I haven’t really been out taking photos much lately. I’m not sure why really. I’ve been travelling a fair amount lately, but I’ve been busy and just haven’t had the urge to take the camera out and snap photos. A few weeks ago I did go down to New York though…

Speaking of photos, a lot of people steal my photos. Normally this doesn’t bug me too much, so long as they’re not promoting a particular viewpoint (as is often the case with my abortion protester photo from the DNC). Just so long as it’s all in good fun.

Perhaps my most popular photos are the creepy bench photos from GUADEC in Norway a couple years back. (The other one.) They are particularly popular among teenage goth girls on Myspace. It’s getting to the point now where an alarmingly large amount of traffic to my site is from Myspace for these photos. I counted 24 different profiles linking to my photos in the last 3 days. It might be time to redirect it to some goatse or tubgirl images to cut it down.

Thanksgiving was very nice. Got to see my grandparents and most of my mom’s family, who I don’t see nearly enough. I probably hadn’t seen some of my cousins in 7 or 8 years, and they are much taller than I remember them. I, on the other hand, think that I’ve already started shrinking. I need to drink more milk.
