"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away."

-Henry David Thoreau

Two New Blogs

I've recently made two new blogs of mine available for the public, so I thought I would share them on here.

First, is one that I started working on back in December - then had to deal all of that personal drama - and then never got around to working on any more.  Truth be told, it was a rather long and in-depth, time consuming process and I never really found the motivation to work on it.  Until this weekend.  I put in a good few hours on Saturday night, and then finished it up yesterday.  Or, at least as close as I could to be willing to make it visible.  The blog is: Where I've Been - and it's a collection of every ticket stub that I could find, from any and all events, or places I visited, going all the way back to my first hockey game in 1993.

As it states on the top of the blog, I've watched thousands of films at employee/press screenings and because of that, there's A LOT of stuff missing from this list.  But, anything I did go see, that I had a ticket for - I think I've go most of them, and now I've got them all in digital form, and on the internet where they can now live forever.

Second, is a blog that really doesn't have a start yet, but it will later this week.  It's called Chicks Wearing Chucks.  And it's kind of a social media sharing attempt-thing that I'm going to do.  I decided about a month ago that I wanted to take my love (or obsession) with girls in Converse shoes, and try to collect them in one place.  I've made numerous comments on Facebook, and even posted some pictures there commenting on my obsession.  Well, now I'm going to take it to the next level, and when I am presented with the opportunity, I'm going to ask women to pose their feet for me (photos are just going to be legs and shoes, no faces) and let me snap a picture of their Chucks.

I've decided that I am reserving my first blog posting for my friend Beth.  She lives in San Diego, but will be coming home tomorrow.  So, I am going to make her my first picture.  I've got the blog set up so that I can upload these pictures from my phone, making it a total quick picture post for the collection.  We'll see how it goes!
