hey y'all, so the shoot went well, and the set looks awesome. i'm still hesitating on the submission though. i think i want to shoot again, because there were some little details that could be stronger. but it was super close. i'm going to talk to my photog a bit more about it, and if we don't submit it, i'll post a few teasers.

just keeping y'all up to speed. wish me luck.

sigh. i feel like the only times i work up energy to type on these things is when i feel the need to bitch. but i'm going to resist this urge right now, and take a moment to remind myself that there is a hell of a lot of good happening in my life right now.
great job, fun band, bellydance class starts up again...

Sounds like a pretty good life to me. And everyone has some shit to bitch about. But often that shit is what makes life interesting.
Good luck on eating less sugar (did you know in 1906 the average American ate a total of a cup of sugar a year. Today the average American will consume a cup of sugar in two days). And everyone knows cigs are bad for you. Smoke to get high not to die
Have a wonderful New Year's!

damn it damn it. i can link anything on myspace, but for some reason, sg constantly baffles me. meh.
ok. major bitch session coming on. prepare. firstly, NEVER date a guy from out of town, especially when you live in a small town and you take him around to all the good venues and introduce him to the best outlaw country/rockabilly/phychobilly bands. cause when you break up, you have to share custody, and damnit, they were mine first. i could do the indy rock...

my boyfriend's an indie hipster who's really into whiskey. jack daniel's, in fact. but as far as the rest of that goes... can't the hipster crowd be such a drag sometimes? i swear, they won't even dance!

It may take some time but I am sure you will be able to 'share' the hippie seen with your ex.
I think it is very nobel to do the work that you are doing. I agree I think our society does not value our elderly enough. It should be viewed as more then a business or a job. You have the right attitude.
So how was the class last week? It doesn't sound like you had too many people. But I think bellydance would be one of the more popular classes.
Good luck

I am sorry for your loss. But that person was very luck that he had you and others to care for him.
My grandmother passed away in October. It is tough now that the holidays are apon us. But it is nice that you keep her in your memory.
I hope the rest of the week brings you some peace. Take care.

The new photos are great. I'd love to see you shoot a set like that.
travhinkle:
Those are great pics.
things are much brighter in my neck of the woods these days. my holiday weekend started off hectic but ended splendidly. homey has mostly backed off, and at leaste i can sleep in my own bed and enjoy my own home again. so aside from bellydancing, i also sing in this old-timey folk/country/bluegrass band. we play our first show tomorrow night, (eeeek!). i'm excited, but...

y'all are sweet thanks, the show went awesome! our set wasn't perfect, (but i can be a bit of a perfectionist) but we had about 70 people there, and they stuck around and listened. we got a lot of compliments and people asking when we're playing again, so that was super exciting. that's about all i have to report right now, i'll write more later.
Yes, you should DEFINITELY submit. You are striking!
