Three weeks later

 (okay picture the title as one of those sponge bob signs)

Yeah what the fuck happened to the time?

Dunno. Yet here we are. Classes started my course is a mess already, I screwed up the dates and published it and then had to take it back down and edit it and republish it. 

Taking some film. Posting on the bluesky place.

Taking black and white photos like this:

Doing the film thing (they should be posting over on the IG - which should still work as a link from here)

And mostly just being exhausted by commuting on the snow and ice this last week plus.

Just accidentally ate a whole sleeve of Trade Joe's newtons. Fuck me those were suppose to be an afternoon snack that lasted two days.

haven't had a chance to put the 12sp XT stuff on the Top Fuel. Was going to take tomorrow off but one of the Grad students I worked with a bunch is defending their PhD so, I'll stick around. Maybe go down on Saturday? Who knows.

I had an idea. A great idea and one I think, given some time and structure, could do well with that might be interesting to four or five people...  do a book on what it has been like shooting film for 12 months after taking a break for a couple decades. There's enough good photos and I think a solid progression from the first. And there's a pretty okay story going through each camera and talking about both the camera and the history of it along side the photos I took and the different black and white film stocks. And the saga of the scanner. Less of a how to and more of a this is my story. 

Would have some great photos.

But I don't even have time for important project and the really important stuff is so anxiety inducing and difficult that I keep putting it off and that's making everything worse. Not to mention I've really not slowed down much or had much of a break. It's been... how you say, tough.

It hasn't been all bad, things are going well, everything is okay but at the same time busy and not easy. Insert some oft repeated phrase about adult life being "let me just get through this week" until you die.

Sigh.

I should get in heading home. Rain's coming and I might be able to get home w/o being totally drenched. It still is in the mid30s but maybe the ice will be soft enough that I can ride on the bike path all the way home.

Amor Fati Motherfuckers
