Fake Lomography is Fun
23 Dec
There are an almost limitless number of applications available that simulate good old-fashioned lo-fi photography. They make images taken with my camera phone seem a little less lousy.

Banner Weekend
15 Nov
Despite the whole robopet clan being sick, this was a great weekend. Tiny gave me completely unsolicited, hard-squeezing, back-patting hugs followed by slobbery kisses on several occasions. He also laughed when I pretended to slip and fall.
I’ll Never Spend Another Dime on Toys
27 Oct
There is just no need. Little Jacques Cousteau can make his own fun. We were playing with blocks in the livingroom. When I became involved in a particularly spectacular bit of tower construction, Tiny G went exploring.
Food and Children
8 Oct
According to the status updates posted by my friends on Facebook, everybody’s favorite social site should be called “Food and Children.” As I write, the latest topics appearing on my feed are about chicken curry, chocolate malts and pictures of young ‘uns.
The Disney Channel Made Me Stupid
17 Sep
I’m sitting for a friend. Her daughter is six. She (the daughter) requested that we watch channel 24. It’s the Disney Channel. I want to murder myself in the eyes with a knife.

Taking His Lumps
Children, especially toddlers, have tiny bodies with great, huge, heavy heads, and very little good sense. So any time they move (which in Tiny’s case is all the time) it’s like they’re challenging the world to a head-butting contest that they are destined to lose. Today, though, it was another kid who stepped in front [...]

I Love My New Camera
I got my birthday present a week or so early (Thanks, Mrs. G!). It’s a fantastic Digital SLR camera. And while I still love taking lo-fi shots with my phone, I am really happy to have the opportunity to try my hand at portraiture. Now if that new portrait lens would somehow find its way [...]

My Kid Can Count to Six
Tiny, who’ll be 21 months old Thursday (that’s “almost two” for people who favor solar age above lunar), saw some change on a chair in my bedroom this morning and became very excited. He really enjoys putting coins in his piggy bank, so I told him he could have them if he helped me count [...]
