved Polaroid camera. I looked all over the place several times but it wasn’t there. Bread said he couldn’t remember seeing it anywhere.
Last night in bed I thought [...]
I don’t check the mail very often, so it’s probably been sitting there for a few days, but I received my first two rolls of 127 film for the Brownie Reflex today!
I’ll be running around snapping (daylight) pics with my little vintage baby for the next couple of weeks… then I’ll have to find someone [...]
Brownie Reflex Synchro Model
We went to Rutledge on Sunday: Brett & me and Joe.
Joe got way cool retro glassware and some other cool vintage stuff, and I got another old camera, a Kodak Brownie Reflex Synchro Model (mfg. from 1942-1951). I’ve already ordered film for it (custom film, apparently, since Kodak no longer manufactures [...]
This camera was made from 1965-1967, so it’s older than I am. It came complete with a groovy carrying case, a portrait kit (which consists of a wide aperture lens, a flash filter, and a snap-on viewfinder), a cold-clip (which is something you put your developing exposure in and keep in your armpit on cold days so the picture is warm enough to develop properly), and a flash gun.
