My girlfriend has a habit of taking pictures of our cat in various poses of "poetic lounging", as she likes to put it.

Winter in Wellesley

Nefta snapped these photos today. Some of them would make beautiful Christmas cards.

my sexy bathroom

My girlfriend and I re-made my bathroom. We painted it brown and beige...sorry, beachcomber and mocha. It looks really good now. If only I had before pictures to illustrate the huge difference. Gone is the Sailor Moon poster that covered the window, now I have a fantastic curtain that was sewn by hand by Nefta. Gone is the ugly medicine cabinet, now I have a huge mirror with a wooden frame and wooden shelf. Gone is the yellow and blue painted walls. Gone is the old cheap toilet seat cover, now I have a nice looking wooden toilet seat. Gone is the bathroom rug that kept sticking to the floor and pealing, now I have a nice floor towel. Gone is the rickety cabinet, now I have a bunch of open shelves made of wood. A huge transformation, Nefta's vision and interior decorating now gives me an adult bathroom.

a walk in the park

my favorite tree

creek pan

These photos were taken at a park I go to annually. And every year I sit by this tree and take photos. I put together a panorama with multiple shots.

Red Breasted Nuthatch

My girlfriend had a big chunk of time off from teaching, so she spent all of January and with me in Montreal. We watched a lot of TV. And it seemed like every other commercial was a wildlife spot about the Red Breasted Nuthatch. We must have seen this commercial about 50 times, and each time we would make jokes about it, it became a running gag. When she is not with me, we usually play games with each other online. We do a lot of jig saw puzzles over the messenger. But since she was with me, there was no need for that. But as soon as she was back in Wellesley, we went to play a puzzle. Lo and behold! What was the picture on the puzzle? THE RED BREASTED NUTHATCH!!!!
