On my list of people to photograph resides a brilliant singer, Santigold. She is brilliant and lovely and talented in so many ways. Oh and that's right, I get to meet her next Thursday and see her perform... I'm already trying to remind myself to "be cool, be cool" for I may say some stupid thing that makes me sound creepy. I mean similar things have happened when I have been so excited!
(by the way it was well worth the few year wait for a purely magical second CD release. And hey she doesn't use auto-tune. Imagine that, a real artist!)

A Year Of Learning
'What's Wrong With Me?'
-Julia Stone
(Disclaimer: I have chosen to speak very frankly below. By doing so you may feel offended and angry. Just know I wish you peace as there is no time to truly be angry in your day at the words and thoughts I choose to share. I mean you no harm and hate, just that we are of different paths now and that is ok.)
Dear Readers of 'The Gawduner,'
When things happen in ones own life that cause a inner reflection at what they really want out of their life things begin to change. Things can change for good or even bad.
As I have said in the past 2011 became a pivotal year for me, and it was a good one in the end.
I accomplished my goal of distancing my self from the constant addiction of Facebook except in regards to the ARG IMAG Photography page which needed keep up for my business. I experienced a once thought to be a budding relationship turn to dust over night (Literally), which later turned out to be one of the biggest plays I've ever been through. (And I've been played before.) I experienced the forced loss of a job and the luck of being offered a job all because of the impact I have left on people around me. I gained a powerful recharge in my photography that has taken me light years of where I was this time last year. A charge in the way I look and practice physical health was embraced this past year, I have never looked nor felt better. I have also experienced the sifting of friends and finding those that have stayed close to me even when they live miles, city's and states away. I have also started new friendships by the common connection of simple iPhone apps and love of music. During that same time with friendships I have greatly learned that several I called friends in my own town were not such. It was more of a friendship of convenience, one in which they took and gave when they felt inclined. And if I did not do the "keeping in contact 100% of the time" it was my fault I was not part of parties or get togethers (just a heads up a phone works two ways and there are many ways to contact me other than phone.) I experienced a look at my own beliefs and religious beliefs, and just where I stand in regards to them. And I experienced a dark and deep depression.
I am not bitter for any of the things I learned and went through in 2011. I thank those who helped me in depression and despair, sometimes even making sure I was actually eating.

I take to 2012 with this new mind. Full of knowledge and ability to accomplish greater things than ever before. My blogging may pick back up and it may not. I have chosen to live my life doing what I like and enjoying my passions. This means the pull of the inter-webs to blog and Facebook my every moment, unless for photography related items, may be infrequent. But do check back from time to time. You have not heard the last of me :)

Addiction
It's a for sure sign that I may watch a bit to much of AMC's, 'The Walking Dead' and other zombie films. Why might I say this? I will explain.
Tonight upon our house plunging into darkness, and guessing the entire neighborhood followed suit the firs thought to roll into my head was...
"This is that moment when the government finally cuts the power supply and when I look out the window a 'walker' will be right outside. Seeing me he/she will try and break in my window hungry for my tasty and deliciously toned arms."
It's never dull in my head...
