Thinking Out Loud...

• Which hobby should I start back up again: belly dancing or playing the violin?

I can still do a mean shimmy but my belly rolls sucks. But I still got a good backbend but its not near 90 degree bend. Not sure if I still have my waist scarfs or my outfits. If I do the violin thing, I have to go buy one again. The last time it took me nearly a month to find the right violin. Too bad I sold my nice mahogany one a while back.

• Should I eventually buy a new Canon D20 or just stick with the Nikon I have?

If I get the Canon I can sure as hell take more assignments that have been offered to me. And if I buy a new one instead of a used/second hand/refurbished, I don't have to worry about it breaking down on me or getting stuck with a lemon. But a brand new one would set me back majorly. The Nikon is still working awesome but it limits the professional work that I can do. I still can't believe such a tiny camera can have such a high resolution setting and image clarity.

• Camping at Disney World or in Key West (John Pennekamp or Bahia Honda)?

Yes you can camp at Disney World, specifically Camp Wilderness. It is the most sterile camping enviroment I have ever seen. The campsite where you pitch the tent has NO grass. No grass at all. It is layed out with something similar to neo-rubber track. There's trees and some vegetation but according to the park attendents there is vertually no bugs. That's Disney for you. Now with the Keys, well... its The Keys. Camping near the ocean, kayaking to a coral patch and then going snorking to view them, and just having dinner near a camp fire. You can't make a camp fire at Disney. And its probably more expensive to camp at Disney.

• Hair cut or dye job?
  

If it gets cut, it would be that angular Aeon Flux thing, super short back with long sharp cuts in front. If it gets dyed, then I would have to bleach it again and then do the burgundy or cranberry red thing. The upkeep on the latter would be a killer considering how oily hair gets and how much I have to wash it. This dark hair is getting kind of bland.

• A huge party to celebrate a culmination of various events. What kind of party and where?

This I still have no clue about this. Maybe have this party in association with the trip to The Keys. Invite some friends that maybe want to go camping. I just don't know. Any suggestions anyone?


And as I sit here writing this at 2:39 am, we are watching Monster. The mister has not seen it before and he is totally enamored with it. He can't believe that THAT is Charlize Theron.
