I gotta get a new camera...

How can I be a camera whore with such a shitty camera?? How can I take those artsy fartsy 'I'm in really deep, wistful thought' kind of pics and then mess with the color and contrast until I don't even look like myself with such a shitty camera? Well, I shouldn't be... but I am. It's shameful. And you would think since I used to work in a photo lab, I would have a decent camera. Actually, I do... and it's pretty nice, but it's 35mm... and thanks to my rejection of change and all things digital, when I finally broke down, I settled on the cheapest, and in turn, the shittiest. Yes, it's my own fault. I'll take the blame. I don't deny, I TESTIFY!!! I think I'm actually a paranoid old lady in a 24 year old body.. Seriously, I don't trust people, I reject nearly all new technologies, I don't like the holidays, I don't know what I'd do without my electric blanket, I know my dog's name, but I haven't the slightest idea how many cats I have and what their names are, and I'd bury my money in the back yard if I thought I could find it without drawing a map.. and really, if you gotta draw a map, well that just defeats the purpose doesn't it?

and I would have added 'blind as bat' to the list, but I just got contacts (and new glasses too.. the old ones had been sat on more times than I care to think about). It's really strange to be able to see now. It still doesn't register though, so it's gonna take me a while before I start acknowledging people when I pass em. So don't get pissed if I ignore ya! Cause I'm not, I just haven't realized that I can actually see you now! HA! Eh, I guess the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.. Ya know, this blog seemed to flow well in my head anyway.. but now it just seems like my usual inane ramblings... and I even left out the dream I had about being an investigator trying to thwart a plot to assasinate Bob Dylan... and how the other day, coming home from work, I eluded a cop on the city streets of Ironton while listening to the 'Oh Yeah' song from Ferris Bueller's Day Off... now that was strange.. and also pretty funny. Hmm

Another New Devildriver Video!!


Go watch it!! End Of The Line and yes, it's that time of year again... time for a roadtrip! The hotels have been booked, mix tapes (ok, cds.. whatever) are being mixed... and a good time will be had by all. as for the songs on the mix tape, I'll give you a tip.. never listen to the top gun theme song (no, not the Berlin song, the Steve Stevens thing) while you're driving down the highway. It just makes you feel oddly triumphant when you pass another car.. like you've beaten them or something. Then you get really embarrassed. Trust me on that one. And I think everyone would like to know, I'll be temporarily cleaning out the address book on my cell, so nobody has to worry about my inebriated dialings this time. Of course, I just happen to be the funniest drunk on the planet. No lie. At least I think so anyway.
