New couch, new camera

We got a new couch this weekend, well we actually got it awhile ago it just got delivered this weekend.  I cannot find a spot or position on it to be uncomfortable, god what an upgrade from stupid futons.  Sita and I have had a futon since we first got married, and I guess I never really realized how uncomfortable they are compared to real couches before this.  So, comfortable new couch + Josh = Josh didn’t get as much done this weekend as he wanted to.

Good news with the new couch, we had to store the old futon somewhere, so we chose the garage.  With that in the garage, one of the cars has been officially displaced into parking outside from here on out, which frees up allot of room in there.  Room for a heavy/speed bag stand that Fong and I have been wanting to hook up for awhile now.  Scott used to have a speedbag in his garage on Stonehill, we would spend hours at a time hitting that bag.  The bag, when hit right sets up a rhythm (sp?) that you can listen to and forget your worries, it was very therapeutic.  Scott, come on down!

Other news, I got a Canon F1 to help me in my goal of learning how to take photos the right way.  I took it with me on the way to San Clemente this morning to get a haircut.  I wound up spending most of the morning down there since the 5 was lockjawed solid with beach traffic (hot weekend down here in SoCal, hit 80’s or 90’s inland on Saturday, crappy).  So I bought a couple rolls of film, since I only brought one and started taking pictures of surfers, birds and flags so far.  I didn’t even finish one roll of film, I think I’m a bit too cautious on the shutter right now. 

I am quite excited though, I’m really looking forward to seeing how the pictures turn out, I’m sure my excitement will be equally matched by my disappointment upon seeing them though.  Right now I’ve got the pictures stored in my head, and they look great in there, I just have a feeling that out of the 2 major settings my camera has, I screwed up all three of them.  I guess we’ll find out later this week, I just have to finish off that roll of film…

Back to the couch for me now though.
