Idjiit and tmronin are friggin' amazing. If you ever get the chance to get naked for them...DO IT. Two remarkable photographers and really platinum guys, too. Very sweet, very funny, very considerate and energetic and really really easy to get naked for...even for someone who has no idea what she is doing!



I have a new crush: jessekins is hot. Trust me. I've seen. I know. Plus, she is really adventurous and can drink mimosas at dawn...my kind of lady... I got to see a few shots from her shoot that tmronin had taken earlier in the evening. Holy hotness! Utterly distracting to have those eyes watching you strip. Not that I'm complaining...

I'm utterly exhausted and still bouncing from the excitement. I can't really say much about the shoot...because...but I can say that I feel like I have done my civic duty and I am eager, eager, eager to see the outcome. I woke up wanting to see pictures!!!

A was so excited for me. I'm so lucky. He kept telling me how proud he is of me and I know it is the way he really feels. Everyone should have someone that supports them as much as A supports me.

Maria Full of Grace is an amazing film. I know that everyone else in the world already knows that...but I've seen so few films in the last year...too busy. What a shame...

My mummy shows up on Wednesday with my two youngest siblings in tow. That will be fun. Then, Pops up on Friday night to hit the City hard for a weekend. Then...Tuesday...my amazing Alison flies in!



She is sooooooooo beautiful. I don't think that there is a more amazing gal in the whole universe. *love note to Alison*

I've had the best weekend. To top it off... Things are going to be okay between me and my roommate. That has been really weighing on me. Sometimes relationships can be so close...so intimate...that they can really hurt you when feel like you're losing them. I invited my roommate, and former best-friend, to my shoot last night. I'm glad that I did. It, along with other things, reminded me how special he is to me and that regardless of any hurt feelings that resulted from the past, his friendship is too special to lose. I'm really happy that we're working things out.

:::happy and content::: And very very tired.

Someone has asked me to move to GA when he goes. I have a lot to think about. It'll mean putting off law school for a year, but it would also mean saving a hell of a lot of money in tuition and in living costs...and, of course, being close to my soulmate. Saving the money now seems like the best bet since I'm hoping to open my own practice eventually and that alone would stack me with loans like mad...lots to think about. It would also give me a year to take photography classes, which I've always wanted to do...and a chance to maybe take some more graduate school courses...It seems like the Right Choice...but it also means leaving my favorite place in the world. Leaving my friends. Leaving the life that I've built here. It also means, if I want to get instate tuition, that I'd have to move fairly soon. Like this fall. Actually, it would mean that I would probably leave New York at the end of June...go to Brazil...then fly to NC and work there for a few months, live with my folks, save money, get a car, help out with my Nana who isn't doing well...and then move to GA. I'm feeling a bit spun around right now. I feel like, in my heart of hearts, that I should suck it up, put off law school for a year and pursue it in a way that will set me up the best to start my own practice in the future...but something doing the thing that really is *best* for you isn't the easiest plan.

But I have naked pictures on the subway. I wanna see!!!!!!!!!

In the meantime, I'm off to lunch with one of my favorite people...a photojournalist who has worked for Time magazine for many many years and who is just *too* cool. He's been everywhere and is just so curious and full of passion. I *love* people like that.
