Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • not admitting that I like the Raiders or anything…

    The first picture is of me wearing my kicker’s jersey for my favorite team.  This was the picture that won Shaun’s heart. How could you not fall madly in love with a woman that will wear the kicker’s jersey? This picture was taken a cabitzrillion years ago when I use to have a waist line,…

  • SPF: Hold them, Squeeze them, love them!!

    Since it’s National Breast Cancer awareness month and I have done nothing but fondle my own, I figure I should do something to honor the girls.  YET, in a differen’t way…of course. 1.

  • LONGEST WEEKEND EVER…

    I took photos all weekend.  This one, This one, and this one. I’m so tired.  Each photoshoot is over 300 pictures to go through and post process. At least 2 hours of shooting time and and 2 coffees just to get me there.  The pictures that are up are only a tiny fraction of what…

  • “HA HA HA! You’re such a loser!”

    I got an email from a company wanting to use one of my pictures for a news story they were doing. It looked all offficial and I opened the page it was a REAL web page, not some freaky-deaky weird stuff going on. It’s a website that people actually read and it has to do…

Why I Started My Personal Blog

I started Random and Odd back in 2002 or so because it was all the rage and my mom and sister were perpetually online either playing games or finding recipes.
I decided that I wanted to be able to write what I was going through as a parent and keep them updated on what the girls were saying or doing. It started out just a way for me to vent, rant or laugh about life.
It turned into more when other people outside of my mom and sister started reading it and through the years it was just a place for Stuff Portrait Fridays, meeting other people blogging and making those people friends. It was a place to put down a photo I took that I was proud of and then it was a place to talk about the traveling I was doing. Now it’s just a dumping ground of bullshit that is swirling in my head.

I want to get back to writing, taking photos and traveling and doing a complete redo of R & 0 was needed to document.
Enjoy the minimalist look.
