News & Updates

Inside Out

Dusting off the cobwebs and applying a new coat of paint. I’m still not happy with it, but a four month absence is three months and three weeks too long and I needed to do something, anything, to take my mind off things.

Old news, new post.

 9/365

The shot above was taken on our trip down Three-Legged Lady Road in Columbus, Mississippi. Locals claim to have seen a tractor cruising through the woods in the dead of night and a disheveled woman with three legs who runs alongside your car until you reach a set of train tracks. I saw none of these things, tracks included, but I did see a lot of standing water and graffiti. Oh, and one squirrel.

Entertaining links from the past couple of weeks:

Rain in Spain shows traces of cocaine.
The Icarus Project is an organization of 8,000 individuals living with and embracing mental illness. I love the accompanying artwork.
• Burglars flee from woman wielding a bowl of chili and a broom.
• American Idol finale reaction videos: 1, 2, 3, 4. ‘Course, nothing will ever beat last year’s.

Who am I? Why am I here?

Wow, a week goes by fast when you have no access to the outside world.

I’m updating this from the library. I expect it will be another week, possibly longer, before our internet is running again (long story). Lots of photos to come!

Sick

Three days ago, I caught a bug. It’s not enough that my allergies have been kicking my ass. Imagine throwing up, feeling the mucus still draining in your throat, then gagging on it. Rinse and repeat.

I started the 365 Project a wee bit late, but I’ve had the insatiable urge to play with my camera and this gives me an excuse. But the combination of my laziness (three photos for the month so far?) and the fever from hell may hinder my progress.

And in case I forget: Happy Chinese New Year!
