4x400


4x400, originally uploaded by blazinhispazian.

I feel sick right now. Just glad I didn't get a heat stroke or anything. Sure was hot out there. 10 hour workdays...well, work at the track anyways. I guess if I want to be technical about it, I've been working since 8am and it's 9:15pm now minus an hour of getting pics up on Flickr, that what? 11 hours?

Well anyways, track is over with. Three days of non-stop work with some sleep in between. Got a headache but all in all, I'm happy with the pics. Shot the entire meet on a Rebel Xsi. For a $900 camera, sure does the job well. Only problem is, it takes SD cards and I only had 2 gb of those this weekend.

Well my 40 pics are sent out but still got CD-R's to burn. Probably end up with 10 or more of those. Got a ton of pics, few thousand. Really wish I had that smugmug account to sell some since my work with the Summit League is freelance afterall. Got asked by a few parents at the meet. Bah, maybe next year.

Well I'm gonna go take a shower and start packing, I feel this sunblock starting to get in my eyes.

Adios

Windy weather


Windy weather, originally uploaded by blazinhispazian.

I'm trying to watch There Will Be Blood but the CD drive on this laptop always craps out about halfway through a movie. ARGG. Haven't gotten to that milkshake part either. hmph.

Well just been shooting baseball. Got canceled today and moved to Monday because of this weather we're having.

I woke up and looked out the window this morning and saw how windy it was so of course, checked the scanner for anything. Heard there were some trees down and then something about an important powerline in the Hardee's parking lot about 2 blocks away so checked that out, nothing but cops sitting in their cars, drove around some more, heard about this tree outside of Sherman Hall. Took some pics and that was that. Gas is way too expensive for me to be cruising around looking for pics that aren't getting published.

So yeah, baseball doubleheader tomorrow and then hopefully get my 20D back from repairs on Wednesday for the Track and Field Championships Thursday-Saturday.

Can't wait till Kansas. Less than a month now...

This is bad. So my camera broke today. Right in the middle of shooting a baseball game. No, I should say start since I only got about 100 pics in (mostly pregame).

I got an Error 99 and the thing just kept on shooting. Not recording any pictures but battery showed dead and it just wouldn't stop. Lens or no lens, on or off, replaced batteries both main and internal. This sucks. I have no idea what I'm going to do. I guess I'm glad it didn't happen last night.

I got to figure this out before my internship June 1st.. ugh.
