A couple of my high-school friends have recently been posting high-school photos on Facebook, which has left me awash in nostalgia.<\/p>\n
I think if you go to my photos page<\/a> on Facebook, you can see the ones that have me in them, mostly big-group shots. (But you have to be a Facebook member.) Apparently I sometimes took my glasses off for photos--I wonder why.<\/p>\n Anyway, I've been enjoying the stroll down memory lane. Even pulled out my senior-year yearbook the other day. There were a fair number of folks in high school who I had crushes on, and a fair number of others who I would have had crushes on if I'd been paying attention. But also just nice to see all these old photos of friends.<\/p>\n Makes me want to finally scan in all my old photos. I still want to get an automated photo scanner, the kind where you can put a bunch of photos in the hopper and it'll go through them all, but I kind of stalled out on the research for that project many months ago, and I definitely don't have time to look into it right now. But maybe sometime in the next couple weeks I'll try to get moving on that again.<\/p>\n (The main problem seems to be that nobody makes that kind of thing any more. I suppose I could bundle up all my photos and send them to a scanning service like ScanMyPhotos<\/a>, but I worry about the possibility of losing all my old photos in the mail. Maybe I should send all the ones that I have negatives for to that service, and get a Hammacher Schlemmer Photo to digital converter<\/a> for the irreplaceable ones. Or I could take my photos in to ScanMyPhotos in person--they're in Irvine, so next time I'm in SoCal I could stop by. Hmm. They do medium-compression JPGs (I prefer lower compression\/higher quality), but I could probably live with that.)<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A couple of my high-school friends have recently been posting high-school photos on Facebook, which has left me awash in…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11560","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-photos"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11560","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11560"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11560\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11560"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11560"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11560"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
