reminders of another time

Being home (and slightly bored) for the holidays, I decided to rummage through the crap I've got laying around this place. I wouldn't have guessed I could entertain myself for an evening simply by shredding old bank statements and looking through old photos. And I'm not talking about the digital kind. Old school glossy paper prints from celluloid film! I'd forgotten all about these photos - my baby brother playing basketball with his long curly hair, the last shots of one hot ex-boyfriend, a going-away-to-Cali party for my best friend, and black and white ones from one of the best days I've ever had. I was delighted by the times I'd not thought of for years. Ironically, old school photos are not for the digital world. Instead, I give you random digitals from my computer library.

From the time I ran down the beach toward the water and stepped on a rotting fish carcass buried in the sand. At the time I was 90% certain my foot was going to rot off.

I lived in a small town in Maryland one summer and the neighbors had two plastic geese in their front yard. On rainy days they'd be wearing rain gear. On sunny days they'd sport bathing suits and sun hats. And when someone was getting married, the geese would renew their vows.
