Things and days

I’ve been getting a lot of antibiotic-related spam to this blog. The idea of people buying antibiotics without prescriptions on the Internet disturbs me more than the idea of people buying opioids. For some reason it never occurred to me that the average citizen with no medical training might decide they really need [...]

Good things on the horizon

I’ve been feeling better.
I just have this for now– a photo I came across from the archives.

Luna the Innocent, 2007
She is straight out of a religious mural, as far as I’m concerned.

Analyzing failure

Today I found myself feeling almost exactly like I remember feeling earlier this decade when I was going to college for the first time. I went to the University of Washington. I got a physics degree. I hated every minute of it. I don’t think the classes were too hard in [...]

The yellow brick road

I realized that even when the artists whose blogs I follow don’t write about their art, I still appreciate knowing what’s going on in their lives. So here:
I am heading into the last week of finals for this quarter’s Medical Assisting classes, and today was the first day in a while I got [...]

Art Walk tomorrow at the Metrix Create:Space

The sweetest new hacker space in Seattle is participating in the Blitz Capitol Hill Art walk tomorrow, Nov 12! My new photography is going to be up at the Metrix Create:Space, along with seriously cool geeky robot jewelry made by Amy Johnston.
This is a great opportunity to check out the space if you haven’t [...]

Retrospective

Earlier this month I was digging back into my unprocessed photo archives for goodies, jumping back year by year.
September 7, 2008: Little Mia having fun playing in the sand at Matt and Melissa’s wedding at Golden Gardens. This wedding was so heart-warming that I went into a depressed stupor halfway through because I couldn’t [...]

Pro-ana on flickr

I am shocked by a subculture I just found on flickr, which I should have already guessed was present, since it’s widespread on the Internet through personal websites… The pro ana people.
:(
One of my photos has a shot of the cover of the book “Thin” (Greenfield, Lauren, David B. Herzog, and Michael Strober. 2006. [...]

One year ago, two years ago…

It’s time for another game of One Year Ago, Two Years Ago…
One year ago I was not taking photos, but I was in the middle of my 365 Sketches project, and I drew this:

Bones, 2008
Two years ago we celebrated Shawna’s 30th birthday. Before Cynthia, Jen and I went over, we took silly self portraits [...]

Early warning signs of cancer

I had to write this up for some homework tonight, and thought I would share. It’s a quick little thing about early warning signs of cancer.
This isn’t a comforting list, because a lot of these symptoms also accompany chronic disease, but it’s better to be aware of them and get them checked [...]

North Palm Beach, respek

I’m putting together a photography show for a new venue (excited!) and whenever I do this, I inevitably end up finding some really funny old photos, such as this photo I took with a cameraphone in a craft store in North Palm Beach, Florida.

Richard sends mad love to the laydeeez, 2007
Richard is like, “The honies [...]
