Who are YOU calling UGLY?

This shot just makes me smile – and I needed it after a long day.

I had to go down to Wilmington for some software training today – a prototyping software called iRise that looks pretty cool. Complicated but cool. And of course, after spending today and tomorrow learning it, I have to have a site prototype done in the next 10 days using it. Learning curve = logarithmic.

On the way home, I decided to pop in and see my grandfather at his shop. When I got there, however, I found out that he was in the hospital – they had taken him there a couple of hours before. So, I rushed over to the ER to find out how he was. Luckily, it seems to be mostly dehydration and weakness from not eating for the last couple of days. He sounded very weak and tired when I got there, but a couple of hours of saline and a ham-and-cheese sandwich later, he seemed to have some of his vigor back.

So, back to the emu – and the fact that I makes me laugh. It’s from my trip to see my nephew in April, and I just had to get a shot of this guy trying to stare me down. He won, by the way – I wasn’t going to mess with someone who was looking at me like that.
