WQ #37: What would you do if you see this in a restaurant?

(shot taken by T. Julie)


Downright inconsiderate, indeed! I guess I, too, would take a picture.

I used to get irritated easily, but after years of constant "struggle" (LOL) I have finally decided that it (the situation as well as the people causing my discomfort) is not worth the effort. I mean, I won't give them the satisfaction of giving me another line on my face! lol. I have learned to be more tolerant on others, but sad to say, not on myself. ;P

I'll learn ... just giving myself time. :D

Grungy and Vintage

Yup, am still into the vintage/crumpled/grungy style these days and that's what I did with my shot below. Though of course it has nothing to do with Indian meal moth traps! lol.
grungy dragonfly

I took that shot last year when my nieces spotted the dragonfly above a neighbor's plant. I was doubtful if my zoom could take it, and I guess it was ok. For me, anyway. lol.

Don't know why, but the grungy and vintage look has really got me hooked. Specially now that I have an idea how to achieve the effects. Though of course it is with the help of some of the digiscrapping stuffs that I got from the internet (both bought and free). The pictures are all mine, of course.

Since am still hooked on this look, I guess you should expect more similarly manipulated pictures! ;P

Gawk ... lol.

Sometimes one can't help but just gawk at some of the most expensive stuffs around, and the Rolex Yachmaster is just one of them! Nope, I don't have any fetish for watches, but I do admire people who can spend that much amount of money just for an accessory. Still, I can't help but think of how that much money can help some of the starving people and animals out there. It's their money, of course, and I guess that's how they want to spend it! :P

Just a thought. ;)

Before I got married, my job consisted mostly of being out in the field and jostling with the cows. Yeah, literally. I was given the task of managing a cattle farm and things were pretty rough most of the time. I loved my job, though what I didn't really enjoy were the people who made our job difficult. That would be some of the bosses and farm hands who had a mind of their own; no team spirit. When life gets to be quite distressing, my colleagues and I would go out of the farm and "have a party". Biosecurity wasn't really an issue at the farm since it wasn't that big and few salesmen/saleswomen ever ventured there. Blame it all on it being a government-owned farm, where the buying of equipments and other necessities are being done in an office far from the farm. I liked it that way; less hassles.

Billiards was certainly one of the things we enjoy, though for the life of me I haven't really gotten the hang of the game. All I did then was just drink and watch them play. I have often wondered where they got their billiard supplies; maybe from PoolDawg.com. I noticed that that site carries most brands and offers competitive prices, too.

But all that is behind me now. No regrets. I enjoyed the time I stayed with the company and have learned a great deal! It was just time to move on ... :)
