I Bought Myself a Present


No, not the Chia Obama. This was a present from some friends. I must admit that I find this thing to be vaguely offensive, yet strangely compelling. I guess that I've always secretly wanted a Chia pet; I just didn't expect to get one in the image of my favorite president. In any case, you can see that it is growing nicely.

My real present is an opportunity that popped up on the Wednesday before Christmas: a photo workshop in Vietnam and Cambodia with Art Wolfe. With Carol's encouragement, I decided to sign up and go. I will be leaving on January 28th and will return on Feb. 15th. I have my visas, and I'm already packed. My dedicated readers (all three of you) can be assured that I will be posting regular entries during the trip.

I still think you should bring me with you! But I guess I will have to settle for pictures
