in the dark

yes, i know what time it is. it was a great b-day and i had a little trouble winding down, so i took some pictures in the dark. a hand holding a cigarette, my roses, having bloomed, and my kitty, having discovered the xmas decoration boxes:

    Um, I’m going to try and explain this…
    hotboxing comes from smoking a cigarette too fast, and getting a large “cherry” at the end. This heats up the smoke more when inhaled and makes it less enjoyable. It happens frequently when people share a smoke. Usually you have to knock off the cherry and relight.

    ahh! i see. no, that was just kind of a longish ash, due to me trying to hold the camera still and take pictures of it, all fumbly in the dark.

    Happy Birthday Wishes!

    Happy Birthday Elaine! Hope you are having a FANTASTIC day today, and I look forward to celebrating with you tonight!

    What kind of art-type thing was Kitty playing with?
    It looks ever so craft-like?
    Could also be a few years old? Maybe?

    I love the look on her [?] face, it is as if she knows that she shouldn’t quite be doing that, but is going to anyways. Almost a “I know what you are thinking, I don’t give a damn” :)

    she has attitude, doesn’t she? our very old kitty does and she doesn’t care who knows it.

    The pix of the gigarette looks sultry and mysterious. And I love that kitty. Kitty is always doing something exciting!

    pic #1 — are you hotboxing again?!

  9. skits

    hee @ the kitty pic. She is a scampy little thing, isn’t she? :)

    And I have to know–what is hotboxing?

  10. Linkmeister

    Personally, I think the look on the beastie is more of a “What, again?” look.

  11. batgrl

    Yes, I have no clue on the hatboxing thing either and need to know.
    Hee – I was up that late in my time zone too!
    No photos though! Which is probably just as well.

    And while I’m in here I suddenly have an idea. I’m going to leave it and let you folk run with it because I am totally brain fried yet must make it to work.
    The thought – Ping Tag.
    I have no idea how it could work… But it’s a thought. Hey, it’s the holidays and we need a game to play while trapped at work. The alternative is Dye Your Hair Red or Green and Then Post Photos (Holiday Hair!) but Ping Tag seems easier.

    …and the minor problem that I really cannot show up to work with green hair and maintain my job (“Holy Joker hair, Batgirl…”).

    …although maybe I could try Daniel’s “Ice Green” hair spikey stuff <g>.

    Cat pic tonight: kitty’s cousin seems to be living with us…

    i think “what, again?” would be the most accurate depiction of the kitty’s attitude towards me and my camera.

    ping tag sounds fun, but the logistics are beyond me at this point.

    Could you just footnote a blog entry with:

    Tag!

    with the word “Tag!” linking and pinging to your victim? Then that person has to do the same?

    *shrugs*

  16. Bill

    I can never get over how much your cat looks like my cat…

  17. batgrl

    Logistics are beyond me too.
    I think the brotherlove has the gist though.
    We just need to set the day sometime.
    We’ll just let this sit and think on it…

  18. kd

    ok, i can sit, but i’m having trouble thinking. i need a nap. so very, very badly.

  19. kd

    that is a puzzle thingy that can be arranged in a christmassy scene, then put back in the puzzle box. and yes, it’s likely pretty old. all our xmas stuff is from chris’s mom’s collection.

    Ahhh, the days of hotboxing are over for me. Sigh…
