Come on... When was the last time you saw not one, not two, much less three people using a public phone? But even as I stopped to capture that rarity, a FOURTH person picked up a phone!

The Missing Posts, vol 1: The Bee Adventure

Well, as long as I'm posting for real... I'll give you all the whole story on the bee photo I originally posted last month.

I was headed out to work one fine morning, and saw these flowers had bloomed across the street. Crossing to get a better look, I discovered this entire bush was currently being serviced by about a dozen bees! Curiously enough only one of these was a bumble bee.

Perhaps this would be a good time to mention that in all my years (I fear I'm old enough to use this phrase and not have it be ironic) I have never been stung by a bee, a wasp, or any other potentially dangerous insect. However my mother always warned she was allergic to bumble bees, and thus I've been terrified to be stung.

All that being said, I was hell-bent on getting a picture of a bee inside a flower - best of all being the jumbo-sized bumble bee. I admit it, I was rather impressed with myself for even trying to get this shot. Hence this first photo is the result of the bee flying out of the flower and in my general direction, causing me to jump back and take the picture at the same time.

On my second try, I at least got the bumble bee in the shot. Really, that's the bee up at the top. Yeah, the fat black dot just to the left of the window. Aw, come on, can't you see the wings?

And the triumph of the whole crazy bee-stalking saga (did I mention this went on for about 20 minutes?):
The Bumble Bee inside the Flower!
(No, really, it is a bee, I swear.)

Let it never be said that I'm not out there, trying to capture those interesting moments so I can bring them to you, Dear Viewer. ;^)

Some News ~ Frustrating Tho it May Be

After searching around Blogger, I've discovered that this problem is not just mine. Seems the mobile blogging features are just flat not working.

Disheartening, to say the least, as I cannot find any kind of temporary fix or end-run around the problem. No other posting, save directly at the Blogger site, seems to be working at the moment.

Oddly, in searching for a fix I find that this problem has been going on since May, and while I've had some issues, I was at least getting some posts through up until 10 days ago. I suppose this means I should consider myself lucky.

I don't really... not being able to post directly from my phone, or even via email, means adding several extra steps (upload, download, do the hokey pokey & post yourself some pics) to bringing posts to On-the-Go.

However, I shall do my best to do so in a timely manner & hopefully much more so than mobile blogging had been allowing.

I hope to have old posts updated over this weekend, and then resolve myself to be a faithful online blogger until this mobile crisis is over...

Sporadic Posting

As you may have noticed, I've been lax in my posting lately... Or so it would seem.

In fact, I've discovered that I'm experiencing a serious technical problem - chiefly that NOTHING I've been sending from my phone is making it to On-the-Go.

Needless to say, though I apparently am still going to say it, I am working on finding out just what is going on and why.

In the meantime, Dear Viewer, please continue to check in here, as I will be doing my best to manually post... until such time as a fix is found.

That's a Bumble Bee - Really

What?!?
