Boo!
Messing around with channels in Photoshop for a glow effect on a shot taken of my toothy pumpkin:
That air conditioner of mine is nothing but trouble. It dies during heat waves and parties, and is now a security risk. I noticed that it didn't really have an security bars around it, and that window is the only window without bars, and thought more than once that a clever burglar could easily remove it and get in. Luckily my house is a mess and a thief couldn't find anything right now but winter coats and drag paraphenalia.
My upstairs neighbors weren't so lucky yesterday. A thief broke in through their air conditioner window unit and stole a few laptops and some clothes (?). Must have been a crackhead, as some stealable items were still there, and only light items were gone. I was lucky and they didn't get into my place, but I removed my window unit A/C and wedged the window tight with a board. The landlord is getting window bars for A/C units for the both of us.
Happy Halloween! I'm going to be a Halloween Grinch and am going to a movie tonight with a friend.
New word: dirty mackerel - a person who will make out with anyone. "Gurl, Piranha Sean was a dirty mackerel the other night at Remingtons..." As a fish species, mackerel are wide-ranging pelagic school fish with big lips.

Hey!! Just for the record, while I may have, at times, behaved in true dirty mackerel fashion, I have not ever (yet) made out with anyone at Remingtons!

Is dirty mackerel synomonous with DSL? Dick sucking lips?

No Sarah. I have almost no lips, and can still work it like a dirty mackerel. Lip volume and fullness is not directly linked to dirty mackerelness. It's the effor that counts.
