Sometimes I go outside
The last two digital cameras I've owned both suffered untimely destruction. One was smashed in a car door (or possibly sat on, or more probably both), and the other was dropped into Lake Washington. Despite my less-than-favorable track record with cameras, I needed to get something with which to document my upcoming travels, so I am now on my third camera. Hopefully this one will still be working in six months; this would be a personal record.
Now, I'm no photographer, but I'm pretty happy with the pictures I've managed to take so far. Here are a few samples:
Marymoor Off-Leash Dog Area
Marymoor Park
Some Flowers
Some Other Stuff
As you can tell, I've been having fun playing with the macro mode on my camera. At one point I had about two dozen close-up pictures of all kinds of random stuff in my apartment, so just be thankful that I didn't subject you to "Things In My Fridge Up Close: A Study in Still Life".

Signal strength
I've been told that I haven't been writing enough here lately. "Hey Joe," they say, "you quit your job and you seem to have a lot of free time, so what have you been up to?"
Sadly, the answer to that question isn't as nearly as interesting as you might hope. The simple answer is that I've been relaxing, decompressing, and enjoying my free time.
For right now, though, I am thoroughly enjoying having an almost entirely unstructured schedule. Suck it, Outlook!
