I wanted to try out my new camera in different situations today, so I drove down into Dallas. I was hoping to catch some in congruent shots of snow on the familiar landmarks that are usually bathed in sun.. but most of the snow had already been cleared away from roads and walkways. Instead I got a…

Christmas Eve in Pictures
Yesterday, on Christmas Eve, I took a photo every hour, for every hour I was awake. I was hoping to capture the story of the day, and interested in seeing if the pictures would tell me anything about my day that I didn’t already know. In the end, I found out that my day is…
Travel Makeover – On The Train to Austin, Blue Eyeliner
I’m not really good at doing makeup, but I am good at doing makeup on trains and planes and roadtrips. I think I’m best with limited tools. I’m on Amtrak to Austin to see Beachhouse and The Walkmen at Stubbs. Everything I used: -A kit from Kristen Colaneri’s line that I got forever ago for…
Pictures About Cars and Driving
I really do have a thing about cars and driving. I’ve been known to make cracks about The Beach Boys writing more songs about cars than girls, but I am fully aware of the degree of which I get swept up in the mythology of a car. Its not the status symbol of a car;…
Spycam St. Patty’s – On and Around Greenville, Dallas, TX
I told you I like taking pictures of people who don’t know I’m taking their pictures.
To Do Tomorrow: Vinyl Thoughts Next Level Art Show (Video Game Mural and Vinyl Toys)

Tarragona, Spain – Part 1: the Roman City, Re-used.
(a late travel blog) Taking the train from Barcelona to Tarragona was the greatest test of my Spanish that I encountered in Spain. Or rather, buying the ticket. But no, I’ve got to take that back too. It was not taking the train or buying the ticket, it was the three hour struggle with the…
Seeing Things I’ve Seen Before – Caddo Lake
I used to describe the life of a model (under my breath, and to close friends) with the phrase “See interesting places.. with people you don’t give a shit about.” That’s harsher than I really felt I suppose, most of the time, and it doesn’t exactly apply to Caddo Lake, as the first time I…
SpyCam Barcelona, part 2
I didn’t just take a few pictures of people I don’t know. I got braver as I went. I’m pretty sure that she is pretty sure that I just took her picture.. but she’s not quite for sure. At La Sagrada Familia, it’s easy to snipe a spy shot; everyone is looking up. At La…
Rika Confesses to Almost All of It
