Inside the Red Head's Head<p><strong>Travel Plans and Parental&nbsp;Controls</strong></p><p>Bellana came home late last night. Late enough that I was asleep. I woke up at 4:00am for some reason and checked the driveway and her car was there. Wonderful! My step daughter is home!</p><p>By 8:30am though we had dropped her off at the airport. She’s flying to Denver, meeting a friend, and then driving back to somewhere in North Carolina. From there she’s going to Atlanta and flying to Orlando where she will meet up with the rest of us for our Disney trip the week after next.</p><p>That’s a lot of traveling!</p><p>Her flight hasn’t boarded yet, but according to flightaware.com it is still on time. Safe travels, Bellana! We love you!</p><p>On an unrelated note, I think I need to set up parental controls on my computer. I think I need to block ebay. Yeah… I bought another camera last night. What the fuck, Robert? This one is a 35mm with autofocus. It has a 50mm lens too. Bonus! I still don’t think I will take any film on our vacation, but it is pretty clear my self imposed two month film hiatus isn’t going to last more than a few days. Oh well. I tried.</p><p>While we’re on the subject of film, I got a notification from the lab I sent the last batch of film to that it arrived. That was Thursday afternoon. I was hope hope hoping that I would receive word that the scans were available yesterday but I gots nuttin’. I doubt they’ll be working over the weekend, so hopefully early next week we’ll have the results. I’m optimistic that the five medium format rolls come out okay. Four of them might at least. One of them might be a smidge under exposed. I had the light meter app on my phone set wrong during one roll. Dumb ass. Everything else (hopefully) was free of user errors or dumb ass fuck ups. Fingers crossed.</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/adult-kids/" target="_blank">#adultKids</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/destination/" target="_blank">#destination</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/family/" target="_blank">#Family</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/film-cameras/" target="_blank">#filmCameras</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/film-developing/" target="_blank">#filmDeveloping</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/film-photography/" target="_blank">#filmPhotography</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/gear-acquisition-syndrome/" target="_blank">#GearAcquisitionSyndrome</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/grown-up-kids/" target="_blank">#grownUpKids</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/step-kids/" target="_blank">#StepKids</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/travel-plans/" target="_blank">#travelPlans</a></p>
JackTimeline cleanser for my <a href="https://elsewhere.cozysumo.space/social?t=gearacquisitionsyndrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GearAcquisitionSyndrome</a> folks. Neither new nor new to me. Just needed a break in the scroll of doom. 📜<br>
Andreas Kilgus<p>Huch. Mir fällt gerade auf, dass ich schon seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr das Bedürfnis hatte, ein neues Musikinstrument oder sonstige Musiziertechnik zu kaufen. Wie groß sind die Sorgen, die ich mir machen sollte? Gilt man ohne das GAS überhaupt noch als vollwertiger Musiker? 🤔</p><p><a href="https://friendica.andreaskilgus.de/search?tag=GearAcquisitionSyndrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GearAcquisitionSyndrome</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.andreaskilgus.de/search?tag=Musiker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Musiker</span></a></p>

Craig Lee<p>Camera gear refresh in progress, part 1. Picked up a very nice used Olympus E-PL1 with kit lens on Friday.
