silly (but fun?) gametoday, i was going through my devwatch and i took a look at futurowoman's journal... she had been 'tagged' as part of a game and had posted a list of 6 weird habits/things/hates about yourself... the rules for the game 'require' that those tagged then tag six more people... i am/was one of her six...
this is normally the type of thing i'd ignore... however... the list is kind of fun... (much better than the usual)... and i should do it once... (like everything, try it once)... so, here's my list...
(1)... i really like to visit the sites of people who visit my work for the first time and figure out how they found me... typically, they have come in contact with someone else who has faved my work... in fact, often i can tell who that person is by looking at other work they've faved and/or people who are leaving messages on their page... the connectedness of it fascinates me... it is like tracing a family tree... i sit and try and figure out who knows who and when they knew them, etc... it is like some big puzzle...
(2)... i have no faith in my abilities as an artist... none... which is probably why i've never submitted work to a gallery... ever... i can't take myself seriously enough to ask someone (in a gallery) to look at what i do...
and that makes this really odd... (3)... i am a bit arrogant about knowing what it takes to make good art and/or knowing what is good art... and i apply a very strict aesthetic to what i do... i am very deliberate and thoughtful when i shoot... almost as if i were an exhibiting/working artist and not some guy with stacks of images taking up space in the garage... (this drives my wife crazy)...
and that leads to (4)... that seriousness makes it hard for me to relax and make images for fun... now, i am a bit better than i used to be... in fact, if you look in my scraps you'll find some frivolous/fun work that i've done in the last year or so... but, for the most part, i can't just shoot a picture for enjoyment...
(5)... i sometimes google people i meet online to see if i can find out more about them... especially if i have questions i can't/won't ask... or if i have questions they won't/can't answer... in a couple of cases, i've spent hours searching... (especially when all i have is a first name and a hometown or alma mater)...
(6)... i've never been happy about my weight... ever... i was too thin... now i'm too heavy... you'd think there was a moment in between when i was 'just right'... but, no...
(laugh)... here's a provisional (7)... that was too easy... and i could go on and on... but, i think that might be overkill...
so, now i'm supposed to 'tag' six people... hhhhhmmm... let me think... who's answers would be the most interesting?...
ok... iram, tctopcat, bridie-knight, chameleonperson, 31Z, and last -but not least- theplaidpoltergeist... 'tag'... you're it...

I've checked my computer, and apparently I filled this out on January 9 of last year, for my own fun. Stay tuned for details.

(laugh)... yeah... he's the reading rainbow guy... what a career!...
no, i haven't googled you... if i wanted to know anything about you, i would just ask... i think you'd answer just about any question... i did, however, look up your hometown... to see where it is... (i'm a bit of a map geek)...
speaking of answers, i still owe you one... i haven't forgot... it is just that it is a serious question... and i want to give a serious answer... which is a little daunting...
one thought... if too much sudafed leads to dreams of oprah's penis (which, i believe, is part of the warning on the label), then you might want to see if you can find another medication...
