Fuzzy says I get points for not throwing anything at the television during the first presidential debate last night. It helped that I was watching the twitter feed and laughing at the snarky comments being made. We started watching on NBC, then moved to CNN because, just as my stepfather likes to watch the clothes [...]

DSC01696 Originally uploaded by MissMelysse. Carmi’s Thematic Photographic theme from this week is “angles,” and the image that sprang to my mind was this one, of a quilt my Bubbie sewed from hand. It began as one of those kits to make a single square, and she ended up having my mother buy several more. [...]

Carmi meant for this week’s theme to be macro photography, I’m certain, but I think he’ll cut me a little slack for the picture I’m submitting.
