Where the River Runs Dry

My way of venting out my exhaustions, confusions, excitements, and aggrevations in my world & those in and around it.

Today is GREAT!!! – Busy Busy Busy

I woke up this morning – a bit late because I just didn’t feel like getting out of bed cause my tooth hurt a bit, but once I did get out of the bed I checked my email and there was an email from someone who wants to purchase a few of my prints. I was so excited and a bit in shock. I couldn’t believe it. I mean I posted my photographs up for sale but never actually thought I would get any inquires for a purchase.

I think today I’m going to work on my website and try to print out some photographs and have them matted and framed and put them up for sale. I just got another contract – wee!!! I’m so happy and it’s pretty good money as well. I can’t wait! Finally the money is coming in – (hope I didn’t speak too soon)!

It’s time to start saving up for my next vehicle. All of mine have been sold or I have gotten rid of them. Now it’s time to start saving up!

I guess it’s time to get down to business! I’ll update more of this entry later.

Saturday & It’s Raining!

Well, it’s finally Saturday and it’s raining outside. Seems to be the overflow of Hurricane Hanna, but I don’t mind it. We need the rain. Today, there’s really not much planned, just the norm. I will search the internet high and low for an online writing gig – find a few, apply for them and then move onto my photography portfolio. Yesterday I stayed in my office all day. Today however I think I may sit in my Saturday workstation. I usually sit in the living room, but lately I’ve kinda tried to keep my living room for living and my office for working, not that much work really gets done in there anyway. So maybe out here in the living room today (yeah right) some stuff will get done.

Well, even if nothing gets done today, it’s the weekend. No harm done, right! Today, I may just search photography guidelines for magazines. Every magazine has photographs in it, although many magazines have their own personal photographers, I may be able to sneak in there somehow with a photograph or two.

Okay – Today’s plans:

1. Laundry
2. Update Photography Portfolio
3. Clean out the Fridge
4. Update Netflix
5. Search Craigslist for writing jobs
6. Twitter – enough said
7. Update Facebook

This entry will be continued!

Just thinking about some stuff

I’m just sitting here thinking about all the things I’ve always wanted to do and be. For one, I’ve always, since I was a child, be a writer and a photographer. I’m always taking pictures and I have written many, many poems and stories. I remember when I was eight years old, my mom gave me an old Kodak camera. I carried that thing everywhere I went, snapping pictures of everyone and everything. The photographing faded out through the years and I turned to writing. I was never really allowed to have any friends over, so I spent most of my time when I wasn’t in school; locked in my room writing stories and poetry. I still write, but my brain has pretty much put itself on hold. For how long, I don’t know. The photography bit has kicked right back in, as you can probably tell. LOL.

Today I tried to take a test at work and my brain is everywhere but where it’s supposed to be. It’s like I have a billion thoughts and memories flooding in all at once and it’s 24/7. I feel like I’m going crazy. What the hell is wrong with me? Well, enough senseless rambling for now. I’ll write more later.
