Vladimir Sirotinsky
Today’s post was a lot of fun. I have been trying to figure out how I wanted to photograph Vlad and today’s concept just came to me randomly when Vlad was moving out all of his stuff. I’ve known Vlad for 3 years and for the last 7 months have lived with him. He found a more convenient location on Capitol Hill and his last day of living here at our house was last night. I’m pretty bummed out by him moving and told him I wasn’t going to let him leave. So here is the 1st part of the symbolic explanation. This is us forcing him to stay by tying him up.
The next symbolic explanation is the Help Me sign. There is a lot to say on this subject. I’ll make it as simple as possible because it could come off as “mean.” I guess I’ll address the noise issue to start off. I guess you could say that I have a reputation for always playing loud music. Well it’s not entirely my fault, I just am a fan of high quality sound, and I own a pair of KRK RP5’s (lamens terms=loud bass) Well another small detail, is that I’m a night person and Vlad is a morning person. He is also a light sleeper and I am a heavy sleeper. So for the last 7 months, I’ve been “quiet” but it’s really difficult because of the amount of bass my monitors release. So the sign along with “other” details symbolizes Vlads frustration and hatred for lack of sleep here at our house. Not only that but his expression really shows in his “help me” state. As weird as this may seem it’s pretty normal part of our friendship… You can’t always have friends that are going agree with you on everything. I guess that’s where the term love/hate comes from. Its like 99.9% love and .1% hate, haha.
Finally in the background you see me, as a dark hooded figure. I am holding a knife and what may seem like a “creepy” horror aspect, actually is symbolic of us cutting vlad loose. I have a really good time living with Vlad over this last 7 months, and I am stoked for him to find a cool place, where he can do art, and not lose all kinds of sleep because I’m blasting metal all night.
Vlad, you are the man. I love you bromontana!
This photo is another photo stitch of multiple images. I took 9 photographs at 20 mm to capture the entire room, then chose my favorite expression, and put myself in the background.

Lesson from Dexter
Less messy with a drop cloth?
Ask again later
1 - a broken toy (I broke the hell out of it.)
2 - the last item of clothing you bought (not-so-white shirt)
3 - partially desaturated (Now: with less blue!)
Before we begin, I'd like you to know how difficult it is to actually break or disassemble a Magic 8 Ball. I watched a video, I didn't follow it exactly - to my peril - and ended up having to spend a lot more time cutting with a Dremel tool.
A Magic 8 Ball is actually a multi-part toy, with the hard, black, opaque plastic housing surrounding an internal, transparent cylinder where the icosahedral (20-sided) die floats in a mixture of blue dye and alcohol. I did not fiddle with this internal cylinder. I just made my own Magic 8 Ball "blood" out of blue dye and alcohol.
As mentioned in the haiku, I learned a lot from Dexter, and did some spatter tests of my own to get this look. I think I did a fairly good job. A large, 2 mil plastic drop sheet completely contained the mess, which I wrapped up and tossed in the trash. Done!
So you all know that I ordered the 1997 basic Ariel doll and a few weeks later and she came to me.
Well the reason I haven't uploaded her is because I haven't quite yet finished customising her.
She just needs the right outfit since the one Ariel came with I'm not a fan of.
I know for her seashell bra to use the one from simba Ariel but I'm not sure about her tail
Help me pick out a tail for Ariel.
1. simba tail
2. Disney store tail
3. Disney parks tail
Taking this photograph created a deep sense of vulnerability and fear within me. It shows more skin than I normally would ever want to show, but I think the message I want to share is more important.
I have been struggling with overcoming Anorexia. It has been very difficult to overcome because it is entwined within the matrix of my PTSD. I have failed to receive any real help with my PTSD.
