piss and vinegar

i hate when people's blog's get stale! i have a few blogs bookmarked, and i tend to check them every time i go online--sometimes twice a day--as though they will be magically updated every time i open them. this is one of the reasons i feel hesitant about blogging. the commitment, it's just too much! and now that i've worked 75 hours this week, i just haven't found the time to finish the draft of something i wanted to post. so the idea is just to give some photos. here is a shot from madison square park. again, from my reflections, shadows and textures class. as i mentioned earlier, the class fell short of addressing these subjects. but that didn't stop me from stubbornly shooting into every square inch of standing water i could find, ad naseum. here we see some kids enjoying the first warm day of spring.

and now, as i sit trying to type, sweet emre has acosted my eye with a sliced clove of garlic he insists will stunt the growth of the stye that is stubornly, painfully trying to attack my whole being. ah, turkish folk remedies....did you know that if your feet get too cold you'll be plagued by gas? me neither.

and on another totally random and mundane note. i have to say that i hate ebay. i'm trying to buy something for my niece's birthday and all of this stupid bidding is really causing me trouble! already out of pure gunslinging pride, i've bid twice what i can afford, and if 'navybluebeauty' doesn't cool it, i'm gonna pull out my pistol and take the damn thing from her! never again, i tell ya. till i need another obscure thing. like a countertop cookbook shelf like kim has....

How did the auction work out in the end? I like your photo, the ripples of water are cool!

Pretty photo. Don't you just love and hate ebay? They make you feel like you are savvy and getting a deal but really you are the idiot that is willing to pay the most. Good stuff.
