today i had my first day of teaching at the museum school for the visual arts. i was pretty convinced that it wasn’t going to happen, as our equipment situation was a total mess. but it all came together, and is fully functioning.
after a mini-freakout at about 920 when i realized that i’d only bought film developer and no paper developer, and had to make a mad dash to jones it went well. the kids are awesome, and are totally into everything we’re doing.
i think that half the battle of being a teacher is having a group of students who don’t care and aren’t even willing to meet you half way. so, it’s nice that i can check that off my lists of worries.
i would really like to see you all [or some...or even just one] here. there is a lecture beforehand at 530 in the center for creative photography auditorium. you should go to that too.

this is how i feel sometimes. and especially lately.
(including the beard.)
the beauty of tucson summers is putting up with the bullshit hot and humid sucky weather during the day and basking in the glory of the evening downpours.
today was the perfect example of this.
i thought i was going to die on my ride to work this afternoon. as well as my ride home in the pouring rain. but it was once i accepted the fact that i was going to be soaked no matter what, it was an amazing experience.
there are few things better then riding home and splashing through puddles with a good friend.
i know i said this last time, but i’m going to repeat myself anyways. it’s reallyreallyreally nice to know that there are still great people living in this town that are worth investing time into. it makes me feel 100% better about spending another year here.
so thanks.
it’s comforting to know that there are still great people here that are worth investing time into.

a year is a long time. and a lot can and does change. so how is it that we find ourselves in the same places and routines? does that much ever really change?
