Oh!!!!!
I've been up ALL night! Not even an eyelid's worth of sleep. You know that phase of sleepiness that is after the physical fatigue and just before delirious laughter at nothing? I think I'm somewhere between there. I'm hoping Spongebob will be on in time for the sleep-deprived hysteria to kick in.
I have one of those HUGE cans of monster energy because I'm trying to get my sleeping habits back where they should be, which means I'm trying to stay up all day so I'll be nice and sleepy by 11 or so..some time reasonable, because this staying up until the ass end of dawn is taking its toll on me.
My boyfriend is coming home! FRIDAY! Can't wait
I need a lovely local hopeful to do a set with. I've been wanting to for a while now, and I think it would be an awesome experience as well as nice to meet new faces. I also need a skilled new photographer..the guy who shot my last set is a cockass. I won't go into further details.
In August it will have been..4 years since Hurricane Katrina hit my home. It still feels like it just happened. The last time I visited New Orleans, it had been a year later, but it looked like the storm had hit the day before. It was awful. I'm telling you, you can look at all the pictures of the destruction that you want, but when you're there in it, it's a whole different story and emotion. Even though it has been 4 years, I don't think I'm quite over it. Maybe it has something to do with the quickness that we left the area, a day before it made landfall. Maybe lack of closure? We were so lucky in it all..I couldn't believe how many of the people were just left stranded on rooftops...elderly people, children..people who depended on medication to live, but no help came for days. I couldn't help but wonder while I was seeing all of those people stranded on the news..how many of those faces had I seen in the city? How many did I make contact with in the crowded streets during Mardi Gras? I also now can't help but wonder, if I am still effected by this..if it effected me this much, someone who didn't lose anyone, I can't even begin to imagine how those who lost relatives..there is no way they can be over this yet. I don't think anyone in this world deserves anything like that to happen to them. What a tragedy.
We're going in October for my cousin's wedding. I can't wait to show Matthew the city..even if it is still in shambles. He's never been. I can't wait to see all of my friends again either.

I'm sure that the costs of those meds are high, and probably astronomical without insurance. Such an unfortunate reason to keep you from moving away from home. Of course, I'm selfish, so us southern folk are happy to keep you around
You know that I'm willing to shoot with you any time. I'm sorry to hear that things went awry with the other photog. I've got 24 shoots scheduled this weekend, so I'll be busy for a few weeks, but once that is all finished up, feel free to put me to work.
As for the 24 shoots....I'm doing a benefit for a dog organization, and 24 people are scheduled to bring their dogs for 30 minute shoots........I saw the schedule today and those 24 people are bringing 42 dogs. Woof Woof!!!!!! It should be a lot of fun, but will certainly be a lot of work to edit two dozen sets of pics.
Take good care of yourself, and have fun making up for lost time with the boy!
