#266

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

I had to change my plans quickly today when I found out I had to go to work to clean (ugh) in lieu of “company” coming tomorrow. Since I had cleaned my apartment earlier, I really wasn’t in the mood, but I immediately thought of a good 365 pic. I rushed home from my errands (erm, seriously, trying on pink satin prom dresses at the mall so Mike Autry could laugh hysterically at me counts as errands) and set up the shot. I had to pull every lamp in my apartment into my room to get the light I needed, find my yellow dishwashing gloves, plug headphones into a sponge, and find cleaner that sprayed. I had just set the tripod up and taken a shot when the manager called me, asking where I was. So I fired off another few shots, changed clothes, and went to work.

When I got home and actually had a chance to look at what I’d taken, this one won hands down. It wasn’t the shot I originally planned; in fact, I only took it with the blog fourfour in mind. Note that no cleaner, sponge, or headphones are present. And, um, if you don’t catch the reference, you should really read more FourFour :)

And because I’m a slacker, I never posted the rejects from Day #263. I had the following shots, which I thought were pretty decent, but I didn’t feel they captured my day very well. I’d felt so boring all day that it seemed hypocritical to post a dramatic photo, so I posted the “official” 263, which may be the least interesting (at least in terms of Flickr’s “interestingness” algorithm) of all my 365 pics.
