Donate to your local rescues to help fund people who protect and rehabilitate animals from abuse. Some organizations like Champaign County Humane Society provide an outreach program that teaches little kids how to take care of dogs and cats to break the tradition of abuse. Here’s a couple I follow online or have been involved with at some point.

To add to the fun that is photography, I’ve created a blog for my photography shoots that clients can choose to use to share their images, as well as show folks what I can do! Check it out, share with your friends, and oh, please hire me! Only you can prevent bad pictures — by getting me to take your pictures. I’m looking at you, central Illinois.
Save us from the godlessness that are our public schools and the men and women who serve in the military while being open homosexuals. Save us, Rick Perry!
I think we forgot there are other religions in the United States, Mr. Perry. Does it make you feel comfortable to be around a Muslim praying, sitting on his knees while he recites his prayers? No? Don’t want him to be allowed to openly practice his faith in “our” schools? Then shut the fuck up. Christians praying bothers the shit out of me, and I don’t want the Christian religion mixed into public schools, let alone any religion, unless is it the subject matter being taught.
And not wanting gays being out in the military… why does that bother you? They signed up to possibly die to protect the country you want to lead. A country partially made up of homosexuals, heterosexuals, pansexuals, atheists, deists, protestants, catholics, satanists, wiccans, jews, agnostics, intellectuals, and idiots. All of these types of people volunteer to sign up for the United States military. They are giving their lives to save yours. You need to lay off.
Much like a Muppet wildly waving his arms, I get excited when I get to put up new pix for the site. You can check out my latest Musician gallery additions, for the Champaign bands the indie Year of the Bobcat and the metalcore By Any Means, here on the photo site. I happen to enjoy both of these bands very much. YotB was playing at one of CV Lloyde’s free shows and I was asked by the establishment to take some shots of the event, and By Any Means happened to be playing at the same show I was going to see Proximity Fuze.
While I was being introduced into the world of nasal sprays by my ENT, I started to get nose bleeds from the spray hitting the side of my nose. My ENT gave me a little bit of Bacitracin onto the spot into my nose to help heal it and protect it from the spray. WELLLLLLLL fast forward 6 months.
I’ve been sick all week, and my nose is red and raw from all the tissues I’ve been using while blowing my nose and other snot maintenance. I know that my dad uses Vaseline when he’s getting a lot of nosebleeds, but I do not care for sticking that crap into my orifices. I had the Bacitracin in my bandaid drawer so I give it a go, lightly coating the affected areas under my nose before bed and after a final good sneeze and blow.
It works! The next morning my skin didn’t feel like it was falling off, and the irritation was greatly reduced. I find that when I use it during the day (it looks weird, so I don’t have it on when I go out) I suck on a cough drop to keep me from sneezing and needing to wipe my nose, and it helps give a bit of relief to my skin while helping it heal from all that nose wiping.
Try it out!
Active ingredient:
Bacitracin Zinc 500 units (per gram) — antibiotic

mineral oil
white petrolatum
While I’m out and about, putting around on the bike, studying for the certification test, or in robot mode at work, I’ll start thinking about something that I want to post about. Subjects include my current joint issues with the impending cold weather, how I now eat less beige food due to the gluten-free diet, what I plan on doing with photo stuff, my motorcycle, where Altria is planning to get to next, etc. I even think out my paragraphs, what each will be about, and how I will go about interjecting lulz in my srs business. Then I go home to either 00J and/or fuzzy kitties and I immediately stop thinking about anything vexing.
SOMETIMES IT IS ANNOYING TBH. Does this mean I’m old now? Either that or I’m addicted to reddit.
I’d really like www.haddadinkphotography.com to launch this week. I THINK IT’S HAPPENIN.
The BJB has designed my website and we’re waiting on my graphic designer’s final logo to throw up there.
I gave my cat a haircut.
I am ever closer to finishing my personal training certification. Need a program tailored to you? I can do that.
I just got a painting commission from a musician and am thoroughly excited.
Over 1000 miles have been put on my motorcycle since I got it. I learned how to change its chain and sprockets as well as attach the gear shift and adjust the rear brake. Cuz I’m fly. Ilu Riding Illini.
PICKUPTRUCKWOOOO
The summer has mostly been about the band, the website, the photos, and the studying. All parts have taken over my life at different time periods. Today’s email exchange with my web designer is probably one of my favoritest.
This website is owned and operated by Stephanie J Haddad, me. I post about things I'm interested in sharing and do not receive endorsements for any of it. The only thing I'm interested in making money on is my art work........ please? Tyty.
