i wanted to tell everyone, but then came the sad realization that so few people really cared

new credo:
live rightly at the expense of ease

now i have me very own 35mm! i fixed my parent’s old pentax ME this week. it hadn’t worked in 1.5 decades. the repair guy told my dad back in the 80’s it wasn’t plausible to fix it. HA! that’s what i say. 22 hours later and it works like new! Light meter et al. i took the whole thing apart piece by piece figured out how it worked then decided if it still worked, and then put it back together piece by piece. turns out the problem was the top shutter was jammed. i probably could have fixed it in 20 minutes had i know that. ah but the memories.

i think i’ll find another broken camera to fix...

also: i am watching ingmar bergman’s the seventh seal. if you don’t know what that means. it means that i am smarter cooler and more cultured than you. yes it does too.

so, nathan, i came to your blog to add you to my list, cause you know, that was just an oversight on my part that i thought i would correct. but then i read that whole "you'll never be smarter, cooler, or more cultured" bit and i thought, "what's the point". someone so cool and smart and culturally aware would never want to waste his time reading my lowly blog. so i'm saving you the trouble of being on my list and feeling somewhat obligated to keep up with my blog because you think i'm keeping up with yours.
you are free!
