old is the new new

a little bit ago our curiously top-heavy external hard drive had a little arm wrestling match with gravity. it was the kind of arm wrestling match that ends before it begins. gravity has very toned biceps.

i thought i would be pretty upset at losing loads and loads of photos and such, but i wasn't. i am more or less wholly fine with it. what do these things matter, anyway? for here we have no lasting city. what a floating feeling it is not to be distressed when distress is expected.

now my clever dad's got me backing stuff up (hm, a novel idea). this is great fun, because i've been going through some pretty old files. looking through old pictures, i see new things. here are some photos i rediscovered.




i like my family.

You have such an eye for a good photo. And, I agree, your writing is engaging. Will you soon be published?
