[Money is like gasoline during a road trip. You don’t want to run out of gas on your trip, but you’re not doing a tour of gas stations. You have to pay attention to money, but it shouldn’t be about the money.]

dogsitting...

this time, in a treehouse.  her name is maddie and she is better than the my previous charges times infinity.  true story (albeit a longish and strange one): we're from the same town.

waiting by the mail box

part of my 'inheritance' from my grandparents is a 1960's polaroid land camera, the kind that folds out like an accordian and uses the old peel-apart film. i was already chomping at the bit for it to arrive in the mail, but yesterday i found one of the new models at my favorite thrift store.  for three dollars.  so now i anxiously await the film i ordered to arrive so i can try this baby out.  in the relative cool of some morning i will embark on a photo hunt (not to be confused with the kind found at charlie's or other such establishments).

i know i've previously professed my love for poladroid, but just like a kindle will never replace a real book, making a digital image will never quite compare to holding (and blowing on) an instant photo.
