It’s getting cold outside, which also means it’s getting cold in the house. Emmie cat has gotten snugglier, and so have I, especially in my resistance to turn on the heat until at least the end of October. I don’t think that’s going to happen. It’s also time where I realize I don’t own any long pants, but that’s a whole other thing entirely.<\/p>\n

As a result of being cold, I spent the day thinking about baking bread or bagels or cake or something, just for the brief wall of heat that results, and because there is something really satisfying about kneading dough.

Thousands of photos this camera has taken. It’s taken pictures that were published, framed, trashed, or shared. It’s taken pictures that I will cherish. \u00a0This is the camera that in my hand taking pictures of the New York city skyline as JC proposed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Farewell good buddy. You’ll make a great paperweight, because I certainly can’t bear to recycle you. At least not yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
