Listen, Big Deal. You got another problem. Women always figure out the truth. Always.

I have discovered that if I wear my glasses while taking photos, the pictures actually come out perfectly in focus.

Literally nothing to report, but thought I'd check in since I've been trolling around blogger most of the day and finding new blogs to read. Y'all gotta check out Bob's birb photos, they put mine to shame.

I'm becoming a regular at the birb sanctuary. Update:

I got some really good photos last night hanging out there with Lil Bro#2. 

So many birbs.



 The other night, there were like 40 herons hanging out. I couldn't get great photos because they were too far away, but the lady I got to chatting to had one of those giant zoom lenses that looks like a rocket launcher, and she counted about 40. I keep on stopping there whenever I pass it hoping to get a shot of the Cedar Waxwings. I honestly never knew we had them around here, but one of my fellow bird nerds spotted one in his scope and let me and M. take a look. They are super fancy.

Any of y'all remember that time I complained about how frustrating it gets having the same conversation with Mumsy over and over and over and over? In case you forgot, here's an example:



It's been the same since they invented the internet.


like is she kidding

  
You guys



I can't



I other news, I've been watching The Force Awakens every night for like a week. I can probably recite it at this point.

Harleyquinn says hi.



I don't know how she does these things. I can only guess.

A quickie for Sam Lupin...


I've been really slacking as far as artwork goes. That's what happens when you have too many hobbies, I guess. Between actual work and being part of the band at church, I tend to spend most of my extremely limited free time sitting and doing absolutely nothing. 

But I've got a couple pictures in progress. And I promised Sam Lupin a preview.



That is The Burrow (the Weasley family's house, from Harry Potter) so far. I apologize in advance for the background--I never did learn how to perspective, despite the efforts of a number of increasingly aggravated college professors. 

Any request for the colour of your fence? I cannot decide....
