About Me

One thing about me is that I am bad at updating my myspace profile. Another thing about me is that I like to move a lot in an effort to keep things interesting. I am writing this off not as restlessness but as a necessity to use my twenties to explore as much as I can before I claim to know anything about anything. Soon I will stop though because it is starting to get tiring. I need roots, I need a community. I have been fortunate enough to travel to distant lands which makes me much luckier than your average global citizen. I enjoy capturing experience through the art of pretend photography. I am not an expert and don't know anything about fancy cameras, only very low tech ones like polaroid and Holga. Some of my new polaroids can be seen on Krista Hartman's myspace and wepage, and some other pictures can be seen on this page. La dee dah. If anyone has some 87, 88, 107, or 108 polaroid film kicking around, I definitly want to hear about it. Peace Out.Ohh yes, and I give a damn.MY UNCLES: JOHNNY, RONNIE, ED, MIKE & FRANKMY MOM AND AUNT
