so summer has come for me... i'm going to be spending a lot of time with my favorite boys now that they are out of school. their mother has said she will need me to stay with them quite a bit during their vacation from learning.
that means my time alone will be drastically reduced, as will my opportunity to be online.
but, she pays me well and i enjoy those children a good deal so while my patience will be taxed, my routine turned upside down and i'll find myself in a perpetual state of exhaustion... it'll be fun
one of my favorite bands who aren't doing anything anymore...
one of their albums is in my disc player now in fact
randomly found this while looking for a new possible video for my profile
love these guys
Splender - Save It For Later (Official Music Video) - Click here for this week’s top video clips
Waymon Boone is still pretty active though... that man has an amazing voice
my cornea seems to be healing well...
i can at least see again without sensitivity to light and the feel like i've got a splinter embedded in my eyeball
wearing my glasses for a while so it can heal up properly... especially since my contact caused the abrasion to begin with... but at least life is coming back into focus once more
on a side note i've forgotten how to take photos with glasses...
earlier today i was running errands and stopped into the local camera shop for some work supplies...
well my attention was captured by a 400 mm telephoto lens by Sigma... it happened to be made for Canon cameras and also happened to be on sale for over half off.... an almost thousand dollar lens on sale for just under four hundred.....
shit yeah, i bought it.

Ooooooo....
....*jealous*
Glasses...Hmmm...I'd actually like to see that *blush* (call it a mini-fetish) ;-P~
it's really cool birra! i really wanted a 500 mm, but for that price i could NOT pass it up.. it's loverly
pixie, i'll try and get a photo for you... i have one from a while back that's slightly out of focus... i'll see if i can find it :)
i am not a leader, i do not like to be first...
i hate to see myself up front, on top
i am not a follower, i have my own opinions
sometimes i drift your way
i'm somewhere in the middle
i do what i do, think what i think....
whatever is natural
i do not think i am different than anyone else
i am not evil, but not saintly
i'm an 'every day james dean'
i do not change the color of my hair
i don't normally wear much makeup
i'm nice to most everyone
i don't particularly seek out people
but people seem to like me
i'm not beautiful
i'm frightened by my own imagination
a knock on the door freezes me
you are more talented than i am
this world means nothing to me
i live in a cage my own mind has created
the smallest things are the most fascinating
i miss the pacific, the most beautiful of oceans
you may think you are better than i am... and who am i to say otherwise
there are a few people i couldn't live with out
those few are amazing creatures
i watch
i listen
i don't talk bad about many people
people are just people
nothing worth mentioning usually
i would rather live in the past than the present
i'm too modest
i'm too sick
i'm too old for this year

Sounds like you know yourself quite well. How lucky you are.
:)
i do know myself, and i guess it's a good thing...
although getting to that point has left me socially inept
i missed the balance of knowing me while not being terrified of the rest of humanity
For the sake of my own opinion, which you could take or not; here some things that you ARE :
Creative
Beautiful
Courageous
Talented
A World Wonder ;-)
Mysterious in the best of ways
Fascinating in your own right
Extremely Kind-hearted
And one of the most enjoyable people I've EVER had the chance...no, the honor of meeting and getting to know
gosh you make me blush ;]
i don't know if i deserve all that...
thank you :)
you're quite amazing... how you know things i don't speak out loud.. i feel a kindred with you that is quite astounding
i appreciate your beauty and your sincere, honest kindness
thanks again sweetie ;]
the average penis size has greatly reduced over the last fifty years and has been the biggest factor in moral and social decay. you can no longer please your wife so she tries to find satisfaction with another man who will ultimately fail to please her as well. your job suffers as your incompetence as a man consumes you.
all the while your wife mopes around the house looking for a kitchen utensil that can do the job you so obviously cannot.
apparently if it weren't for you small dicked men, i'd be June fickin Cleaver.
and so you are taken in by natural male enhancement commercials
COMMENTS
OMG still ROFL... I so needed a good laugh today, so this now explains why kitchen utensils are now getting so much bigger lol
aw mom, I'm tired of hearing about you and dad...
*pout*
hehehe
spoons especially seem to be getting larger...
coincidence?!
no!
there should be a graph that shows kitchen utensil size compared to average penis size... the results may be surprising ;]
Thoth, we need to have a talk about what you saw mommy and daddy doing and why you can't use that spatula any more :P
I'd also like a graph that charts the size and girth of pepper mills since the Eisenhower administration -- I'm convinced they're larger & more phallic than they really need to be.
Please look into this.
perhaps we can also compare the quantity of pepper mills and the penile concerns of men in the near by areas to see if pepper mills are causing men to feel inadequate OR making women feel men are inadequate in comparison
i'm on it ;]
myst your wrong, so very wrong lmao.
and stop staring at my crotch.
hahahaha!
prove me wrong :P~
and i can't help looking, you keep making thrusting motions :P:P:P
when asked if they preferred digital or film cameras, someone i respect greatly said, in part, "in my opinion if you want to call yourself a photographer you should be able to work in both media and decide based on personal taste"
i could not agree more with that statement
i loved film photography... but i don't use film anymore... except rare occasions, if i had a personal dark room i'd probably use it more often for my artistic photos...
but for work, digital is more convenient.. i can pretty much have a few days turn around, even with any effects the client wants.
if it weren't for digital i probably wouldn't have even had a chance to do what i have done...
it's gratifying to have your work available in moments... i was lazy about getting my film developed... i always have been...
i still have rolls of undeveloped film from 6 years ago.. that's not right.
but i miss working with film, and once again i wonder if i want to turn a bathroom into a dark room...
i can't live up to my ideals
there are too many things that hold me back... things of my own design
i COULD be all that, i COULD do what i wanted, all that i wanted... i COULD be one of those people i admire, respect and are deeply envious of
i just can't let myself....
why can't the demons of my own creation let me go?
it's.... difficult.. to even explain the panic, the reservations, the frustration...
but i appreciate all you brilliant talented people that are everything i will never be
and i do not begrudge you the spot light you were MEANT to command
COMMENTS
Though it may seem a little unbelievable, I know exactly where you're coming from, Hun. Everyone has the inner demons that hold them back; whether they admit to it or not.
Talent, jus as beauty, is in the eye of the beholder, love. Personally, I think you possess a very amazing talent. Your own personal brand of charisma makes those around you smile and shine brightly; and that, is a beautiful thing!!!
*hugs*

thanks! i'll need some luck with three active boys
you're so right about kids doing things worth photographing... i've often said to them 'i wish i had had my camera with me when you did that'
maybe i'll use that telephoto lens when they are riding bikes down the street ;]
i need a recorder too... some of the things they say crack me up
i need to have some of my own i think

hahaha pix, kids are so fun... even when they exasperate and tire me out.. i'll take yours anytime :)
you're probably right to keep some form of summer school going... kids are smarties ;]
my favorite boys usually have something going on too... at least a couple of them will have some soccer or baseball camps through out the summer... so i may get some breaks hehe
