I’m calling this one “would you buy…”

Ok, I’ve been cogitating (I like that word, “cogitating”). So, I’m going to toss the query to the interwebs, and see what comes back…

In order to earn extra money, I’ve been toying with the idea of selling a few photographs online. Oh, did I tell you on Etsy?

“Are you a good enough photographer that your images would fetch a price?”
Answer: I have moments of “good enough.” I’m not trying to get rich…just supplement my income.

So, what do you think?

I’m going to look around the Etsy site to get a feel for how to set up such a “store” and pricing, etc. I do not think that it will be such a difficult prop; or am I fooling myself?

This is blog 1.

I’ve no idea why I said “This is blog 1,” but I did.

But as I think about it, I’ll just continue…. after this commercial break…

I liked these shorts.
I decided to buy these shorts.
These shorts were too small.
No they didn’t have any larger.
Oh well, guess what….

…..and we’re back!

During the break… Jejejejejeje

The Universe takes care of her own…in HER time.

I’ve often said that and still do.
I believe it.
I’ve experienced it.

example

I wanted sautéed green beans I got sautéed green beans and then some.
I wanted some knee length shorts in varying colours and styles I got knee length shorts in varying colours and styles and then some.
I wanted one million dollars Well, I didn’t get that, just wanted to see if you’re paying attention.

the WILL focuses the WORD. the WORD gives meaning to the EVENT. focus your WILL, speak the WORD and the EVENT will happen.

laters..

what an odd realisation…

In this case, the image says it all.

For the most part, I travel betwixt the head, the place where I consume nutritional bio matter, my regeneration chamber and the various yards. But that’s it. I very rarely, if ever, unless someone is visiting me (and that NEVER happens) use the living room.

Anywhoooo, I sitting here, watching tele (Young Justice) feeling…..uncomfortable.

Almost done for the day., waiting for the sprinkler guys to come and do their thing to the irrigation system NEXT door, then off to the depot of homes (Jejejejejeje) to get stuff for the next project.

I actually had to tell someone to hurry up schedule me, because I seem to be booking up quick. And its gotta be done soon, becauseI don’t work outdoors in the heat…FOR ANYONE

as seen today whilst queued for petrol (yeah, I said “queued” and “petrol”)

It has been decided…

As of today……

Right now……

Sunday’s are reading days.

It arrived today!

Ever had a client claim to be “cash poor” at the moment….especially when its time to be paid? Well, I’ve an answer to that….

Plug this baby into my iDevice and swipe away. The client signs the screen for a screen capture, and the moolah is deposited into my bank account minus the small fee from Square.

What the fuck are y’all talking about??????

Dear Many Of My Facebook Friends,
What the fuck are y’all talking about??????
Sincerely, Zack de la Rouda

Now this may be some quote from some song I’ve never heard of, but it made me think.

So, drew, what is so “BOOYAKITTY” about that?

Well, it made me think and ask, what do I, are we talking about?

So, I took a look at my timeline to see just what my friends/”friends” and I “talk” about.

You know what I discovered?

I discovered that FB discussions range from…

health issues (BTW, please ring your parents about any health concerns BEFORE posting them on your timeline. It saves you from unnecessary drama, just sayin’)

Discussions on life and love. I mean, we’ve all read the impassioned, emphatic protestations of love and hate.

Children and pets. Our two and four legged friends seem to take up a lot of out discussions. I noticed that I had/have become one of those people who posts pictures of pets and other folks children.

Books, Television, Music and Movies- I am a GetGlue whore. So stickers about various movies, books, television shows litter my wall. I try to remember to disable the FB feed for GetGlue, but there are times when I forget. Speaking of music….holding on for MORTAL LONGING by Sleepthief.

Personal accomplishments/misfortunes. Be they birthdays, anniversaries, births, deaths or divorces. We seem to want to share them with our “subscribers/friends.” We need and want that “virtual” support.

Our drunken escapades. Is elaboration necessary? sidebar with employers and potential employers paying closer attention to what we do when away from the office, you may want to reconsider those Atlantic City drunken party pics (we have freedom of……STOP, right there because we don’t that is an illusion….a dream. We only have freedom of speech/expression when it does not offend others.)

Our individual causes and those things nearest and dearest to our hearts. And that really ranges from Atheism to sounding to zoology and all things in-between.

But to shuck this to the cob (yeah, I still like saying that), we are talking about are the things that matter to us at that moment. It may not be important to you, but consider this…your postings may not be important to us.

I think that we are reaching out the best way we can in a world where just in order to survive, we have to work 50 hours plus just to make rent. We are trying to build a community, albeit an electronic one, but a community nonetheless. We are trying to connect with people in a world where F2F contact is becoming a thing of the past. We are trying to be noticed.

I do not know if this was his purpose, but Zack……

Thanks!

Just from where do our thoughts come? :-)

Ok, please check out Internal Luminosity for more background. But to fast forward, there were a series of questions at the end of the blog and the last on made me wonder, so, I am using that as a jump off for my return.

Here are my answers ……

How does your brain work?
I went through several answers until I came up with BASIC programming.
What is the desired outcome?
Do I possess the correct tools to achieve desired outcome?
If “Y” the goto line 9
And then at line 9 one set of instructions
If “N” then goto line 20
And at line 20, a completely different set of algorithms ( is that clear? )

When is your thinking most productive?
Oddly, any time of the day. I can be hiking a trail, talking with friends, peeling potatoes, gardening, listening to music, reading http://internal-luminosity.blogspot.com and BOOYAKITTY (that is my version of an Oprah “Aaa-ha” moment).

What do you do when your thinking is challenged or stops working?
I tend to do a few things. I will either walk away from it for a while; or research the issue. Perhaps I’m missing something that would make the picture clearer.
Ask myself, if I am having this much difficulty with…., should I give it more thought?
When all else fails, I sleep on it.

How do you navigate challenges in your thinking?
Frustration
Then I re-evaluate and the BASIC kicks in.

From where do your thoughts originate?
Perhaps this will answer this question.
My thoughts start in space. As they enter the grav field and are slowly pulled to Earth, the fluff and whimsy are burned off. And when it finally finds itself in my head, BASIC kicks in.

You know what? As I look back at that answer….I’m not thinking that’s not right. Where do my thoughts originate? I now query myself, because there have been times when a thought has entered my mind, something that I would never think about as SOP. And I will often stop shake my head and ask, “Where in the hell did that thought come from?” (yeah, crappy grammar and all)

I have to….think about this..BOOYAKITTY, what if our thoughts are just a cumulative….no not the word…an agglomeration of what we’ve read, heard, been told, lived and live..the sum of our life experiences and those a round us?

Now I am here, wondering …and this just came to mind…as situations/opportunities arise, based on life experiences …..naaah

So, what do you think? From where do our thoughts originate? I’m perplexed – or am I?

The “true” Phoenix force

The past

Just saw a post (on Facebook) about fidelity and trust by an old AQUAINTANCE and recalled that’s not how it really happened. But then realised that was how he justified his less than helpful behaviours then, and continues to do so to this day. And then realised that if we “re-write” our past to suit us, how can we ever learn. yeah, deep thoughts for a Sunday morn. Jejejejeje

Crikey! I missed it by 4

And I had but an image to post.
