Photo Challenge - February

The theme of this month's photo challenge coordinated by P.J. over at a 'lilhoohaa is "red". Now I was pretty busy in February what with participating in a daily writing challenge and all. I did find the time to take the lovely Mrs. Dufus out for dinner and present her with a beautiful bouquet of red roses. Lucky for me, nudge, nudge.







Click on P.J.'s link up there and see how the rest of the photog bloggers dealt with the prompt.

I'm afraid I didn't get out much this month. So damn cold here.
Katherine Murray said…
Ha ha ha nudge nudge! That means she let you have a night off taking out the trash, right? Right?? ;D
nonamedufus said…
No, I didn't have to do the dishes.

Ooh, ahh, so very pretty! I can almost smell them.
nonamedufus said…
They did the trick.

Nice roses. These things do wonders, don't they?
nonamedufus said…
Oh, they're like a secret weapon. Sometimes I buy them and it's not even Valentine's Day.
Cheryl P. said…
Very nice!! Hard to go wrong with roses.
nonamedufus said…
That's been my experience.
Paula Larew Wooters said…
You'd BETTER buy her roses... after your dalliance with Dylan. For shame!
nonamedufus said…
Hey that was fictional. The roses were real, though.

Valentine's Day passed us by without much notice...too busy enjoying vacation. I did miss the roses though - that is until the front desk at our hotel gave me one long-stemmed flower in the afternoon. The next morning, I saw red rose petals on the ground at the parking lot for the Franz Josef glacier trail, where we stopped to make the required observations to log an earthcache. They looked sad and water-trodden, but my photo didn't turn out very well, so it's in the digital trash can!

Beautiful roses and a great take on RED this month.
jo W said…
someone was lucky to received such beautiful roses!
nonamedufus said…
Lucky you. Glacier trail, eh? Cool.
nonamedufus said…
And worth every penny.
nonamedufus said…
Oh, no, I'm the lucky one. (She reads the comments.)
P.J. said…
Leave it to you dufus! There's a way to do the challenge. And a nudge, nudge ... what about the wink, wink?
nonamedufus said…
I bought them and gave them to my dear wife…and have the pictures to prove it.
Lisa said…
You just can't go wrong with red roses...unless it sparkles (nudge, nudge)! Mrs. D is a fortunate woman. :-)
nonamedufus said…
You mean like crafts with glitter?
Lisa said…
Not exactly………………;-)

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav...

30 Days of Writing - Day #1 - Cheese

Well, here we go again folks. As if it weren't enough that I knocked myself out in April participating in 30 Days of Photos, now dear Nicky and Mike over at We Work For Cheese have corralled a bunch of us suckers into a 30 Days of Writing exercise. Yeah, I know. I must have stupid written backwards on my forehead. I don't know how they figured it out. They would have had to look in my mirror to realize it. Anyhoo, the first day's theme is - surprise, surprise - cheese.  And here are the internet imbeciles Nicky and Mike managed to sucker into to this little exercise:  Well, first off there's me!
