I know it's been a while since I posted anything on Deviant Art, let alone wrote anything in my blog, so I figured I should put something up so I could stop staring at the last post, from 8 months ago...

I've just moved out of my apartment in Ypsilanti MI, and in a couple of weeks I'll be on my way to Austin TX to hopefully live and prosper in the limitless sunshine and never-having-to-scrape-ice-off-my-car-again. Here's hoping!

That's about all for now, I hope you all are doing well!

I never know who you're talking about. You had a lot of soul mates, I think, and usually you're talking about older ones. (but maybe not?)
le sigh.

...and now I'm catching up on all sorts of blogs and journals I forgot about, wishing people talked normally, still.

"How are you?"
"Shitty, actually, the other day...well, I wrote a huge blog about it, so you should go read that."

Come again?

There came a time, probably during the summer some time, when I stopped thinking that I was really going to be able to make money or survive based on photography. I had two jobs that were totally unrelated to photography, and when the semester started, I had no art classes, let alone photography ones.
Then last night happened.
I got a call a while ago from a girl who's part of one of those future businessmen and women of america clubs/groups at UofM...or was it EMU? I'm low on details, and at the late stage we're at...I'm embarrassed to ask. Anyway, she wanted group shots of her club, and asked me to do it. I don't know her, I know nobody in the group, nobody I know told her to ask me; she just found my info online, and called me. The shoot went awesomely, and I think I have a restored faith in the viability of photography.
I might be able to get away with it!
*sigh*
too bad I can't "get away with it" until the summer, at the earliest...well, I'll do my best to get away with it on the sly, while I work my normal job and finish school.
school.
blah.
that's all for now.
oh, you can check out the final shot from last night in my gallery, if you're curious. 25 peeps in suits = a little intimidating, but I rocked it.

so i don't have to wake up to endlessness.
blah.
