...incapable...

...I am incapable of taking myself seriously as a photographer of myself...

...And on a better note it is almost May 3rd! "What is May 3rd?" you ask... Why it's a Tuesday silly. Oh, and May 3rd is the long awaited day that I can own the new Fleet Foxes album for my own self. Not that I don't enjoy listening to it on Grooveshark but I think it would sound really good in my car and in my ears on a walk. Yeah...on a walk. I really dig it...

I was raised up believing
I was somehow unique
Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes
Unique in each way you can see

And now after some thinking
I'd say I'd rather be
A functioning cog in some great machinery
Serving something beyond me...

And the ending refrain...

If I had an orchard
I'd work till I'm raw
If i had an orchard
I'd work till I'm sore

And you would wait tables
And soon run the store

Gold hair in the sunlight
My light in the dawn

Makes me rethink what it's all about. Hmmm...that's a good song...

Those photos make me miss my karma necklace...I need a new one, I think. And you DO have great taste in music.
