Warning - Contains Ramblings

Fell asleep at two . . .
. . . woke up at five

Wonder if I'll get anything done today.


I'm tired

tired and cold

tired and cold and happy

maybe I'll crash on the couch - that might work

maybe I'll write some more - that might work too.


Here's a random thing:
I've started noticing people's eyes.
When I talk to them, listen to them, I get distracted by eyes.

Some eyes more than others.

Do women realize just how distracting they can be when they talk to you?
I don't think so.

At least I hope they don't - just imagine what would happen if they ever decided to use their powers for evil . . .

I was not expecting this to happen when I took up photography, this new mode of seeing.
Now I frame the majority of what I see. I keep track of where the sun is in relation to the people I pass. I drive home and think "spring in the morning - the fields will be green then" or "Winter at noon" I can't turn it off - I think of long exposures, and lens filters, and camera stands.

This has happened before - once after playing Battlefield for - well lets just say - a "sustained duration" I found myself looking for sniper nests, and being wary of doorways. That gut instinct only lasted a few days - this - this photography stuff has been going on for a couple of months. It won't turn off.

Would it be as much fun if I had to do it?

I don't know.

I'm going to crash

I'm tired and cold and happy

I fixed my car, was up till 1 last night working on the brakes.

New pads - new rotors

Starting to study Colossians - good book, Colossians and the Sermon on the Mount, should keep me busy over break.

Why am I rambling here?
I don't want to be the guy with the rambling blog?!?!?
I don't want to be that guy!
No more rambling!!



I'm going to crash on the couch now and not sleep for an hour.

  1. This was interesting to read =] I hope you got the much needed sleep you were after. And no, I don't believe girls realize how distracting they can be when they talk... I suppose our amazingness is just too much for us to comprehend. =] Good luck with the books you will be studying... they are both good ones to study. Merry Christmas!

  3. Sadly, I think it's only certain eyes that are distracting. The ones that one is looking for. :)

  4. Certain eyes for sure!!! But I've found lately that all eyes hold more interest than they did in months past. But as you say - there are distractions and then there are distractions :)
