Day 680 - Easter Cake - 03.31.13

Happy Easter everyone.  My Easter was spent mostly agonizing in bed.  I think I was sicker today than yesterday.  I really wish I would feel better.  Now because of all the coughing my muscles really hurt when I cough.  Enough of my troubles.  The highlight for the day was most certainly the amazing dinner my wife made which culminated in this tasty cake.  Yum.  It was something I saw today.

Day 679 - Harley Quinn - 03.30.13

I was still sick today, but I did pull myself together enough to trek down to Anaheim for WonderCon.  It was the first comic book convention I've ever gone to.  That is kind of amazing since I have been collecting and reading comics off and on since the mid 80's.  I only stayed a couple hours because I was really not feeling well and all the crowds weren't helping.  I went there looking for some Animal Man and Tomb of Dracula comics.  I found just about everything I was looking for, plus a few other goodies.  Before leaving a took just a couple photos.  My plan when I got there was to look for comics and then spend an hour or two just taking photos of people in costumes.  Unfortunately by the time I found my comics I was feeling hunger and miserable so I took a couple shots and left.  There were a lot of great Harley Quinn costumes.  This one was great because she had the giant mallet.  She was something I saw today.

Day 678 - Charging Batteries - 03.29.13

What a miserable day.  I got the flu.  It started last night and I couldn't sleep.  Then today I just laid around the house.  I watched a little TV, but mostly I laid in bed.  I looked for an easy photo and came up with these batteries I had charging on the wall.  It was something I saw today.

Day 676 - Buddha Drawing - 03.27.13

My friend Connie at work has a gallery up of some large scale drawings she has done.  One of them, this one, is based on a picture I took for this blog almost a year ago.  She called me a few months back and asked me if she could do a drawing of it for her show.  I said it was fine.  It is interesting how this image has re-appeared on the blog, but in a different form.  So anyway this is hanging on a wall I pass every day and I took this picture as I was leaving work.  It was something I saw today.

Day 675 - Scottish Rite Cathedral - 03.26.13

I was in Pasadena this morning to visit my dentist.  On the way home I took a round about way in hopes of seeing something interesting to photograph.  On the way there I passed a street that looked like it had an interesting building on it so I went back to find it.  It was the Scottish Rite Cathedral.  Flanking the steps on the front were two statues of what I think may be sphinxes.  I could be wrong.  This is one of the statues in close up.  It was something I saw today.

Day 673 - Little White Chapel - 03.24.13

This afternoon I drove my daughter to a friend's house and on the way back I drove by the Little White Chapel, which is a church in our neighborhood.  It was used once on the TV show "Raising Hope" a while back.  It is really a cute church.  It was something I saw today.

Day 672 - Sin City - 03.23.13

This afternoon I picked up a movie that I've been wanting to re-watch for a number of weeks now.  I haven't seen Sin City since it came out and recently I have been very much into reading old comics as well as watching Tarantino and Rodriguez films.  So that lead me to picking up the movie.  This is the case and is something I saw today.

I visited the Mission in San Juan Capistrano today.  I went with my mother, sister, wife and daughter and met and aunt and cousin in hopes of seeing some swallows return.  We didn't see any.  We still enjoyed the festivities for St. Joseph's day.  There were lots of children's groups singing and some mariachis.  We toured the grounds and the church, which still holds mass every morning.  This crucifix is at the front of the chapel.  It was something I saw today.

Ever since I was a kid and the Beastie Boys rapped about flying a Fat Burger when they were way out west I wanted to try a Fat Burger.  I've lived in California now since 1997 and I never had one until tonight.  I finally made a point of going and trying one out.  I was extremely pleased.  Aside from the tasty food the Fat Burger we were in was playing some great old blues.  Nice.  This is the sign on the side of the restaurant.  It was something I saw today.
