This is where my new plan has paid off – sort of. A few days back I had a confluence of busy day plus being tired and woke up the next morning realizing I’d forgotten my One Pic for the previous day. There’s no way to fix that, you know? If you miss a day, then it becomes “A Picture Almost Every Day for a Year” instead of “One Pic a Day for a Year.” Not quite the same ring to it. In an attempt to keep that from happening again I’ve started a habit of taking random photos early in the morning on the way to work or whatever. That way if I forget the rest of the day or am so exhausted that I fall asleep when I get home and totally forget to do anything until past midnight, I still have a valid image for that day.

What this means is that I’ll always have an image. What this also means is that sometimes it will just be a random-looking shot of a K9 unit sitting at a stop light. Not the most exciting thing, but at least I’m not going to lose out, eh? These crappy ones will just make the good ones seem a heck of a lot better – I hope!

Don’t you wish you had this on your dash? My friend just bought a retired cop car to use as his daily driver. It has this sticker on the dash. It also has an extra dome light, a large one, that’s called the “ticket light” used for illumination when writing such things. It has all kinds of other funky stuff, like the dome light doesn’t come on when you open the door, ’cause sometimes, you know, you don’t want that to happen. We theorized about all the people who may have gotten a ride in the back seat. Creepy, weird, and pretty cool.
