This picture felt appropriate after not posting for so long. Get it?... I am sticking my head above water again... heh heh.. ok.. it seemed funny at the time.

My computer has been broke for the past month. I just got it back last week and it still is causing problems. : ( But hopefully I can get back to posting pics. I have missed doing it. Its hard to feel like I am getting anywhere if I am not building on this little collection of mine. You might find it funny, but when I get those sudden thoughts of how fast the years are now going by and that I feel like I haven't gotten anywhere or accomplished anything... I think of all the photos I have put up here over the past few years and sigh content. It makes the artist in me feel good.

This is another shot from when we went to Sea World on my birthday. The dolphins were practicing for their show, rather enthusiastically I might add.

This weekend Ocala, Sierra (Ocala's sister) and I went to the California Science Museum to see the Body Worlds display. It was a display of actual human corpses preserved through a process known as plastination.

Its funny, people talking often seemed to relate more to artificial hip joints and aorta replacements more than the bodies themselves. I think maybe it was in part due to the level of detachment you had to have while viewing the exhibit. All in all, it was interesting, if morbid.

You weren't allowed to take pictures in the exhibit. I took this picture of the area outside the building. It reminded me of Aughra's observatory from the Dark Crystal.
