In the spirit of documenting mundanity as it happens, I hit upon an idea last night.
It arises out of a couple of problems that I’ve recognised recently.
- I snap lots of random crap with my phone that tends to stay locked up there taking up space.
- I don’t post everyday crap on this blog, resulting in blogger’s guilt.
Framed like this, with a crap surplus and a crap deficit, the solution is obvious. I should blog my mobile pics. Furthermore, I should commit myself to a quota. Five a day would seem to be about right and handily piggybacks on the well known sprout of nutritional wisdom.
I considered posting them on Flickr where they could be properly ordered in space and time but this is a tad extra work and they might be a bit crap when I’m trying to clean up my Flickr photostream. Not sure how it’ll pan out so I’m keeping it simple and making no commitments. I guess some may have a story, some may be arty and some might obviously be filler.
If you want to do some arty web2.0-style group bonding, feel free to join in. I’ll be using the 5aday tag for such posts which shall continue until such time as I grow weary of them.
So here are the five I took last night to make my quota. Today is likely to be more interesting, what with the Blogger meet and being on Eggheads and all:
- Had to look up what the hell this was called.
- Custom reg plates very popular around here.
- Hoping to get to campus without getting a flat on the third attempt.
- Smelt of babies on Oak Tree Lane opposite Sainsburys.
- Works on Harborne Park Road
