so, i've been very productive in my dating exploits in the last few days. not only did i go on two dates with two people, shit, i did it in one day. the first one was boring, a hippie (sort of), and just not attractive to me. the second i'd already gone on another date with. he's sorta shy, pretty cute, makes me laugh (and have expressed our mutual like for eachother). but now that i've found someone i actually want to spend time with and possibly see into the future, everyone else is trying to get with me, via the internet. i havent hidden my mercury (local alt newspaper) lovelab profile, because i dont wanna burn my bridges too soon. but now that i've been asked out by two other reasonably interesting and attractive men, do i say no? or do i go out with them even though i'm already interested in someone? so far i just havent responded.

but besides my problems being too popular (which indeed are grave). i've been up to hanging around with my brother, watching a lot of movies/tv (not on tv), and sweating (it's 95 degrees outside). i also hauled my ass 5mi over to a friend of mine's co-worker's house to meet her and her pets, so i can house sit for them all while she's on vacation. she's got two dogs, a cat, and chickens (and cable, shes a lawyer, shes loaded). i did however manage to forget to say, "how much are you paying me?" so i had to send an awkward email tonight, after getting back to my home at like 10:30. hopefully she wants to pay me, because i aint doin it for free. i'd bet on about $200 for 2.5 weeks.

aidan and i are also about halfway through taking down our show. we would be farther along, but we couldn't find anything worthwhile in the gallery manager's office (because its a complete disaster in there). so tomorrow is removing screws, spackling, repainting, and scanning. so i'll have digital images soon, hopefully. i'll probably print tomorrow too, if i'm not too burned out by all of that. i should buy and ground a bunch of copper before i have to hang out at sibylle's house all the time. then i can just work on etchings all day, for two weeks. lord knows i'm not into commuting to the pearl from 56th and fremont in 90 degree weather.

its been a good week.


i just realized my camera has an option to take pictures continuously. which makes it possible to do really sweet action shots.




i love blurry photos.
