I am trying to collect some stats through a poll on Further Confusion's LJ page.
I would really appreciate your input.

PLEASE  TAKE  THE  POLL
Its  REALLY  Fast,  I  Promise ! ! !  :)


 If you can, please also tell friends or even link it from your own LJ page.
Any help is greatly appreciated, since I need a bigger response to give me enough data to work with.

Thanks, and have a great weekend!

Photography this time. Totally old school (35mm manual camera, wet lab development, etc.)  Actual prints are 9"x9"
Inspired by the single exposure negative overlays done by Imogen Cunningham way back when...

Let me know what you think of my stuff

Current Mood: artistic

Ceramic tiles based on the oil painting I did for the 2007 NOW calendar.

Don't know what I'll do with them, (like most of my art stuff)
but they are pretty strong - about 1/4 inch thick and fired at cone 10.
Actual size is about 7"x9"  **Feedback & Comments Much Appreciated**

I have decided to start posting art in LJ. Let me know what you think.

About seven years ago, I co-founded a program which recruits volunteers in order to offer free tutoring to high school students with learning differences. More recently, I added this painting to the door of the main tutoring room.

I was just playing around, and attempting to brighten up the place on a zero budget,
but the kids seem to like it (and teenagers are a tough audience).

Disclaimer: I am not actually old, so for those of you who are older than me, don't bother getting your knickers in a twist! These are just things that make me feel older than I am.


Top Ten Reasons I Am Old Before My Time

10.  I enjoy getting home from work in time to watch Jeopardy

9.  The waiter at Chevy's said he didn't need to card me

8.  I have lots of vinyl, and NO - it's not kinky fetish wear
     Furthermore, I have no music in digital format and no i-pod or i-anything else

7.  I own (and use) a completely manual 35mm camera

6.  I say that nice things are 'great'  'awesome'  or  'neat'
     I may even use words like 'groovy'  'neat-o'  and  'keen'

5.  I frequently forget things, and repeat myself

4.  The waiter at Chevy's said he didn't need to card me

3.  I've been known to keep pencils in my hair - I'm wearing one now...

2.  In the Six Flags commercial, I'd rather be the old lady making the kitten chase a flashlight beam

and the number one reason I feel so OLD . . .

The kids at work tell me so - constantly.

This is usually preceded by "Wow" as in "Wow, you're so old!  My teenage brain can't even imagine being so totally ancient!"

Thanks kids.

6/3 Update: Then today someone asked if I was my mother's sister - and no they weren't trying to flatter her because she wasn't even in the room :(
