I know it's been a long wait, but I finally have the results of the photo meme I posted oh-so long ago.

For [profile] rollinglilo , who wanted to see my refrigerator, coffee-maker and toes.  You can see the French-press on top of the fridge and also in the picture of my favorite mug further down.





For [profile] atomic_goo , who wanted to see the
toilet, because of her empathy for undervalued toilets.


For [profile] lady_saffir , who wanted to see my bookshelves, all of them.











For [personal profile] anthropologic , who wanted to see the contents of my bag, and something hanging on my wall.





For [profile] girlthirteen , who requested to see a picture of each meal before I ate it, and the medicine cabinet.  First, my breakfast of Golden Grahams:


And then my lunch of vegetarian hot dogs and jalepeno kettle chips:


And finally, the
homemade pizzas I made tonight - a pesto and tomato pizza and a mushroom and veggie-sausage pizza:.  Served with a nice salad (not pictured):

The outside of the medicine cabinet:


The inside of the medicine cabinet:



For [profile] wtfe_ezy
, who'd like to see what my sink looks like.  I chose the bathroom sink since which sink wasn't specified.



For [profile] lagizma , who wants to see my pretty lady.



For [profile] kexxy , who requested my hero and my favorite pair of shoes.  It was a tough call between Jung and RAW and the Jung picture was at hand.


And the shoes:



For [profile] skepticultist , who wanted to see stuff in my house that is only there to amuse.  While there are many amusing things in my house, this picture shows things that are there strictly for amusment.



For [profile] soavezefiretto & [profile] furison , who both asked to see my desk in very different ways.



For [personal profile] feather, who wanted to see what I see when I first wake up in the morning.  Usually my alarm is going off and thus I'm reaching to shut it off and therefore: my bedside table.



For [profile] ms_elusive, who would like to see my meager DVD collection since I recently got rid of my VHS and have yet to replenish them...



For [profile] gutzilla, who thus instructed me to "Go to the room you spend the most of your time in while inside then lie on the floor on your back and take a photo of the ceiling."



For [profile] laboli , who wanted to see the cats doing something silly.  Like Mr. Peepers doing yoga...


Or Figaro sitting on the CD player to open it and kill the music?



For [profile] dakinigrl , who requested my favorite coffee mug to drink from in the morning.



For [profile] choogy, who'd like to see that new microwave and where the hell I you put it.



For [profile] lucidpseudogod, who requested a section of wall or furniture that has been damaged/scratched/dented/stained/ruined... etc.  So here is the hole in the bathroom celing from a leak in the apartment upstairs.



For [profile] wwonka666, who requested a mistake, a blessing, a reason, an excuse.  So I decided to get it all in one photo - Ethan, a mistake in the view that perhaps I should not have had him so young, a blessing in the view that he is the most amazing and important thing to ever happen to me, a reason to strive for the light, for health, for happiness, a reason to be the best person I can be, and an excuse for why I haven't accomplished as much as I may have otherwise.  My son, oh how I love him so.

Granted, I lost my glasses a long time ago and it's difficult for me to read most of the book spines, but, no art books??

Not really! I've got a bit of stuff on Escher and Dali and some of my philosophy books fall into art criticism, but art for me has been more about making it than reading about it.

Thanks, this post was so fun to do :D Ethan's lucky and he doesn't even know it! (But he does seem to love hearing how much people think he's cute.)

Thanks for the tour. And.. damn.. that Ethan is gonna be a heartbreaker!

So Yeah.. we've decided that oneday [profile] lady_saffir, [profile] anubis75 and I are going to come up there and harrass you for a couple of days. hehehehe.

Hahaha, you have a popcorn machine? I've always wanted a mini popcorn cart 8D

I bet there are so many more interesting things to see in your house, at least it seems like it to me.
Your son's cute :)

That popcorn machine only makes a tiny bit of popcorn at a time :P But it's better than microwaving!

1)You kind of made me miss Golden Grahams. (I boycott Nestle). :(
2)Your cats are insanely beautiful.
3)I converted to DVDs late in the day as well. I am happy to see "Love Actually" in your collection, though I'd hazard a guess that it's maybe not yours?
4)Great mug
5)Is the Lost game fun?
6)What an amazing picture of Ethan!
7)Those pizzas look totally delicious.

1) Why for?
2) That's only half of them!
3) It's technically my girlfriends but I love that movie!
4) I bought it in the midst of my raver days :D
5) Got it for Giftmas, haven't played it yet. LOve the show though!
6) He took it himself, so I technically didn't fulfil my part of the meme in that regard :D
7) They were!

Great pictures! I really like this meme.

I'm amused by your "meager" DVD collection--I own exactly one DVD, so your collection looks pretty substantial to me!

A very cool meme my friend. Now, I'm thinking about doing it. Isn't that how it starts?
Thanks for letting us see some of the poetry in "a day in the life of jack".

Much love to you, I loved this post. In fact, I believe I will steal the idea from you to get over my february blues.

You do know that your son is exceedingly pretty, don't you? Yeah. I'm sure he knows it too, the little bastard.

Thank you, this post was so fun to do :D

Actually he, like everyone I suppose, looks for flaws and will only admit to being "average" (the modest bastard!) though he smiles and quite enjoys hearing about all this positive feedback I get from my journal.

Your son is quite the looker, as are you and your wife (how old is your child? You two appear so young!).

I daresay those are some interesting-looking pizzas.

Why thank you! As I'm rapidly approaching the big three-oh this summer, any comments attesting to my youth are more than welcome.

Ethan is eleven, I'm 29 and my girlfriend, Jacquelyn, a.k.a. [livejournal.com profile] antarcticlust, is 26. She's not Ethan's mum though, or my wife... yet :D

I came over here to see if I could find an icon post I wanted to share with a friend (still haven't found it), and found your journal instead.

We have the same microwave. I bought mine 3 weeks ago at Walmart after the old one stopped working after 11 years. I didn't really want to buy the one I did because it's too small, but I was on the cell phone while I was shopping and couldn't maneuver the bigger one into the cart and still keep the cell tucked under my jaw. So I bought the littler one instead. Is that crazy or what?

Your bookshelves. Where is The Subtle Knife??

I'm doing the [livejournal.com profile] 50bookchallenge and also read The Remains of the Day in January. Awesome, wasn't it?

Your son Ethan is beautiful.

So glad I stumbled over here and found this. :)

What a crazy set of coincidences :D

The Subtle Knife is out on loan. Yes, I'm a little library.

Ok, a REALLY weird set of coincidences!

Welcome to my world. It's a little different than the [livejournal.com profile] iconomicon but I'm sure there are similarities.

Nice to meet you!

I hope you don't mind if I add you as a friend. I subscribe to your icon community but your regular LJ is just as beautiful. :-)

Also, I love that picture you have hanging on your wall and your son is beautiful.
