Finally, the photos cometh….
January 16, 2008 at 4:20 pm | In Blogging, Photography, UpdateI finally have found a plug-in for this blog that I like for photo presentation: SimpleFlickr. It creates a Flickr-style Flash viewer that allows a user to browse through photos from my collection. My only dislike is that it cannot pull all the photos in a collection from Flickr; it only will take sets and group pools (Flickr-ites will know what I’m talking about here). I worked around this however by creating private groups solely for this purpose, putting photos in them grouped the way I want, and creating an individual page here on H.I.S.D. to show the SimpleFlickr viewer for a single group. On the positive side it was easy to set up — just uploading a folder, activating, and applying some style settings — and it worked right away.
Ugh.
December 17, 2007 at 1:37 am | In Life, Photography, Update, WorkI’m still sick. I felt better for a few days and now I am again at the brink of dying. Humans weren’t meant to live like this; I understand now why our ancestors died of infectious diseases so easily, at an early age. It was just too miserable to survive. In other news I’m in the middle of my 2 week shift on service at our downtown hospital. It’s been a joy to work during my last days on earth. Really.
Update
December 8, 2007 at 3:12 am | In Blogging, Life, Photography, WorkIt’s been quite a while since my last post. The last time I had time to put anything up here, much of San Diego County was still burning. Fortunately the extent of the firestorm was not as broad as expected. The numbers of injuries was far less than we planned for, and luckily the weather changed later in the week. Firefighters continued to contain the fires, and after about a week the Santa Ana winds died out, the temperatures dropped, the humidity increased, and the fires were finally out. A small flare threatened Malibu once again later in the week, but a repeat of the previous week’s disaster was averted when heavy rainstorms passed through Southern California. Since the hot dry period of the firestorm, it’s actually been quite wet and somewhat chilly (San Diego chilly) for the last couple weeks.
