Relaxing watching The Wire

After shooting in film for the last couple of days, I really wanted to take a photo of something not grainy. Oscar was a happy model for this event. Tonight we’re hanging on the North Side watching the last season of The Wire. It’s a really good cop show – surveillance on drug dealers and human trafficking and other social ills. While it’s entertaining, it shows compassion and understanding toward homeless people and kids dealing drugs. There’s also all the corruption in government. It’s scandalous!

I’m looking forward to the weekend. I’ve got more baking planned and I’ll be trying out a new recipe that Mike’s mom gave me – lemon curd. I thought I’d use up the rest of the pie pastry I made a couple of weeks ago and make lemon tarts – it’s recipe fusion! Also, I have a 911 call from my cousin about how to properly make Puffed Wheat Squares, so I’ll do a step-by-step for her and my Uncle Bill. It’s a cry for help! I feel compelled to answer them.

And in the film shooting department, I shot another roll of film, but didn’t use the attachment needed to make the viewfinder work correctly – another incident of not using all the pieces. Again. Consequently, I picked up a roll of film with grainy photos of 1/2 a basket of flowers (just the bottom half) and part of the cathedral steeples (both crosses at the top cut off) but got one pretty cool photo of the meteor sculpture over by the Skytrain Station. I’ll post that later to my Flickr account. I’m making mistakes, but I think by next month, I should be okay if I keep at it.
