me, but with glasses

The photography message board that I post on everyday had a thread asking you to show off your glasses.  So I took this silly picture of me. :)

Two Fridays ago, the daughter of the VP of sales at my last company (the car dealership) was found face down and unconscious in their hot tub. Her dad went in the hot tub the night before and was going to put the cover back on in the morning but he ended up leaving before the sun came up so he didn’t see the hot tub in the morning and totally forgot.

She was blue, her mouth was foaming and the fire department later told her parents that they didn’t think she was going to make it.

In the hospital she would wake up with blank stares like there was no life inside of her. The doctors told her parents that she had brain damage and would never be the same if she survived at all.

I think it was two days later, she went into a deep sleep and when she woke up, she opened her eyes, looked at her dad and said, “Dadda, up!”

And now she’s fine! I went over there last week and took some pictures of her for the family (and for myself).

thank you!

I am feeling so uninspired lately with all this not having a job nonsense. I now know what my mom felt like back in the 80s and 90s when she would come home from interviews saying they told her she was overqualified. I never got that. But now that I have heard it myself, I get it. It just means, “You made too much money at your last job and we can’t pay you nearly as much.” But I say in my cover letter that I want to START with a good stable company and work my way up. This is so frustrating!

Sorry for the few and far between blogs. I’ve been trying to set up some shoots with new models but I’m not getting very far because I’m not very inspired. :(
