hugs and shrugs

Jun 28, 2013

I couldn’t be happier that Friday has F I N A L L Y arrived. It’s way past time this girl gets away from the normal routine for a short time so I’m looking at where I’d like to chill. I can’t think of anyplace I really want to go — isn’t that sad? When you’re in Vegas for a decent amount of time, you don’t really gamble all that much. It’s different if it’s only for a few days or a week. I know that after I spend way too much for a flight I’ll gamble like it’s my job. Because it’s REALLY hot there right now. Where to go, you guys?

HUGS…
  1. Loved this post by speaker, Larry Winget — My two hours inside Perryville Prison
  2. People who aren’t afraid to voice their opinions. While I may not always agree, I still love to know what other people think. I’m no fan of wishy-washy.
  3. Photojojo Newsletter — sign up and thank me later. They send a couple emails a week filled with photo tips, projects and ideas — you’ll barely notice they’re trying to sell you gear and gadgets.
SHRUGS…
  1. Businesses that only accept checks or cash. If I can take a $20k payment on my iPhone, why exactly can’t a brick and mortar business that sends out customer billings every month at least take payments by phone? Get in the right century already.
  2. Photographers that take every single photo at a tilt. Every. Single. One. When you roll through a digital portfolio and after 10 photos you feel like you’ve just watched ‘The Blair Witch’, it’s obvious your ‘artsy’ technique is overkill. No. No. No.
  3. no. no. no.

  4. People who share disturbing photos on their Facebook timeline. I “get it” that the person torturing the dog while recording himself should be strung up and stoned. But sharing that visual is so unpleasant that it makes my stomach churn.

Happy Friday — get out there and enjoy the weekend.
