Hello! I have been shooting people with Canons since 2007. I'm a closet optimist and romantic with a dry wit and a silver tongue. I love strong coffee and dark chocolate, and enjoy a slow-paced life with my human and furry BFF's. Welcome to my little site!

3-on-3 #5: Random Round of Random

First of all, I've been thinking about how out of shape I am lately (pointed out to me by someone, ahem). It's not that fun to get winded after running just a mile and while I know there are plenty of people who can't even run a mile, I've been very athletic for most of my life, so why would I not continue it now? After doing some Googling and Yelping, I discovered that University of San Francisco (USF) has a gym near my house with a very reasonable use rate ($78 for 15 visits = $5.20/visit). I was sold on the fact that they have a swimming pool, but they also have the other pool that I LOVE available. Yep, billiards! Sold and sold! Hopefully working out at least once a week will improve my stamina. At least the walk there should - it's a bit of an uphill battle!

Second of all, in evaluating my life, I sometimes think about the things (i.e., actual material possessions) that I have. I put things like my laptop and cameras and lenses in the category of "I need them for work, but there's no emotional attachment outside of our working relationship." I care for them because I need to. But outside of those things, the only thing I have any remote emotional attachment to is - brace yourselves - my Netflix mug. No, it's not special and I'm sure I can replace it easily. Or not, even, since I have plenty of mugs and beverage containers in general. But I guess because it's been with me for years and has always been by my side through my corporate heydays at the office and it's nostalgia that makes it seem remotely more important than anything else I own. I noticed, however, that there's a crack that's formed on the mug. The end is nigh and, just as well.

And third of all, here are some movies I've seen recently on/through Netflix that I enjoyed:

The Princess and the Frog Going the Distance Beyond Borders National Geographic: Stress: Portrait of a Killer The Taking of Pelham One Two Three The Adjustment Bureau
And yep, my Netflix viewing is in direct proportion to the amount of editing I do. And of course I didn't watch The Adjustment Bureau on/through Netflix (it's still in theatre). The movie poster itself was too beautifully done to not include it in this line-up.

Have a great Tuesday, everyone!
