Biking from Fisherman's Wharf to Sausalito and/or Tiburon, is not just for tourists. If you haven't done that and you live in the Bay Area, it is something you should definitely put on your to do list. If you don't have a bike, do what the tourists do, rent it at a place like Bay City Bike. It's about $27 to rent a bike for a whole day. Great deal for whole day of fun!

Favorite Shots from the ride:

OK, where are the bugs when you need them? I went around looking for them, no luck. I sat around waiting for them to come, no luck!!! Well, looks like no interesting macro photo of bugs as of yet. I did however get to bring home some roses from today's wedding set up! Here'a macro photo of a sexy rose. The rose's a little too centered but it's the only macro shot that is not too blurry. Alan took off w/ my tripod in his trunk! Kinda hard to take macro picture w/o a tripod. Bad DH!


Here's a normal shot.


Here's b&w one.

Pluto is no longer a planet but instead a "Dwarf Planet". I'm pretty sad that it got demoted. Here's a link to more information on this. I need a moment of silence for this.

Macro Photography, it's whole different world! I just got a hold of my new toy, Canon's EF25 II extension tube. The extension tube works really well. The only problem is, I can't take normal pictures when the extension tube is attached.



This weekend, when Alan's playing Halo w/ the Lotz, I think I'll find myself some bugs to take pictures of. Hmmm...where can I find some lady bugs?

Pictures of the Sunol Bike Trail is up. Go here to see it.

Flat tires..., can this be the reason behind that that pissed off look captured by the wifey (me)?? I had one flat tire and Alan had 2 flat tires! Good thing we had llamas to entertain us while we waited to be rescued. The white llama with black spots is Lucy. Isn't Lucy cute? I got to feed them grass hay and apples. Do you know that llamas love apples?

OK, back to the pouty face question, the answer is no. That's the normal "honey, hurry up and pick up the pace" look.

Hmm...I think I should go & apologize to the neighbors tomorrow for hurting their ears. I spent 1+ hour playing karoake revolution! (hehe) Funny thing is when I was singing, the chirps were chirping. At least the chirps enjoyed it, I don't know about Mr. Chirp-Head, he went upstairs soon after I started singing. OW!!!!! WHY DO I KEEP USING MY LEFT INDEX FINGER TO TYPE G???!!!!! SO FORGETFUL..gotta take care of the injured finger......!!!!!

Been working out but not seeing results? You may find this article interesting, go here to read it. Have fun!

Wow, it took approximately 30 minutes for my finger to stop bleeding. About half an hour ago, while cutting cheese, I cut my poor index finger. I cut my finger all the time before and yet it never really puncture the skin or ever go that deep. I think I should stick w/ using blunt knifes or learn how to cut properly. I was wondering if I should seek medical attention as it wouldn't stop bleeding and it was quite deep. It occurred to me that I might need some stitches but I was afraid that the nurses might laugh at me if I go in and my finger was in no immediate danger of falling off. I don't know, I just feel like unless I'm dying or something is chopped off, there is no need to go to the emergency walk in. Anyhow, I went online to see if i need medical attention. This is what I found out. If a straight cut is more than 1/8 of an inch or .3 cm deep (goes through the demis layer), it should be stitched only if the area in resting position pulls the skin back and prevents the wound from closing. It also said that if it's not a not a straight cut and it's jagged and is 1/8 of an inch or .3cm deep, then seek medical attention immediately. Interesting eh? So even though my cut went through the dermis layer and I could see the white stuff, after about 1/2 hour, the wound had no problem closing by itself. Whew, good thing I checked, otherwise I will look like such an idiot. Hehe.
