After completing the paperwork necessary to get into my work’s 401K plan, I spent a large portion of Saturday on the Interweb looking for pictures of Alyson Hannigan. She plays [“played”…. *welp*] the character “Willow” on TV’s Buffy. I have the most ridiculous crush on that girl. I even printed one of the pictures; it shall spruce up a lucky wall somewhere in the apartment.
That was the confession, and here’s the epiphany. The Internet can chew up large portions of time!! !@#$*(!@& Looking through those photos took pretty much all afternoon and evening. Damn you, broadband Interweb. Damn you, Alyson Hannigan!
And because it just wouldn’t be fair to say all this and then not provide linky goodnesss, clicky: here, here and here.

Downtown waterfront, sunset
So I guess those photos I took Wednesday night turned out after all:
About 3 minutes to sunset.
I’m pretty sure this guy was no longer living. So sad. Foot provided for scale.
I sat on this ledge to take the sunset shot.
Not sure if it’s always like this, but I found the amount of media coverage on the new Pope kind of overwhelming.
Graffiti.
I think the the G.WIZ Science Center is here, too.
An old friend.
That’s it for the Wednesday night shots. Here’s one I took today. I’m sure glad I can recycle these somewhere (Publix takes them). This is just from the past three months:

April 21st, AKA “The day after the day after the day after Adobe purchased Macromedia”
So, I raced downtown tonight straight after leaving work (~7:45pm), with the intent of capturing some of the surrounding area while the light was still horizontal. Now I know where the G.WIZ Science Center is! Unfortunately, I don’t think many of the shots came out, though I don’t know for sure, because they’re still on my camera. But I did stop by the library, and, sure enough, they had Young, Fabulous and Broke — something like eight copies of it, six of which were out. Obviously in demand! The two which weren’t checked out were at a different library. But a number of Ms. Orman’s other books were there, including the 1997 “9 Steps to Financial Freedom”, so I checked it out. I guess we’ll see if I can get through it in two weeks. I should add here, that yes, I did finish Eats, Shoots and Leaves 🙂
