Yeah, i had another one of those lulls. Always happens. NYE and the surrounding weeks found me unable to drink without getting massive hangovers and as usual, some depression, which wasn't helped by my inability to shoot photos, so the whole thing kind of spiraled downwards so much so that I don't want to be the man with the camera anymore. This is what I feared the most when I took the programming job; by filling my head with something else, there isn't room for the photography.
Look at this hipster.
Of course, we all know that's bullshit. I'm as much a photographer as I was then, and this is just a temporary setback. I'm gonna get my chops back, by hook or by crook, and all will be well with the world. And for the record, I have taken a few good photos, just not as many as I'd like.
Before the freakin' blizzard, or maybe after. Shit conditions to be out in, though.

This was the night of Ali's birthday... sorry ali, didn't get any of you, as you were in tulsa... the following night I also didn't get any, because the light in the dfry is shit. Also, I'm not shooting as much as I used to. it ebbs and flows, just like everything else, and right now, I'm at an ebb... I've just had an idea for a new project, though, one that's been staring me in the face for months and me not even noticing. The working title is 'hackers in the heartland'... a hacker in the sense of 'maker' or 'expert'. You know who you are, expect emails soon. Anyway, on with the photos.

Mike J's. At the Sipango. And you might think, from these pictures, that it's not a bad place to hang out. You'd be wrong. I wouldn't go there again unless it's someone's birthday, and they won't see reason and come to a bar with less dudebros. The things we do for our friends. Actually, I only stayed for half an hour, everybody was already pretty well wasted by the time I got there. Although I did have dinner and some beers earlier at Mcnellies that night, I wasn't
drinking, if you know what I mean. Tuesday, you know?
