Bummed

Last night I took some wicked videos of the fireworks, with commentary and everything!   For some reason when I uploaded my photos, it didn’t upload the videos… but I didn’t notice.  So this morning I deleted all the photos to make room for some morning after pics and deleted the videos.

GODVERDOMME!!  (That’s me swearing in Dutch, it’s part of my integration!)

Fireworks NYE 2007/2008

Not only did I delete my videos, but last night was really foggy, and on top of that the air was totally full of smoke from fireworks.   So instead of seeing fireworks, the sky just changed color.   Man, I was pissed!

I did manage to get a few photos but nothing like I imagined.   I remember sitting on the balcony and thinking, jeez thank god I got some video because my pictures are really gonna suck.  Feh…

Morning Walk

As usual, the city was a total mess this morning, the roads covered with papers from the fireworks the night before.   Bailey was very curious about what all this stuff was.   The poor little dude had a rough day on NYE, there were so many firecrackers going off all day that we had to go to the vet in the afternoon to get something to give him because he was losing his mind.

Spencer by the Christmas Tree

Spencer, on the other hand, was as cool as a cucumber.  I think they could have been shooting the fireworks at him and he wouldn’t have blinked an eye.   Salem was pretty much the same, but I didn’t get a photo of him.  He’s avoiding the camera since I cut a big knot of hair off his side and left him walking around with a giant bald spot.  He’s so vain.

  1. Wow, that sounds like a serious gaaaaa! moment. It always takes me awhile for stuff like that to sink in, perhaps a defense mechanism so the sane and sensible part of me will have a few moments to keep the rest of me from totally flipping out.

    Don’t you just hate those friggin firecrackers? When they go off here my ‘doggy’ cat Sunny hides under the bed the whole time, but my ex-street cat Azar (who was born under a car) just goes ho-hum and doesn’t even seem to notice.

    Thanks for stopping by my place – I’m now going to go pin myself on your map. :)

  2. It was a war zone here lastnight and tonight. The fog was so bad we couldnt see the hand in front of our faces. Everyone held off and let theirs off tonight. I cant believe the booming sounds and how big they were. Everything was a mess today. Im so glad it’s over!!

  3. That would totally piss me off! I’ve never tried to take pictures of fireworks, maybe I’ll try that this year on July 4th.

    I so want to see a pic of the cat with the bald spot..
