That looks so cool. I always wondered if those disposable cameras work. It looks so professional. That would be cool to have an entire family album under water.
I'm pretty impressed with your disposable underwater camera as well. I was always unsure about selling them when I worked at Fred Meyer, because I pretty much thought they would be big pieces of plastic crap. However, that WAS about ten years ago...perhaps they were, then. And yes, Kelli, I'm happy now. Otherwise I would NOT have commented on your blog. Ever, EVER again. All is good in the world now. Also, are you not coming to DATS with Muff and me? That's lame, Kelli. LAME. What if I go into labor? I'm blaming you.
Oh, I miss you guys. Connor would have loved that. He needs someone as strong as Uncle Kyle to give him enough neck dislocation for proper little-boy pool enjoyment. Ryan's abuse just isn't cutting it.
NBA 2k12 --- I know. I KNOW. I've probably played the NBA 2k series for atleast 350 real life hours. And yes, I KNOW that if I applied that time to any sort of constructive endeavor, I could probably boast actual abs, an add-on to the house, or a historical fiction novel. But I just don't care. The 2k series is the best sports simulation series ever made. And I will probably play it until I die.
Madden 12 --- Since the NBA is in a lockout, with basically no signs of ever becoming anything more than rich people personally spitting on me and my devotion, I felt I needed to find a new outlet. As the NFL is the country's biggest obsession, I figured I had probably get on board. I bought this game in large measure to relearn everything I'd forgotten about football since the early nineties when I last cared. And it did it's work well.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution --- Upgrading a bionic man while tiptoeing through warehouses? I accept.
Mount and Blade: With Fire and Sword --- It seems at first glance everything you could want in a semi-tactical, mostly action-oriented historical battle game. You rouse troops, you train them, you arm them, you lead them into battle. You track looters and punish them. You try to navigate the political turmoil of 17th century eastern europe. But it's just so messy. It tries to be epic to the point where it seems unfocused. The interface is clumsy to me, and I got so sick of trying to learn the nuances of directing my troops that I always devolved into eventually abandoning them to their fates, while riding around lopping heads off. Cause that's where the fun was at anyway.
What Kyle's Reading
Nightlife by Rob Thurman --- Jeff introduced me to this author. After the density of A Song of Ice and Fire, it was nice to just jump into a light story with fun characters. Basically the story of what happens when demons make a baby, and the baby doesn't turn out to be that bad at being a person.
A Feast for Crows by George RR Martin --- He introduces a giant roster of new people. Some of them interesting, some of them not so much. It's kind of a grab bag of new information about regions not heard from before. But overall, the only book in the series that I had to force myself to read, instead of forcing myself to stop for the sake of sleep requirements. Still a good book, but one I had to just get through moreso than savor.
A Storm of Swords by George RR Martin --- This is my favorite volume so far. There were goosebump moments galore.
A Clash of Kings by George RR Martin --- Has one of the most intense battle sequences I've ever read. I can't wait to see it on HBO.

those turned out pretty awsome!
I know! I've made your cd. I'll send it as soon as I can...but I can't promise when that'll be.
Those are awesome!!! I really want an underwater camera... maybe someday. :)

I only said I wasn't decided about DATS. So keep your panties on.
I like Kyle's continual thumbs up in all the photos. Very typical white male of him. ;) Aren't underwater cameras the best?!
Those are great!!
I'll make sure to flash you another digit next time, Kat.
You should see the pictures I have of Kyle underwater. VERY non-typical white male.
