A is for Appetite
I finally started sorting through the thousands of digital photographs stored on thumb drives, SD cards, external hard drives, back up CDs, unmarked DVDs and yes, floppy diskettes scattered throughout our apartment and in various cardboard boxes in the basement. What prompted this undertaking was a combination of insomnia and a warning that my laptop’s internal hard disk was running out of space. Sigh.
I came up with a plan…
- My main folder will be called Images. It’ll have two subfolders: Photographs and Illustrations.
- Photographs will be further divided into Originals and Modified.
- Originals will be organized by Photographer.
- Since the Akiko photographer will be the largest folder, the photographs there should be organized by Camera. (I have three or four, I think.)
- Within the Canon Powershot folder, I could organize by Person, Place or Thing…
The schema at the end gets a little sticky. I finally decided to just look for all my food photographs and stick them in one folder.
I love taking pictures of food, which is where I found the cute photo of the pink sugar cookie I used for this post. It’s from last year, when I was staying with Jacqui, the same time period I wrote the post Addicted to Sugar.
Ironically, I am still addicted to sugar. They don’t sell sugar cookies here in Hamburg and the Happy Kappy cupcake bakery is too far for me to drive. So, I’ve been making and eating lots of divinity fudge. And pumpkin pie. Mmm mmm.
It does come with a price, however. I am now 30 lbs. overweight and jogging an hour a day hasn’t the slightest effect. I took a glucose tolerance and insulin resistance test this morning and in nine days I’ll get the sober results.
Until then… I’m going to enjoy my last week of diet freedom.
