I'm so sorry to hear that this has happened, but what struck me when I read through your memories of your mom's life was how much of your mom you carry in you. You have her musical ability and her love for nature. You're easy to talk to, to ask advi…

The elms on our street leafed out and we had a cathedral of that new life spring green--until the city came through and hacked the trees back. I planted some herbs, lettuce, and tomatoes.

A Little Brownie Smile

I was innocently walking along Main Street in Seal Beach today when I came upon a 6 foot five, grey-haired, grown man who completely cracked me up. It was a beautiful day, and this had obviously put this tall stranger in a happy mood, because he was whistling a cheerful little song as he strolled along. I sort of doubt that he was conscious of just exactly which song he was whistling, though, because this song was so unmanly that it would make an entire stadium of beer-drinking football fans ben… Continue

Virtual emptiness

In the past two weeks, I've read two articles about denying oneself electronic media at home for self-improvement. In other words, this basically adds up to pulling the plug on the TV (whatever) and (GASP!) disconnecting oneself from the computer. As much as I think this might be good for me, I am now at the point where it is difficult for me to imagine existing for an entire week without computer access. (The articles suggest starting with a day or a weekend so as not to cause freakish withdraw… Continue

Gross Google Ads

So I wander over to my page only to be assaulted by the Google ad asking, morbidly "When will you die?" Yep. That's JUST what I want to think about. Real cheerful, Google. (Just how do they place these ads, anyway?)

Because just maybe, you have nothing better to do--Part 1

We all know how dadgum difficult it is to waste time on the internet. Just in case you're having any difficulty finding ways to fritter away your hours, I'm here to help. That's right--I'm here to provide you with links to online games, blogs, and whatever else to help you unwind. (Or to wind you up when you realize just how much time you've wasted!)

Re: Maus

I have read those graphic novels! I thought they were revolutionary. Have you read Persepolis?

Thanks! I'm glad it did well! I really liked your photo. It made me seriously want a vacation.

I think the reflections theme will be my favorite yet ... I really do like reflection shots!

Ask and you shall receive ... or something.

I went back and forth trying decide which way I liked better. Truthfully, I like the colorized version quite a lot but thought the invert had photo contest potential. It took me so long to think of something ... I actually just shot this yesterday so I'm glad I found something to submit. I really had a hard time with this theme ... it was so interesting that I wanted to shoot something just for it.
