Nothing exciting to report. I picked up a new lens that's got me hot and bothered (Canon 85mm 1.8). Somehow doing a free job for someone (engagement photos, etc) justified dropping cash on a new lens. I WILL NOT QUESTION THE VOICES AND WHAT THEY TELL ME!
Work .. is. I did near nothing today at work, it was kind of pathetic.
Nice thing is.. looks like the Hawaii trip that a friend was talking might happen. Free hotel, so I need to pay to fly there, and pay to eat and drink. Yeaaah, I think I can do that. Plus a bonus is, looks like it'd be with a good friend and his wife (who I'm also friends w/), then another friend from work who's a fledgling photog and been wanting me to help him learn a bit.. so that could be a good excuse to work out the cams!
Feels like an art show is looming, so I'm sorting through photographs and trying to decide. Might mix and match photos this year, some large prints, some small, some arty, some more just color studies. Wow I'm talking like a fuck head. I TAKE CAMERA, I PRESS BUTTON, I MAKE PHOTOMOGRAPH! YAY! Fucking ignore me. I'm just an asshole with a camera.
New years resolution to shoot more is barely happening, but small cam is good. It's already captured 2 or 3 great photos that I love.
Nothing past that to report. Return to your posts, collect further intelligence, report back.

But, I'm pretty much hooked on Casa Torano. Along with every one else I've had try them. Top of the line smoke and reasonable on the wallet too.
I haven't seen any updates for Edwards yet. And, I know the Macanundo bus is making it's rounds again. But, I think the closest one is in Lutz. There is however a CAO tasting at one of the Tabacco Depots in Tampa. Not sure which one. On April 11. And, the Partagas quality tour in Lakeland on the 12th.
One more that may be of interest to you. Copy and pasting it here. So, it looks like I'm into this whole typing thing. lol
