ICYMI: "When Donna Kershaw, 80, of Atkinson, N.H. took on a volunteering role at MSPCA Nevins Farm after the loss of her husband, she didn’t expect a routine assignment caring for a litter of #cats to change her life. But Douglas, blind and recovering from severe health issues, captured her heart."

It’s #AdoptACatMonth and we’re spotlighting some of our sweet seniors in need of homes! Seniors are often overlooked because of their age, but they’re as loving as their younger counterparts and can be just as playful too. We’ve got senior #kitties at all four of our shelters (in #Boston, #Methuen, #Centerville on #CapeCod, and #Salem). Stop by during open hours to adopt and learn more about them at http://www.mspca.org/adoptacat 😺

The cameras and I went out again this morning… and I think we’re going out again later today as well. We’ll see how things go between now and then.

Today has been insane. I took the morning off so that I could take Miss Robin Sparkles the cat to her vet appointment. I dropped her off, ran some errands, went home, re-watched most of last night’s three episodes of Andor, went back to the vet’s office to pick her up, came home, ran another errand, ate lunch, and punched into work at 1:00pm.

That’s when it hit. I had meetings scheduled from 1:00-5:00. Bam. All of them. One after the other. At the same time I was getting hit with all sorts of customer issues and questions and hectic stress and wow… It’s 5:31pm now. I can punch out. I need a nap!

Here’s a picture of the clock downtown. It’s not a good picture, and don’t let anyone try to tell you that I thought it was a good picture… because it’s not a good picture. Whatevs, I’m going to go cook dinner for the love of my life and then go to sleep.

As some of you may remember, Moodini had quite the adventure last summer! He escaped from his home and was on the loose for two months before we were able to work with #Boston Animal Control to capture him and bring him to Nevins #Farm in #Methuen, where he's been living while adjusting to life with humans again.

All right, red head. It’s time to get off your ass and shoot some film. Enough procrastinating. Enough saying you’re going to do stuff and then don’t. Damn it!

I have four rolls of film ready to develop. Most of it is from our Disney trip back in May/June. There are a couple of shots that are actually from Fathers Day and they are likely the last pictures I will ever have of my dad. It’s time to get the friggin’ things developed.

But…

I have a roll in my Nikon that is nearly finished. I should shoot the rest of that first and then get five rolls developed, right? I also have a roll in my Pentax. I should shoot through that and then get all six developed, right? Right?

Damn it! I am procrastinating around my procrastination! Get off your faux-photographer ass, red head!

Sunrise at the ocean tomorrow is 6:47am and the forecast calls for mostly clear skies. That does it. I’m going pitcher shootin’ tomorrow. Go to the ocean, bang out the roll in the Nikon, take some digitals, come down the coast to the usual places like the Plum Island light house and bang through the roll in the Pentax along with some more digitals. Then if I still have film left, hit a few places in my town and work through the rest of it.

I am working in the office on Monday so I won’t be able to get to the post office. Tuesday I am working at home though, so by Tuesday morning we’ll have an order placed at some photo lab and I’ll drop everything off for shipping before work.

I have spoken. Make it so. This is the way.

In closing, here’s a shot of the Spicket Falls Damn in Methuen that I shot on Kentmere 100 film with my Nikon FG-20. Just because film is cool in a nerdy retro faux artistic bullshit way.

Google Maps took me the long way around to get to the highway this morning. I had to go through what is known as the five corners intersection (it’s just a five way intersection, nothing more exotic than that) which passes the oldest fire station in the city. I was stopped at the light so I took today’s photo a day pic. I can see how fascinated you all are.
