• Don’t Blink…whatever you do, don’t blink

    https://www.flickr.com/photos/obnoxiousaries/13202147874/ People say it all the time. Life can change in the blink of an eye. Deep down I knew that, but usually it’s a long blink for me. This time, it was a blink. All excuses I had used to stay were taken away and I was forced to stop making excuses for myself…and…

  • Scouting for Fall

    Scouting for Fall, a photo by Random and Odd on Flickr. Yesterday I was in the place to watch an all day marathon of OWN television. It was that show Ayana Save My Life or something like that. I think I watched 3 episodes and slept through the other 2. During each of the episodes…

  • Booked.

      It’s been a good long time since I have sat down and wrote anything. Even as I write I feel guilty because I have about 10 plus blog posts I need to write for my photography page. I’ve been booked solid during the weekends for the last 9 weeks.  Once I decided to start…

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.
