it's my birthday today. i'm 29 years old and i am trying to figure out if i'm doing any better than at this point last year.
i'm not sure if it's something that should be thought of in terms of either/or, but as we do tend to complicate most things by creating two categories of yes or no, black or white, better or worse, who can say?
i have a whole slew of pluses and minuses really; it's just what happens when time rolls along. i do want to say that i feel older, wiser, better at my craft, and in the least more content. and if you were to ask, i'm not sure how i'd answer. it'd probably rely on the amount of beer i've just consimed or the people i'm hanging out with at the moment.
my heart hurts, my body is less than ideal, i have messed up TMJ afflictions, and i am really, really, really unsure of a great many things.
how depressing is that?

today is my birthday. i'm 29 years old today, and i'm doing fantastic! i have been able to support myself through my photography for the past year and a half. i'm continuously making new contacts and friends, and i feel like breakthroughs are endlessly coming into focus.
i like to cook all the time. delicious, healthy meals which are sumptuous on small levels and warm the soul. nyc is a great place to be making your visions manifest; the rewards being the sweet recognition at the end of a long arduous path of hard work and determination.
last year was super rad, and this year is just another swath of time that will reaffirm my every hope and desire. this is the year, as all new years are "the year." the year of positive change, of optimism, or strength, or wisdom, of everything you wish it to be and more.
how awesome is that?

today is my birthday. i'm 29 years old today, and it's going to be fine despite everything. i think that it lies somewhere in between, as it always does.
as it always has been.

tonight's homework:
make a checklist of immediate and attainable goals, and then go down the list and check the shit out of those tiny little boxes. we're going to do great things this year, and there's never a horrible time to begin.
