Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty...

o~Take me down to the paradise city, where the grass is green and the Girls are pretty.... oh won't you please take me home... yeah yeah~o
Got that song stuck in my head so yeah.
I guess it sorta fits. We had a few days of warm summer like weather. The grass did start turning green and it felt like paradise. As far as the girls are pretty... well I've been solidly striking out on the relationship front... but its still been on my mind. A LOT. Not going to go into it now... but needless to say the quest continues >.>
In other news, I have upgraded most of my photography and studio gear. All mid range stuff for the most part, and I am FINE with that. I can pull off some damn fine shots with this level of gear. I sometimes laugh at how absurd (and how impractically ENORMOUS) some of the high-end professional gear is.... Make it smaller, and more affordable and I'd get L glass. For now... the lenses I have and the body I have takes some damn fine photos and it weighs half as much as the high end stuff; though it still has a decent heft to it and doesn't feel nearly as "cheap" as the entry level stuff does.
I paid off half of my credit debt with my tax refund \o/ Realistically I could pay the rest off now from savings or over the course of the next few months...
But summer will FINALLY come... someday... even if the weather taunts us and is going to get COLD again here *sigh* Eventually the boat will get out, and I still have work I need done on it. I should have it looked at by a fiberglass repair place and see how much it would be to fix a few small plugged holes and cracks. It holds water and doesn't leak at all... but would be peace of mind if they were better more permanently repaired vs just patched. I got the boat for cheap, so if I have to spend a little this year to fix it up I'm willing to do that.
And the other boat I need to fix up, THEN sell it. As is... If I could find a buyer to take it as is (it works, the trailer needs to be re-done and the floorboard too; and its missing the engine cover latch) I would do it and take less for it just to get it away. But realistically... it needs to be fixed up before it sells. Probably get a new starter battery for it too. Hm.
Anyone in the market for a 14' tiller driven fishing boat? D: I have no need for a fleet anymore....
