Now that might seem a bit negative for a blog post title (Same Shit, Different Day) but it’s actually a curiosity, or an interest, when you put it in the context of your photos—especially if you’re shooting digitally, and have easy access to your files.
I was trying to find a photo today to add to a yet-to-be-conceived blog post, when I got curious to see what photos have I taken on this day, April 2, since going digital in 2004.
And here’s what I found and, interestingly enough, what photography phase I was in at the time:
April 2, 2004—The "WHERE IS MY BLACK VELVET? and the "I WILL PAY FOR SHOTS" phase.
April 2, 2005—The "Constant Documentation of EVERYTHING I DO" phase (pictured here at dinner at CKU Minneapolis.)
April 2, 2006—I didn’t take this shot. I believe it was the very talented Candice Stringham, but it is in my iPhoto library under this date, so it counts! I LOVE this shot of me and Ali.) It was also, strangely enough, at a CKU. We really wanted to use this in the final night slide show. Alas. Somehow, it got omitted. I can’t imagine why.
April 2, 2007—Apparently we see a return to the The "WHERE IS MY BLACK VELVET? and the "I WILL PAY FOR SHOTS" phase.
Which leads us to today, and I bet you’re wondering what killer shot I took on this day, April 2, 2008, aren’t you?
Psych!
Love,
Cathy

Hey, it’s also not nice to fool your readers!! 🙂
The photo of you and Ali didn’t load completely while I was scrolling down, so all I saw was a cut-off picture of your and Ali’s heads which was a little strange. I finished reading the post and began this comment and scrolled back up for something and the picture had finished loading. It’s a funny picture, but ended up being even more funny to me the way I actually viewed it.
See, you make me laugh even when you don’t mean to.

I love this perspective. I think I’ll go do the same thing for my blog entry today. Imitation is still the sincerest form of flattery, right?

That urinal thing is just WRONG. You must have been slap-happy from fatigue!

I just spit Iced Peppermint Mocha all over my Mac when I saw the picture of you and Ali. If my laptop doesn’t work in the morning it was worth it!

Don’t keep us in suspense… Tell us, phleeease. 😀
Hey, I made some of those tags with your “month tag template”. Mine are totally different from yours but I think they’re still really cute. If you want to see how someone else used your template please check out my blog: http://www.siennasmommy.blogspot.com. Thanks for the inspiration! I’m having too much fun with these tags. Perfect project for me. It’ll be a fun keepsake for my daughter. Keep up the good work! 🙂

So you and Ali are the reason the potty people (aka icons) became so popular this year:)
