I scanned in 172 photos today. And it’s only 11:30.
I don’t know why I feel the need to digitize all these photos. The closest I can come to it is that I will probably never look at them again if I don’t scan them now. Also, there is a big stack of memorabilia lying around that I would love to digitize and throw out. Exhibit A:
After work I went over to the library to use their Internet. I knew that it would be a pointless waste of time, but I had a glimmer of hope. It was dashed within the first five minutes. All of their computers are set on 800×600 resolution and use Internet Explorer.
I couldn’t multitask at all. I checked my e-mail and tried to write blog post, but that’s just not possible when you know you have a 15 minute limit.
Tonight I hope to scan the color photos I took when I was in my photography class, and some pictures I took a Kelly’s house a very long time ago (especially infuriating, because I know I have them on CD somewhere). Eh, I think I will save those for last.
Well, here are some photos from what I’m scanning. Here’s me in my senior year of high school:
Here’s my grandma and grandpa chillin’ at Manhattan Beach in SoCal in 1942
Here’s a photo I took while I was in Times Square a few years ago.
Here’s a picture from October of 1976 of the boat my dad built near the Sacramento River. It’s called the Nasci Liber (free person, in Latin). He’s into all that Ayn Rand crap. My mom told me that the other fishermen called it the “nasty liber.” ;):
