halloween

Sometimes I like to go to Picnik.com and play with their photo editing.  Today I noticed they have Halloween effects.  Flicker has Picnik, but it does not do as much as going straight to Picnik.com.  You can make red eyes or green glowing eyes and ghoul effects and blood.  Too fun.   Since green is my favorite color, I had to have green glowing eyes and lips.

They have even better effects if you go professional, but that costs money and I don’t want to upgrade and spend the money.  Everytime I go there to edit, I really do want to upgrade, but I don’t.  I really should go buy me a Photoshop program.  I had one, but it was for XP and now that I have stupid Vista, my old photoshop does not work. 

I noticed that Gimp does a lot of stuff that Photoshop does and I might get enough nerve to download it, but I don’t really want to download it because I heard it is loaded with pop up ads and I don’t want to see ads even though the program is free. 

I bought a big bag of candy bars to give out for Halloween.  It is bite size candy bars and I opened the bag and ate a few of the candy pieces.  They taste so good.  I sit on the couch and that bag is calling to me. 

“Pssttttt…..Connie……I am full of Snickers, Twix, Milky Way bars.  Try me….NOW.”    Ok, so I go over and cut the bag open and decide to try one, so I get a Twix, and then maybe a Milky Way. 

They taste so good, I get a few more.  They are really small pieces, but I decided the small pieces taste much better than a giant bar.  They are just the right size to just melt on your tongue and feel the chocolate go all over your tongue and then taste the caramel.  It also has 3 Musketeers.  I don’t like those as much, no caramel, and the center is this strange texture stuff, like a blob of goo. 

Tonight was pizza night and movie night.  I bought the DVD Transformers 2, the new one that just came out.  I really liked watching this movie.  I think it is better than the first one. 

I made the pizza.  You can see my pizza video here.   Sometimes I just don’t want to go out to get a pizza.  Especially on Friday.  The restaurants are all packed and you have to wait to get seated. 

James sent me a post card from Chicago.  Thanks for thinking of me James.  I didn’t even know you were going to Chicago.  I would like to go there someday.  I would love to go visit their aquarium.  I just went to Stone Mountain, in Georgia.  It is beside Atlanta.  We went and saw the Georgia Aquarium.  It was wonder.  I took lots of pictures and videos.stone mountain trip 071

I loved watching this big tank full of sharks, they had a huge whale shark.  I think the fish I was most amazed to see were the cuttlefish.  They  have big eyes and change colors.  The jelly fish were so pretty to watch too.

It was wonderful looking at all the fish.  I could just sit there and watch them all day.

  1. I don’t know what it is about zoos and aquariums… they leave me cold. I think it’s just a shame to see the animals in captivity like that.

    Chicago was OK… nothing special really, but worth seeing the once at least.

    Glad you liked the card. ;-)

    Oh, and that picture of you is creepy! ;-)