This struggle with finding solutions for my PTSD has made progress dealing with my eating disorder very difficult. Every time I try to figure things out and ask for assistance I am derailed or ignored. I have been tying on my own to get better but it seems like I am only getting worse. I stopped working out because I knew it was only fueling my anorexia. I tried to consume more calories but when I get over a certain point I start to feel extremely depressed (for lack of better word) and overwhelmed. If I turn off my emotions I can force myself to consume more calories and pretend that I do not exist. But the feelings do exist and cause me emotional pain. I have not weighed myself for a month, which is quite the accomplishment. The only problem with not weighing myself is that I have no way to track my progress. Therefore I weighed myself this morning and found out I have continued to lose weight, not gain weight. Now I am further underweight for someone my height than I ever have been; this should make me happy but I am sad.
I am sad because I am not able to help myself. I feel helpless and quite hopeless about getting better. What I want is for people to understand that people like me, who suffer from multiple mental health issues, need special care. You can’t simply throw words and theories at us and hope we fix ourselves. We need professional help and (almost more importantly) we need social support from our family and friends (if we have any). Without social support healing is extremely difficult, especially if the people who you need (or want) to support you are actually doing the opposite.
I feel ashamed and sad for having Anorexia. Often people tell me to “just go eat more” or “don’t think about it” or “get over it/move on” but these statements make me feel very defeated. Statements like these are sometimes meant as encouragement, but often they are ways for people to minimize the feelings of helplessness they feel and or to make the problem go away by pretending it does not exist. But these statements are hurtful and simply add to my feelings of helplessness. I truly feel stuck, like I can’t get better. I am trying so hard but still coming up a failure.
It is not always obvious who suffers from an eating disorder. Men and women work hard to disguise or hide their eating disorders because we feel that we need them to survive. The majority of those who suffer with an eating disorder do not look emaciated and do not need to look that way in order to need help. Please don't look at someone who you think is thin-normal weight and tell them they are fine just because their bones are not sticking out or they don't look like the skeletons popular media displays (those cases are very rare).
Please help the men and women who suffer from Eating Disorders by visiting any of these websites and either learn more or donate.

As some of you might know, my wife and I are expecting our first child at Thanksgiving.
Recently my wife had a baby shower and received many great gifts (which means there's less money I'll have to spend). I mean, thanks for the presents.
Anyway, some of our neighbors couldn't make it to the baby shower and decided to hold one in our neighborhood...and it was for couples. I figured we'd get more presents for the baby, but it turns out one couple decided I needed something to prepare me for fatherhood.
The basket contains many useful items, such as:
eye mask - as if I'll be the one who gets to sleep since I'm not the one carrying the baby for 9 months
rubber gloves - major necessity for changing crappy diapers
condoms - actually a little late for these, but quite useful for when my wife decides she wants to try for another
tongs - I'll use these in conjunction with the gloves when changing the diapers. They won't be recycled to the kitchen when diaper duties are done.
sleeping pills - might have to fight my wife for these when the baby's crying all night
ear plugs - what's that? the baby's crying? I don't hear anything.
hand sanitizer - just in case the gloves rip while changing the crappy diapers
stress ball - the neighbors actually wanted to get me a breast implant
energy drink - need that for keeping up with the baby. Or maybe I'll give the baby a few swigs when my wife is home alone with him or her.
assorted cleaners and air sprays
aspirin - I already have a headache trying to put together all of the things that we received with a million parts each. Plus, apparently there was ONE night my wife didn't have a headache...or I wouldn't have received this basket.
The only thing missing from the basket was nose plugs, but since there are 4 ear plugs I can just stick 2 of those up my nose.
The only thing I need now is the baby. Bring it on!!!
Today, 1 month ago I lost him. After 19 years I still find myself looking for him when I come home.....when I leave.......when I am driving to visit relatives/cancer treatments...he was always in the car with me.
I catch myself singing his morning song before I get out of bed just as always.
Every evening I find myself calling or looking for him for our snuggle talk time about an hour or so before bed. I walk to his box to scoop litter to find his box covered and I cannot move it yet.
One month and things are getting better. I am starting to really realize he is gone and how much a part of my life he was......and I just never realized.

This is for a project I am doing to portray different things
this i think maybe my finished work on the workhouse child,or orphan
please comment and tell me what you feel from this picture Andrea
I cant get out of my head, which seems to be trapped in an empty box.
in circles my mind goes,
or should I say squares.
