i need a bit of a kick in the ass.
not necessarily because i need to 'get things done,' but more because i want to accomplish more of the things that don't need to be done, because i don't want to lose sight of those things that make me, me.
photography, writing, creating, etc. i'm not lost. i just need a jump start.
i haven't picked up a camera with purposeful intent in...well, longer than i can remember (drunken self-portraits not included). and that displeases me. i am a good photographer, i enjoy the camera, and i'd like to be doing more with that.
i used to journal all the time. now, thanks to technological convenience, i am able to write almost as fast as i can think, so i haven't kept a journal but instead subject my friends to sappy/emotionally charged/incoherent emails (and soon possibly this blog). i mean, i have a journal right now that is 2.5 years old. i used to fill up a journal in at least third of that time!
the namesake of this blog refers to the index cards sitting on the wall above my desk. many of you have seen them, commented, etc. they are my to-do lists, wish-lists, think-lists. i rewrite them from time to time even when it's not necessary just to remind me what it is that i want to do and achieve, and to add new things to the lists.
so i don't know what i hope to achieve directly from this blog, but i think it's going to turn into a more detailed, electronic version of those index cards on the wall (recipes, musings, wanderings, photos, etc.). so you can read it or not, but i'd like to think you'd read it from time to time, and give me some additional kicks in the ass as needed.
thank you.
