I hate my job, I hate my job, you have no idea how much I hate my job right now. I put in extra hours Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday and Sunday in order to get reports out on time. Only to come in today (or rather, wake up today and check my email) to learn that nearly all of that work has to be redone. And I cannot start until tomorrow. Not only did I waste my time this weekend, but now I'll probably have to work even more this weekend to have any chance at getting my work done in a timely manner. Grrr...
Anyhow, because I was stuck with very little to do today, I managed to upload my photos from the pirate/ghost boat ride onto Flickr. This is my favorite one:
I do not have the steadiest hands in the world (this is probably an understatement to how badly my hands shake), so I have a lot of trouble taking even okay photos at night, because of the long exposure time when not using flash. When I have the opportunity, I like to set the camera on a flat surface, because then it is not subject to my shaking hands. To take this picture, I set the camera on the rails of the boat, and did not touch it while it took the picture. The angle is from the boat, and the blurriness of the Boston skyline is also due to the boat - we were moving that fast. I love this picture. :-)
I also forgot to mention in yesterday's post the number of fireworks displays we saw, from all around the Harbor. Kathy said that we could have only possibly seen three from where we were, but we must have seen more - her list (which did include Lynn) did not have anything from the south shore on it, and there were definitely fireworks in that direction.
Back to twiddling my thumbs until 6pm... :-/
