CrAZy hOUsE! April 21st, 2009

   

Well someone in the Shaw area decided to paint the side of their row-house all crazy-like. hehe! Not sure it’s what I would have gone with if I owned an end house and therefore a large, blank canvas at my disposal, but I do appreciate the “whimsicality” of it. Reminds me of Dr. Seuss in a way.

dolla dolla bill March 31st, 2009

   

We did our dues last night and squared up with Uncle Sam (and it’s not even April yet!!) Filing taxes online is admittedly 10 times easier than doing all the paperwork, which we had to do last year as first time filers in the District. I ended up owing a few bucks again this year, but not enough to complain about, and Matt got a sweet return. So, who’s done theirs and who is waiting until the 14th? You only have two more weeks!

   

(And no, that’s not a stack of bills we keep under the mattress, it’s a photo of the money we raised after last summer’s triathlon fundraiser…)

High Heel Race, 2008 October 29th, 2008

   
Every year, a few days before Halloween, there is an enormous Parade and High Heel Drag Race up 17th Street near Dupont Circle. As a now 3-time veteran of this event, I must say that every year the costumes get better, the street gets more crowded, and the race gets even funnier. Unfortunately, Matt’s camera ran out of juice just as we arrived last night, so this camera-phone picture is terrible and does not do the Coco Chanel costume any sort of justice. Definitely check out Flickr for some decent but indecent pictures taken by others last night.

candy corn deformities October 17th, 2008

   

I just love Halloween season. It means so many good things. Costumes, pumpkin beer, hot cider, my mom’s famous pumpkin cookies (I’m still waiting on), an apparent zombie walk in Silver Spring !!!, and CANDY CORN. Oh how I love it. I saved all the reject/deformed pieces from the bag last night, because they are just funny. I just enjoy the fact that a candy that is yellow, orange, and white always turns my tongue pink

unintentional faces October 8th, 2008

 

   
If I was going to start another blog, I always thought it would be funny to post pictures of what I would call “unintentional faces of the world.” (Maybe this already exists? I don’t know…) I first thought of it last summer sometime, when Matt and I were eating delicious Rita’s Italian Ice… and I looked across the street and the side of the house that was in view had a giant face on the side of it. Not an intentional face, but it was a square shaped house-side, with two windows at the top, and a large garden hose strung across the bottom of it on a garden hose holder — shaped like a little smile. I wondered if the residents of that house even knew they had a giant smiley face on their house… but likely not. It was probably only noticeable from the other side of the road where we were.
   
Does anyone else notice these faces everywhere? Or is that just my creative side that I can’t turn off? I think they are everywhere. Especially the one pictured above. It’s a robot with a giant grill and a blinky eye.

a watermelon house September 16th, 2008

   
Oh wow, a watermelon house! This is both hilarious and yummy looking. Although, if I had the chance to paint a large fruit on the side of my house, it would be a pineapple. Here is the story behind it.

guess what’s fake ? September 8th, 2008

   

Every so often, DCist.com has a Touch-Up DC Contest where you are supposed to use some Photoshop fun to enhance a DC monument, street, or scene. This was one of my submissions from last week–my photoshop work on one of Matt’s photos. Can anyone (not living in DC) guess what’s fake here?

wow. August 28th, 2008

   
5″ Rattail. yes. Surf sign hand signal. yes. This picture speaks for itself.

   

Although on doing a little Google search on “surf hand sign” I learned a few things. One, Ronaldinho is often known to make this hand gesture after scoring a goal. Is this a common soccer thing or did this guy in the picture just like Ronaldinho? Two, it’s called a Shaka Sign and according to Wikipedia can mean “hang loose,” “alright,” “cool,” or “smooth.” It’s often associated with Hawaii and the surfing community. Who knew!
