Work: A Photo Tour

my desk

Welcome to my desk.

You might be wondering if I’ve spread a bunch of crap across my desk to make this picture look a little more interesting, but you can just relax. It’s usually this disorganized and scattered. Or at least it usually looks that way. It’s actually a great system.

Wait, What?

A few things. What is wrong? Nothing, but I’m going to do something a little better than I have been. I bet if I were to look back through my blog, my journals, my photos, etc. there is a real pattern of waxing and waning. Offhand, I would guess there are probably four month long cycles in which I am more connected to friends and family, where I take more photos, and where I try to be more active in designing, writing, and possibly playing music. And then the opposite.

What that means is really up to interpretation, but I don’t think it adds up to something good. But hell if I can find any sort of quality information on it while looking on the trusty internet. Go ahead, search Google for “cycles of relationships in life”, all you’re going to come up with is a bunch of bullshit new age astrology laden claptrap that deserves a week-long seminar at some spa in Phoenix, Arizona. Well, that and this research on the evolution of cooperative interorganizational relationships, but I generally don’t think of friendships as business agreements.

What am I even talking about? I don’t know. I haven’t really added much to this website in a long time and it seems like most of what I’ve posted for a while is passive content that I had no actual thought behind it. I took so many of those photos without thinking about them, and it’s obvious in my writing that I was just going through the motions. I’d rather not do that.

What are my friends even doing these days? I honestly don’t even know.

I should clarify that nothing is really wrong. I live in my head too much, and I haven’t really been able to run lately. Running is my usual outlet for all of this mental noise.  I really sound crazy right now, great.

Sick

I now know what food poisoning is like. Thursday night was horrible and yesterday was pretty bad as well. I’m feeling a lot better today. That was a disgustingly bad experience. Hopefully I’ll feel 100% tomorrow so I can get my long run in for the week.

12 Mile

I don’t know why I like these so much. Maybe it’s the texture. I have Friday off, so today is my Friday this week. I am running 12 miles this morning. Hopefully it’s not too cold out.

Hi

I spent some time taking photos with my mom over the weekend. I took a lot of photos like this. I’ve always liked taking these. I have no idea why.

I’m currently planning out a marathon training program.
