What a week at the flower shop.
For some unknown reason, the shop was extra busy this week and this is a wonderful thing for my wife and her parents. "Add on's" like a box of chocolate, stuffed animal or balloons were all the rave......business was booming! After working my 11pm to 7am job Wednesday night, when I got off Thursday morning, I went to the shop and delivered flowers all day. My daughter and I went to bed around 10pm Thursday night (I was so tired). My wife didn't make it home until 1am (they don't leave until all the orders are completed for the following day). My wife and I were back at the shop by 7am Friday morning and I made my last delivery at 6pm Friday evening. We were dead dog tired Friday night and our standard practice is NO celebrating Valentines on the 14th. However, yesterday was the best day after Valentine's EVER! |
I do not understand people who don't cross against the red light when no car is anywhere near.
I think they're all waiting for the return of their FÜHRER. |

You're totally right, it should look something more like this, that scene was for added dramatic effect ;)

Brilliant! I despise this SOOO fucking much. People. Resist the temptation. You don't need a collection of shitty pictures are terrible videos. Here's a simple thought, "WHY NOT ACTUALLY JUST ENJOY THE SHOW!" People are trying supplement actually memories of actual experiences with virtual ones. Fuck that shit, people are destroying their own brains.. ![]() |

People angered over other people taking pics or videos at gigs is one reason
I'm glad I don't go to as many of them anymore. My best friend had one of his "terrible vids" used for an official music video. It's not too dissimilar from people who say they "hate" food pictures on Instagram. "Enjoy it," they say, "don't document it." Because both aren't possible? Same with pics or vids of live gigs. I say this not to start beef, I say this because I resent the implication that whipping out the phone at a show means one is denying themselves "the real deal." What does that mean? |
I take pictures and videos at gigs too sometimes (like anyone is going to stop me from doing what I want to do with my camera). Suchfriends hates this, I find that Tumblr blog amusing. We're like the Jackson family!

i've taken photos and even shot video at shows (with big cameras and stuff) but i think the problem these days is not that the audience video is "shitty" (whatever that means) but rather that it interferes with other people's experience of the show for two principal reasons:
1) photographers used to stand in the front row (some still have a space), and shoot whatever they wanted. or, if you were some rows back, maybe you used a zoom or whatever. i've shot video where we had designated spots, etc (as most video shoots will do) in bars, theaters, etc. i don't know about others but it makes me self-conscious and you try not to bother the audience. however, most cellphone photographers/videographers feel entitled to their shots and invariably RAISE THEIR HANDS right in front of your face where they can best block your view and put themselves in your personal centers stage. 2) whereas "old" photo/video was shot looking through a viewfinder, lcd screens light up in front of everyone's face in what is often a dark space. multiply this by the curtain effect of everyone and their mother raising their hands in front of everyone else behind them, and you understand why zooey deschanel bans phones at her band's shows (ha ha). this has nothing to do with being in the moment or whatever, but everything to do with fucking it up for everybody else-- like people with pneumonia coughing at piano concerts. don't tell suchfriends he's wrong though. he might get irate! |

The weather down along the Gulf coast here in Texas has been unbelievable the past couple of days. As I type, it's 77' outside and I just came in from cutting the front yard. WOW - it feels great outside! While cutting, I found two bird carcasses......wonder how they ended up in the yard covered by leaves?
Fixing me a firefly and going outside to enjoy this wonderful weather...... |
Quote:
well, yes. same as driving texters, etc. |
A firefly?
The weather is great here too! 45 and sunny! |
|
I hope firefly means one of these...

I take lots of photos at shows at the same time as recording (audio) and sometimes video too. I don't think they're shitty and I still enjoy the show. I try not to block people's view when I'm taking them and I turn the brightness right down on my phone if I'm using it. I see no problem with documenting it for me and others who can't be there. I do get a bit annoyed when people are holding up an iPad to take photos/film. Those things are too big! |