Such love can't be forced. It takes 19 years of joy that doesn't give it justice.
Pepe Le Pew would disagree, of course!
Tehát: vakut szeretnék venni, de picit elvesztem a kínálatban. Részben vázon használnám (D90, néha D40), meg főként másodlagos vakuként, rádiós kioldóval. Az SB600 és SB800 ugyebár vázról is vezérelhető lenne (D90 infra), viszont ezek a legdrágábbak és a jó kivilágítás miatt nem ártana (rögtön) 2 db is belőle. Sok pénz. Másik oldalon a régebbi darabok: SB28DX (vagy akár SB25), és a nagy teljesítményű SB80DX. Ezek ugye már csak korlátozottan kommunikálnának a vázzal, de jobb szeretek mindent magam beállítani. Rádiós kioldással mennének másodlagosként.Ergo nem feltétlen végzetes hiányosság...
Tényleg nem tudom mi legyen, nem akarom a gatyámat is ráfizetni.A legfőbb szempont tehát a manuális állíthatóság, és hogy a külsővakus sportfotózástól akár egy derítéses portréhoz is használató legyen...Szempont még a gyorsaság is.
Esetleg van valakinek jobb ajánlata más gyártók (Metz, Soligor, Sigma) parkjából?
Kedves hozzáértők, segítsetek! Főként akiknek vannak személyes tapasztalataik a fent említett darabokkal! :)
Köszi előre is!
Végül ha dűlőre jutottunk, vennék is az adott darabból!
Apologies for the rather uninspired photo, but I'm just really not feeling up to it at the moment. The photo represents some worries I have, medically speaking, following some blood tests I have had done and my doctor is referring me to a specialist. He (my doc) said that my issue could be anywhere on a broad spectrum from 'very minor and easy to fix' to 'a serious concern', however his hunch is that it will be towards the lesser end, which is allowing me to sleep at night, at least! The annoying thing is that I feel absolutely fine, perfectly normal... well, as normal as I ever am! Anyway, in the short term, I must try to take these damn photos earlier in the day with better light, stronger ideas and just generally all-round better photography! Oh, and ideas or pep talks would be welcomed :)
"Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him"
I simply can not bare this burden alone anymore. I try to do too much, my to do list is like a nagging pain in my brain. I need to balance my life-you can be an amazing multi-tasker and not struggle. the way I do. I am giving up this load, if you can help me carry it. I know you won't do it all for me, but I also know now I can't do it without you.
--So, I'm not pleased in the slightest with the result. I went at let Maverick out to go potty tonight and it was pouring the rain. AND I have to work tonight so I was trying to get it out of the way early. If I dream of something wonderful or if the rain lets up I promise I'll do something better. If not, I have 315 more days to try again. Dang..putting it that way...
Tomorrow's picture won't be a recovery one. It's Valentine's Day and I have to find a way to express my loathing...
**Eek! Sorry I forgot to mention the texture peeps: Brenda-Starr and pareeerica -thank you for your lovely work!

A Line-Storm Song
The line-storm clouds fly tattered and swift.
The road is forlorn all day,
Where a myriad snowy quartz stones lift,
And the hoof-prints vanish away.
The roadside flowers, too wet for the bee,
Expend their bloom in vain.
Come over the hills and far with me,
And be my love in the rain.
The birds have less to say for themselves
In the wood-world's torn despair
Than now these numberless years the elves,
Although they are no less there:
All song of the woods is crushed like some
Wild, earily shattered rose.
Come, be my love in the wet woods, come,
Where the boughs rain when it blows.
There is the gale to urge behind
And bruit our singing down,
And the shallow waters aflutter with wind
From which to gather your gown.
What matter if we go clear to the west,
And come not through dry-shod?
For wilding brooch shall wet your breast
The rain-fresh goldenrod.
Oh, never this whelming east wind swells
But it seems like the sea's return
To the ancient lands where it left the shells
Before the age of the fern;
And it seems like the time when after doubt
Our love came back amain.
Oh, come forth into the storm and rout
And be my love in the rain.
by Robert Frost.
