Picasa

At the bottom of my last post, if you were observant, you may have noticed a little colorful box. Last week I needed a new jump drive, and the one I happened to pick up included some free Google software, one of which was a photo editing program called Picasa. Usually I am not a big "free software" user as I find it takes more energy to install it than it is worth, but this one is pretty fun. It works with Blogger, so I can upload my photos to Picasa, play around with them, then click "Blog This!" and there it is! Plus, I got to waste away my afternoon making all my pictures sepia toned and super-color saturated and grainy and stuff. Excellent. I am always on the lookout for more ways to procrastinate.

I cropped and tinted Logan over here, then made him grainy. I have some big plans for some of you all out there, too. I have many, many unused pictures, and lots and lots of things I would prefer to NOT do (pack, do laundry, clean my bathroom...) meaning I will be procrastinating some this week. So, hold on to your seats, folks. Posted by Picasa

yes, feel free to find that guys and get about 150 pesos back for me. I could sure use the denero:) ahh, dont worry about it. just dont get ripped off for me, that will make me feel better. I am quite the haggler now, hey tell them this "I can get that for ---- (a way cheaper price) in San Antonio". I used that and it worked, that and because it WAS cheaper in San antonio. send me a pic of anything you want and I can get it WAY cheaper. though I didnt see any straw hats. are you all flying through houston? hope you have fun and dont get massive diarrhea! good luck! I bet the toilets arent as nice where you are staying this year, not as much fun to spend the whole night on the porcelin goddess if you know what I mean:) wow, I think this is long enough!
