Remember to drink plenty of water

by

Eight glasses of water per day. Day 239/365.

Wednesday, 20 July 2011, Day 239/365.

I try to remember to drink as much water as possible during the day. I have a glass of water at my side and when it’s empty it’s a good excuse to get away from the computer to go and fill it up.

On the weekends when I’m not at work this routine goes out the window and I might get to the end of the day and realise I’ve hardly drank anything.

I used the iPhone camera+ app to take the above photo. It’s kind of similar to Instagram except the end resulting photos are in a higher resolution which I like.

Yearbook yourself

by

Not long after my old boss got his iPhone he came to work one day and got us all to pose for a photo so he could use an app to change our appearance. I can’t for the life of me remember the name but Yearbook Yourself comes pretty close.

I was researching one to use for The Surfer and while I didn’t end up using it on him I did have a lot of fun with myself and my son. Here’s me throughout the ages.

I’m in 1958 here. I quite like the look of these glasses and would get some in a flash if I could.

Here I am in 1968 with an afro. I know afro perms were popular in the 1970s.

I don’t think the 1974 afro looks better than the 1960s one. It’s a lot bigger though.

Below is 1984 and this is probably pretty similar to what I used to have in those days.

This is what I looked like at the end of the 1980s. I’d been doing perms for a little while and they continued for a little while longer until I gave them up. I hate to think how much hairspray I’d used here.

And while I’m poking fun at myself here’s a much more recent photo that JJ took and he asked me to make a funny face, so I did. Flattering isn’t it?

He’s not going to escape unscathed. Isn’t he cute with long hair?
