I'm pretty bored right now.

That said, I have some bad news...
If you've been following for a while you'll know I'm cheap & don't spend a lot of money. So last week my friend spent the night after we had been drinking. I also had my Canon 30D, My only DSLR, on a tripod in the same room. I left it there so I could try to get pictures of an owl that keeps showing up in my back yard in the middle of the night. I wanted to have it ready on hand so I wouldn't have to turn turn on any lights or anything & scare it away again. It was in the corner out of the way on the opposite side of the room my friend was sleeping....
So I woke up in the morning...
Not only was my camera knocked over on the ground but the camera it self was laying in a pile of poo. At first I thought my friend was so drunk that he got lost & couldn't find the bathroom so he stumbled around the room until he found a corner to pop a squat, knocking over the camera in the process. Of course he denied these allegations since he was to drunk to remember or just to ashamed. Later I figured one of my cats that is getting pretty old must have left the surprise in the corner. It was sort of small to be from a human. I still think he knocked over my camera. It can't knock it's self over, right? I know my cat wouldn't have been able to knock it over since the tripod legs were extended all the way so it had a wide center of gravity.
The  camera hasn't been working right since then. Every few pictures I take, I get a message saying "ERROR 101-..." something about not detecting a lens. It was bed enough that it has a very dirty optical censor & the shutter button only works 1/4 of the time. I NEED a new DSLR. That would be pretty sweet to use some of my lensbaby lenses with video mode on a new Canon DSLR. I'll just keep on dreaming for now. On the plus side the feces was only one the lens & attachments, not the camera itself. I was able to carefully clean it with soap & water.

It seems like I wont me taking any new pictures for a while. I can't afford a new DSLR & film is also pricey to keep buying on a regular bases, especially if you can't develop it yourself. I do have a lot of older stuff that I've never uploaded anywhere that I would still like to share. It's been so long since I've uploaded & I have so much stuff that I just hope I don't upload something I've already uploaded. I still have a ton of different projects that are 1/2 finished or on hiatus until later. Maybe I con focus on painting while my photography wile be on hold for a while. I still suck at creating titles & descriptions for my works. I think names & titles can be to limiting & objectifying sometimes anyway. I mean what kind of title is Hurdydurdydurrrr...

Besides, I don't like what deviant art have become. I think Llamas are fucking stupid.

Maybe I'll upload something tonight.

In the beginning there was nothing. Then Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked that nothing in the face, and told it to get a job.
