Photo of the Day & Weekend  
My new camera came in, and I am quite excited. While I love my huge Nikon, it’s essentially … huge. I wanted something lightweight to take on trips or even just when I go out … that takes DSLR quality (or close to, because none ever do) photos. So, I did a lot of researching, and kept coming up with this one. I did take some photos this weekend, which I’ll post later. Mostly close-ups of flowers cuz who doesn’t love that? :D

So here’s a shot of it that I took with my phone and then edited in Instagram :D

In other news, we celebrated my dad’s 62nd birthday this weekend (and we hope for many more). It was actually last Tuesday, so he receive many cheers :D But on Friday night we went out to Flatbread Pizza, which boasts of all organic ingredients, which is always good. The pizza was banging, and then we had strawberry shortcake whoopee pie afterward with strawberry ice cream. It was quite yummy.

Saturday I didn’t do much of anything except sleep and play WoW. I’m still feeling under the weather, and it’s a crap feeling. It’s been going on for weeks now. I am too stubborn to go to a doctor, and I know that’s bad … but yeah. Last thing the family needs is more bad news, lol and not to say what I have would be bad news, but that just seems to be the luck our family has (which is ironic).

Sunday we all got together at Danny’s house to watch the FIFA 2014 Final. I personally didn’t watch it since my teams were out (Portugal and USA), so I was watching Bones reruns while they watched the game. We had some lunch together, and Nelson got a cake for dad’s Bday, so we sang Happy Bday again and had some cake (: Ended up going home close to 8pm.

I was going to play WoW, but like many things lately in my life, I’m losing interest in it. I think it’s a summer thing, because it’s very quiet in the guild with people going away or spending time outside (instead of stuck on their computers :D). I’d rather be outdoors myself, so I really can’t blame them. Instead, I watched a bunch more Bones reruns and watched another four episodes of Reign.

That show makes me have wicked dreams (Reign). It usually means I am too invested in the show, and will probably have to stop watching it, because the dreams are so real I wake up feeling way too disoriented. It’s odd, I know. It’s what happened with Vampire Diaries. I was having some crazy whacked out dreams to the point I would wake up feeling awful. I had to stop watching the show ): I don’t get why some shows do that to me and others have absolutely no effect on me (like I can watch Bones a billion times and have no problem). I think it might be because they get me sucked in so emotionally, that I actually start to feel for the characters (which is a good thing, but yeah…bad).

The other show that has me sucked in but thankfully isn’t giving me dreams is Dominion. I really do enjoy the show. I hope SyFy doesn’t pull it because I love SyFy shows but they rarely make it past season 5 it seems. Right know Haven is filming its 5th season and that’s another show I love … so I hope it’s not the last one lol.

So yeah … that was my weekend. I’ll post some photos from the new came later (if they didn’t come out like ass :D).
