My mother was just out for a visit and she was reminiscing about the illegal-immigrant crossing signs on the way to San Diego. If you haven’t seen them before, I suggest you make the drive because they are certainly one of a kind.
Tonight I was scrolling through my pics and saw that I have a couple strange ones of my own from recent travels. I found a shot of the evil child pincher/torture device in Paris…
and one of the killer bipolar horses in Mexico.
Sometimes I think I am in the wrong profession. I wonder whose job it is to come up with these visual gems, and how I can join the industry. Who knows, maybe some day I will be drawing pictures of “no lifeguard on duty” swimming pools with shards of glass on the bottom and string rays circling the sides. At the very least, it is something to consider.
Lately I have found myself overwhelmingly caught up in the responsible decisions of life. How much could we sell our apartment for? If it sells, where should we live? Do we move back to the east coast or stay where the palm trees grow?
When this happens my head starts to spin, it gets harder to breathe and my usual fun-loving self is cast very far away.
Sometimes my hubbie and I will light candles, play Norah Jones and slow dance in our living room. As we turn in circles, my dog trails us from the side, his tail wagging the whole time. We no longer remember the waltz steps that we debut on our wedding night, but we are in synch.
I don’t know where we will end up in life, but I do know that if we get there together we will be ok. Tonight I was finally able to cast worry aside. I realized that it is not the location of the living room that will make me happy, it is the person that is twirling me around it.
After a major hiatus I have decided to keep this blog. I went through an internal debate about blogging and putting information/pics on the WWW, and then concluded that it is a growing trend (in fact, one that 12 percent of people partake in) and one that I should not abandon. Plus, it is an easy (albeit impersonal) way to keep people up-to-date on the comings and goings of my life.
On that note, am I the only one with major election fatigue? I was very much into politics back in the primary days, but wow…this one has dragged on. I will be cheering for the winner tomorrow, assuming my prediction is right, but I will also be silently thanking all that is holy for ending this election. Also, if I see one more “vote yes on Prop 8″ commercial, I may throw up. Fingers and toes are crossed that equality for all wins out and California votes no.
Anyway – family and friends that have inquired, yes, the blog is back and I will start updating more often.
