summery summerness
So in my ongoing quest for new shows, I started watching the first season of The West Wing today. For anyone who is unfamiliar with Aaron Sorkin shows, the format is basically like this:
Bob: I slept with a hooker last night.
Bill: A hooker?
Bob: Yeah, a hooker.
Bill: Wow, I can't believe you slept with a hooker last night.
Jane: Who slept with a hooker?
Bill: Bob slept with a hooker.
Jane: You slept with a hooker?
Bob: Last night.
Hooker: I'm a hooker!
It goes on like this for about 40 minutes but I have a feeling I'll keep watching because it's summer and The Sopranos ended on sunday so I'm sans hourlong drama at the moment. Life can be so difficult.
In other real world news, I haven't updated my site or my gallery lately because I've been swamped with classwork. I never thought I'd say this but I think this class would be easier if we had a few more weeks of it. Columbia has never been on top of their game administratively and trying to cram a 15 week course into 8 weeks just might not have been the best idea. After tomorrow, we'll only have five weeks left and I'll still be printing proofs from the first shooting assignment. If the topic wasn't something I was so interested in, I'd probably be putting forth about half the effort but since it's photography, I'll put in the hours.
Now I know, you're all probably saying "But Dan, you've been whining and whining about getting this new camera and now you have it and you've barely shown us any pictures!" Well don't worry, in the next couple days I'll not only update the gallery but my "official site" will be chock full of pretty new pictures for all (one/none) of you to ogle.
I inexplicably got the flu late last week and it's finally clearing up now. While it was certainly painful and annoying, it DID give me an opportunity to try out my new thermos for hot tea and that thing is just plain great. I may start drinking coffee for the sole reason that it'll give me more chances to use the darn thing.....as you can see, I lead an exciting life.
