Hump! Friday 6pm 2 x Tickets available

arrenp@gmail.com — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 07:44:00 GMT

So, we purchased two tickets to the 6pm September 9th showing of Hump! 5 in Seattle that we would now like to sell. We will actually be going on Saturday at 10pm with jade_rabbit within hours of her getting back :-D

If you would like to buy these tickets, they are $20 a piece (the additional $3 for handling is appreciated but not required) You can either comment here, or call, or email, or other method of appropiate communication if you are interested. These are first come first served and will be posted on Craigslist in a few days.

A quick update

arrenp@gmail.com — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 02:07:08 GMT

I haven't posted in quite a bit, so here is a quick update:

I have a bunch more photos to post, including a bunch from Burning Man and 3 timelapse movies.

I am officially ending the photo-a-day project. For many reasons, chief among them is that I am no longer enjoying the project, or feel that I am getting anything out of it.

I will be starting up a new photo based project sometime this year, however I am still figuring out exactly what it will be.

I am still unemployed, however there have been a few options floating around that I will be hopefully be hearing more on in the next week.

Feel free to leave any comments with things you would like me to do, catch up on, post, etc... I am still going through the photos I have and should be posting them next week considering I will be a bit busy this weekend ;-)

Off to Burning Man!

arrenp@gmail.com — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 16:57:47 GMT

Back in a week!

We redid some of the braids after this and added charms :-)

Whoops..

Guess what I forgot to do today....

7 Days!

arrenp@gmail.com — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 07:24:03 GMT

We leave for the playa in 7 days! Smeegle is already in the right frame of mind.

Elderberries!

arrenp@gmail.com — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 08:19:35 GMT

So, apparently Walgreens is the ultimate random supply store for Burning Man, who knew. In one fell swoop we knocked off at least half of our remaining list for essentially pocket change.

In other news, Coho Cafe still has tasty beverages and food during happy hour :-)

8/21/2009 #286

Colorful

arrenp@gmail.com — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 10:20:58 GMT

Keeping up on this whole posting thing :-) This is one of the things that the cats have to look at out their viewing window.

Sandwich Day!

arrenp@gmail.com — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 10:05:44 GMT

To celebrate Sandwich Day, metkat invited over jade_rabbit, lisatheriveter, and myself for sandwiches and general celebration. We were also introduced to the fine art of glowy rubber duck racing at the fountain in Cal Anderson park.

8/19/2009 #284

And of course tasty Italian sandwich goodness flown in from Maine courtesy of metkat.

Almost there....

Fire Spinning

arrenp@gmail.com — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 09:32:05 GMT

Technically this falls under 8/8/2009 photos, but it deserves its own entry.

After an amazing Tricky Pixie Concert at Sidhehaven, there was fire spinning in the evening to all sorts of random music. It was a great end to the day.

Catching up, in many parts

arrenp@gmail.com — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 09:26:05 GMT

So, I will apologize in advance. My journal will probably take up a lot of screen real-estate as I post the last two weeks of photos that I have fallen behind on. I will use cuts where there are multiple photos in a day I want to post.

To answer some questions I have had recently during this hiatus from posting:
Yes, I am healthy :-)
Yes, I have still been taking a daily photo and will continue to do so
And yes, there will be another hiatus from posting while I am at Burning Man

Now, to catch up starting with the Faerieworlds Decompression at Sidhehaven. They have been doing a number of property enhancements recently, including a newly laid circle.

8/7/2009 #272

This is a glaze that sidhefire did that came out rather beautifully.

magickalmom's awesome Steampunk Faerie outfit complete with Steampunked wings.

Don't be fooled by this photo, Smeegle is in fact a vicious killer!

Camera Stuff

arrenp@gmail.com — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 21:21:47 GMT

Finally through the Majority of the Faerieworlds photos, time to catch up :-)
This is a neat little camera level that Kelcey has and I should probably get.

8/4/2009 #269

Music around the campfire.

arrenp@gmail.com — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 06:59:28 GMT

After midnight at the campsite. So it technically counts as Mondays photo! Which is good because I didn't get any others ;-)
