life revisited

So, Things have been poppin onthe photography end. If you looked at my blog in the last few weeks you would think I STAY behind a camera, and I do, but I get alot of life lived around that part too. And while I love the big images, I think sometimes I need to post in my way. So when I’m talking about my life my posts will look more like - well, my posts. Rather than showcases for the images, I’ll showcase a few by  putting them in the same format that I did before with the thumbnails at the end of the post. So hover and click to see a bigger picture. **Okay that little feature isn’t working and I can’t get to my home pc for uploading to fix til tomorrow.. be a dear and test it for me during Saturday morning cartoons please? Is that okay with everyone? yes? great. Kthanks!

poetry (2 of 4)Bri is standing on her own as of this past Sunday. She was sitting with my poet friend and she just let go and Bri stood there until we started clapping and she decided to clap too and that threw off her balance.  I did go to a poetry reading last weekend. Good friend Sheba came through to grace my couch and brought a friend Georiga ME from Atlanta, who is such a personality.

We spent a fair amount of time with Miss Georgia as her plane was canceled and that resulted in an extra day and night with us. She didn’t seem to mind. I enjoyed her work, and as I work on making my way back into poetry as a hobby It was refreshing to talk to her, and I will probably mark our conversations in my reasons why I decided to come back.

I also got to meet one Mister Kevin Sandbloom. Can I just say, Oh my. That man has vocals that made me stop and turn around to find out if he was actually singing or if I was gonna find an angels or doves sitting in his stead. He was geninuely a nice guy as well which is refreshing for such a talented person. Its a flat out DAMN SHAME that man doesn’t have a record deal.

Miss Sheba did her damn thing as well. I only see her when she comes to town for poetry shows. Her visits are so few and far between. Sometimes I am disapointed that we don’t see each other outside of her gigs. But shes got a house too so I am planning to go visit her in ATL later this summer. And I’ll sleep on her SUPERSTAR FUTON, Sheba do you even HAVE a suserstar futon? Cammy, Sheba and Georgia had the most interesting visit. Cammy is a girls girl. So while they were getting ready, Cammy was hovering, totally enchanted by Sheba’s bangles and Georgia’s makeup bag, as they are DIVA’s they have all the tools to enchant a budding four year old girl.

It was refreshing to TALK to adults whose ideals I didn’t already know, who I don’t necessarily agree with, who I respect and who can take an actual discussion. (Thank you Georgia.) ANd the level of local poetry at the event was suprisingly strong. And I am looking forward to going back outside more often. Wish I could go this Friday, alas I have a photography event I must attend, so next week for sure.

Jerry’s picked up a new weekday hobby that he really enjoys, I am not going to elaborate as I am trying to force him to blog about it. He sucks worse than I do at blogging. Although he is certianly holding up his end of our e-lationship he sent me this, and I think I am totally geeking on it. I have always loved NPH, and this just makes me remember WHY I love him, and now my husband loves him, and I’m okay with that.

I will blog more in the very near future. I have alot more sessions to put up, and lots of life to catch up on.

Life is a verb -its not meant to be something that happens to you, its something you do. “Why not?” is a perfectly good life Strategy!

if you doubt….

that there is a God and he is good check out the video below
Now I’m just lettin you know this is probably the sexiest thing I’ve ever posted outside of pictures of my husband (you like how I threw that on in there right? you know I’m so fly)
This is not safe for work.. at least I don’t think it is, and I was having a less than stellar day, then I saw this when I went to B Scotts website.. and now I am much better now. and I know I said I wasn’t posting but - you can’t not share this kinda thing.. you just can’t.
If you wanna skip the intro you can click any where in the video past the half way mark and its all good…

Trust and believe…

This is So Splendiferious…

Ladies only, unless you you swing south paw then you come on over too.


The Love Before The One

To those who question my sanity, my husband has read and approved this post.
I was talking with a friend about ex’s and then another friend about trips and ex’s and yet somebody else about love and lovers, and thusly this post was born.

I count myself very lucky I have loved and been in love three times. This post is about love number two.

I met him on a Thursday. He was the only guy at the poetry reading wearing a suit. I thought that was odd. Turns out he worked for a law firm, he always came straight from work. When I remember when we met, I remember his smile. It was bright and eager. He was the brother of a friend who I thought the world of. She was not the type to do hook ups, he was not easily deterred. I made her a cheesecake for her birthday, his was the day after. That became his angle, ‘What did he have to do to get his own birthday cheesecake?’ I was young and freshly wounded. I had never really been pursued before. I was


Bald headed beauties

I have never really been afraid to shave my head. I’ve done it countless times. A good poet friend Sheba worked for upwards of five or six years with a bald head. They always spoke of strength and freedom to me. When a woman is no longer a slave to her hair and what people think of it, it is truly one of the sexiest things I have ever seen in my life.
But what if that choice is taken away from you?
GMA’s co-host Robin Roberts is my Katie Courick. Shes the person I like to see delivering my news when I can be bothered to watch news casts, which honestly isn’t often. Robin, who lost her hair undergoing breast cancer treatment, stripped off her wig on this morning’s broadcast, and vowed it’s never coming back.
I so admire her strength and courage while going thru such a personal thing in such a public way. I can see how hard it is for her to take this step, the tremmor in her voice speaks not of fear to me - but of strength. And yes it is still one of the sexiest things a woman can do - embrace this type of change and tell the world that it still doesn’t define you. Congratulations again Robin on this step. You so rock.
