Teeth


Watch the video
This is a short clip about the state of my mouth. I've had terrible teeth for a long time, I'm constantly experiencin sensitive/painful teeth, fillings falling out and crazy root canal emergencies. This is the primary reason that I have a desire to get into a profession where I can maybe get health benefits and some good income...

Misty Mints


Watch the video
I love misty mints. Recently they were on sale at the grocery store and I bought this huge container of them, which I left sitting under my laptop last night. This afternoon I reached in to grab one and was unpleasantly surprised...

First time in front of a camera (circa 1989)


Watch the video

Well.  I've been transfering some old VHS tapes that my mom sent me to deal with.  Here's the first of many little gems that I've discovered. 

This is most likely my first time in front of a video camera and near the end there's also my first time behind one.  I'd like to point out that my shooting abilities have drastically improved in the past 16 years.

 
It's incredibly horrendous for me to see myself at that point in my life.  My voice is high and annoys me, and I'm wearing that k.d. lang shirt which i loved but got me harassed at school by all the girls who were quick to point out that she was gay.

 
Being a teenager wasn't pretty and this footage isn't pretty to me either but I'm starting to feel like I have gotten enough distance between me and that time period to appreciate some aspects that weren't visible to me then.  I like how this video captures my mom and I together having fun, laughing and sharing time.  Also, the short elderly lady in the footage is the owner of the video camera - and the author of most of the footage I'm currently transfering - she's passed on now but as I watch her footage I see little signs of her creativity and attempts to do more than just document. 

There's more where this came from, please bear with me while I dissect my past in little vlog posts.

A friend just sent me this link and after all my ranting and raving about the "Gay cowboy movie" I just had to repost....
