Black and White

If you're reading this today, it means I'm still having computer/technical problems.  I've pre-written this and scheduled it to spit out in the event I don't have the opportunity to write a "real" post.

I never write real posts anyway, right?

The good news is, I have "Apple Care" on my laptop so repairs will be free.  The bad news is ... I will have to abscond with other people's computers to write posts until my laptop comes home from the hospital.

I've been told it could take up to TWO WEEKS!

(I get the shakes just thinking about it!)

And didn't I just say I was going to try to get caught up on email, etc?  

Hmmm.  Maybe I can get some of it done.  (By the way - I will still see all emails and comments via my Blackberry.  How many emails I can respond to on that little tiny screen before I throw it against a wall is an entirely different subject, isn't it?)

Also, apparently I'd be better off with More RAM in my life.  I felt slightly violated when the Apple man suggested it.  Seriously, his eyes met mine and then he asked, "Would you like more RAM while we're at it?"

A little forward of him, don't you think?

I'll try to get back to nipple stories as soon as possible.  (The comments and emails yesterday clearly indicate a great love of nipple stories from both my male and female readers.)

By the way, the comment from Mama Llama yesterday made me snort out loud.  It said (in part): And my curiosity is piqued...did the nipple story have anything to do with The Torturer?  

Ha ha!  

*snort*  *snicker*  *guffaw*

And that's all I'm saying about that ....!

For now, I thought I'd share this photo.  

Some of you may have already seen it via Twitter.  I don't take black and white photos often, but once in awhile they seem to deliver a stronger visual impact than color shots.  As I left the beach last weekend I stopped mid-track as I crossed the railroad tracks.  (They run just a few feet from the beach itself.)  I glanced down the tracks and thought, "Wow!"  

A quick click later, I was on my way.

I *love* that photo, 24! TWO WEEKS that's an eternity in missing laptop time.

Let the internet be with you.

You threw your nipple against the wall? Wait, I misread that. Your Blackberry? Wait, now I get it, you reckon you might through your nipple against the wall. Well, be careful please.

Now that is an evocative photo.

I really like black and white photos. They speak to me dahlink.

Aw, that photo is worth a blowup and a frame!
And did you mention RAM and nipples in the same paragraph?? Way to get us all hot and bothered...

I go through severe withdrawal if my baby is inaccessible for two hours - I shudder to think of being separated from my third arm for two *weeks*. *shudder*

I am developing quite a love for black and white photography - Maureen is right, the train tracks photo is frame-worthy.

Best wishes to Mac for a speedy recovery.

Great photo. I love palms against the sky, and railroad tracks do prove perspective.
