Not a Communist, Just Like the Olympics.

Blessed be, a third day in a row! Maybe this post would be a good time to delve a little into my daily life. Fortunately for your beady little eyes, I've decided that this isn't a good time. (Hey, I said "maybe.") So instead I'll split this post into two halves. The first being my love for my Girlfriends photography. (and her personality too, i guess). The second being my love for Kurt Vonnegut.

Up to plate, my lovely girlfriend, Soleria.

You may hear her called Sunny at times, however. She plans on attending the Brooks Institute of Photography next year, and though I will miss her every minute she is gone, I know she will become an amazing photographer. Hell, she already is. I could go on for pages about her, but because brevity is the soul of wit I will let her pictures speak for her talent. Rather than posting every piece of her work, just click here.

Leave it to the fates to allow such a beautiful segway between two subjects. In my inbox today, Sunny sent me this picture from PostSecret:

She told me that it reminded her of me. I have to say, I agree. My mom tried to get me to read Kurt Vonnegut since I was in the 6th grade. I wish I would've read his work sooner, but I still managed to read almost his entire collection in time to truly be sorry for his death. His books, mostly science fiction, have a way about them to change the way you view things in life. I'll make this simple. When you read his books, you know what aliens must think of humans the first time they come to visit. A few quotes..

"All time is all time. It does not change. It does not lend itself to warnings or explanations. It simply is. Take it moment by moment, and you will find that we are all, as I've said before, bugs in amber."
-Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse V

"Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter could be said to remedy anything."
-Kurt Vonnegut

So it goes..
