What makes you happy?

like a science experiment, gone horribly, horribly wrong...

i think i'm kind of, test blogging.

i think i like to ramble.

i also, think i like to photograph.

i want a blog blog, i want a photo blog...

my gfm (good friend meghan) say's, "why don't you have both?"

(she latter tells me that she thinks i should just have a photo blog...)

however, i think this will be not unlike my e-mail list, in that, some people will just, look at the pictures.

i don't think i have it in me to do both right now, and to be honest, i love airless whispers, and the pretty colors, and... i can only be so creative, so, "you," the innocuous you, get both, in one.

this blog has been created on the "eve" of an embarkment on, an adventure.

i'm going to head to tahoe to snowboard with meghan for a week. then, off to san fran to see my sister... THEN, to LA to see my friend beth... after that, santa fe, to see my cousin troy.

is it worth blogging about?

only little baby jesus knows for sure.

but i want to work on a photo project along the way, and i thought the trip would be fun to try and actively blog about. i love libraries. and typing. and time limits? ok, i don't like time limits.

being that it's 2008, i still don't have a laptop.

i know. i'm supposed to be this "photographer," and i don't have a "laptop."

laps are for dogs, and cats, anyway.

so i don't know if i'll actually be able to post any photos, but i'm going to be taking portraits of people i meet and asking them, "What makes you happy?"

so, i'll see if i can be creative and post some photos and responses, but they might come later.

i'm going to work on the project for Art-a-Whirl, which will be in May. I'm also thinking that it could be cool to work something out for Burning Man.

i just got my ticket, i'm frickin' stoked.

but the burn can wait... there are things at hand...

28 hours, and the adventure begins...
