Perpetually off.

You probably haven’t noticed, but the content of past few daily pictures really hasn’t been that recent. What you’ve been seeing for the past few days are what I’ve managed to scrape off the bottom of my picture archives. Usually I prefer to post up more current shots, but I’ve been lacking in those after dropping my camera three weeks ago.

I was folding some programs for Alumni Weekend when I knocked my Nikon off the counter and broke off the power switch. Now the thing is as useless to me as a penis is to an 80-year-old man – limp, lifeless, and unable to be turned on.

I just wish I could have waited another twelve hours or so to break it. If my camera had managed to survive through that night, I might have been able to photograph my friend Brian showing his bitterness to the ref during the Alumni basketball game by giving the official the finger, removing all his clothing, and storming off the court in nothing but tighty-whities.

Ah, high school reunions are much more fun when there’s partial nudity involved. Maybe next year we can get Mrs. Newcomb in on the action.

Anyways, I took my camera in to Best Buy a few days ago, and I should have it back in a week or two. Thank God for extended warranties.

So until the repair guys give me a call, enjoy more one-to-three-year-old daily pictures.
