cats are generally fairly nice animals…. i dont have anything against cats, except that they make me feel horrible…

according to wikipedia it is not the cat, but the cat glycoprotein Fel d 1 secreted by the cat’s sebaceous glands. Fel d 1 is mostly found in the cat’s skin and saliva.

Lorraine has a cat, and i was with it for about a minute today, but right now my eyes are watery, puffy and red, and I’m sneezing uncontrollably. If I’m not sneezing my nose is running…. damn cats…

LOL Cats are funny though

i just realised I haven’t posted here in a week… I haven’t really been doing much recently, Monday past was may day so I was off work, but me being me decided to take the whole wee off, and i definitely chose the right week to take off, the weather has been fantastic, and as usual I got sunburnt, I never learn… Gonna head to Belfast and chill out in Botanic gardens I think… then have a bbq later on with the guys at the house… should be good fun… might have something worth posting about then…

Had a photoshoot with these guys last night

there are a few photos on my flickr

Thanks to Phil for helping me out, holding reflectors etc… much appreciated bro

American Idol, Family Guy, E.R. and photo editing…

For once my sunday afternoon wasn’t filled with the usual, photocopying music, doing powerpoints, getting ready for either YF or praise group, instead I spent it chilling out with lorraine, drinking the finest drink known to man (read: coffee) and  enjoying the fine weather we had today.. for once my sunday was actually really relaxing and restful…

Lorraine can really make some kick ass cupcakes… they taste so good…

I’ve always loved the GTA games, sure they are full of violence and stuff, but there is something unique and addictive about the games… the latest offering from Rockstar is released next week, and for the first time it is being released at the same time on the Sony and Microsoft consoles…

I wont however be getting the game next week, as i dont own a either a PS3 or 360… so it will be a while before I get the game… but i just read this online…

Previous GTA titles have been released on the Playstation first with other formats coming months or even years later.

When Rockstar announced a simultaneous release, it sent small shockwaves around the industry Piers Harding Rolls

But Grand Theft Auto IV will go on sale on April 29 on both the Playstation and the Xbox 360.

To make matters worse Rockstar has entered into a partnership agreement with Microsoft to release future online updates exclusively through the Xbox marketplace.

Piers Harding Rolls at Screen Digest said the deal could undermine PS3 sales of the game.

He said: “GTA was always synonymous with the Playstation, so this is definitely a coup for Microsoft.

This a pretty a pretty big deal, especially for PS3 owners, GTA has always been synonymous with the Playstation brand, and now Rockstar have signed an exclusivity deal with Microsoft for updates for the game… I think this is going to really piss off playstation owners… microsoft must have given rockstar a serious amount of cash for this deal…

I’ve been reading loads about flash photography recently, how to use my flash gun properly, and all about lighting and that sorta stuff… man it really fries my head, and worst of all flash/lighting gear is expensive, but I was on lauren’s blog and came across a link to this website. It seems like a really useful website, hopefully it will teach me how to use flash properly…
