The Power of Music, Chris Cornell Style.

Chris Cornell is a stud. The dude has an amazing voice and has been consistently one of the greatest musicians of the last 20 years. I think this video of Cornell covering Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" has been seen by a lot of folks already, but I just saw it this morning and couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with happiness.

This, friends, is the power of music.

35mm and I Are Lovers.

I got a 35mm Pentax camera back in October. I'm loving it. Photography has always been a passion of mine and I always liked the idea of photos on film. I won a bid on eBay (after hundreds of tries... those buyers are LETHAL ASSASSINS!) and have been shooting ever since. Here are some of my favorites.

My grandfather. And yes, I know he looks like Santa.

One of my parents cats, Jax.

Zombie Daddy.

It's been 2 weeks since my son, Calvin, was born. No, I'm not going to shower this space with ridiculously cute photos of him (although he is super cute) or (over)share about his poop (it's frequent). He's just been a beautiful kid, you know? Yeah, he's up every hour and a half... but so what? So I lose a (lot) little sleep, what's the big deal? I didn't think there was one until I went back to work today and a buddy of mine told me I looked like a zombie. While Calvin will probably think it's pretty cool that his dad looks like a zombie in a few years, I couldn't help but wonder why I looked like he zombie. My buddy just said I had bags under my eyes. Well guess WHAT, friend?!, I have a BA-BY! That's why my eye bags look so horrid and zombie-like!

On the bright side: My coffee addiction gets to stay!!

ps: Still unpacking boxes (new apartment) and found some of my sweet Batman stuff!
