Show us your latest purchase.
I'm not positive, but there's a good chance it was one or you know, five of those movies on that shelf. LOL And possibly a photography magazine. Or two.
Show us what gets you up in the morning.
Um. I think I might just leave this one. LOL
Show us your happy place.

I can never stay unhappy at the beach for more than a few minutes. The warm sand under my feet, the cold water washing over them...the heady scent of the salty air and the overwhelming cacophony of tons of surf crashing relentlessly into the earth...all coupled with the simple vastness of it all... It always makes me feel so very small, standing at the edge of something so very big.
As children we would go often, and while my brother, sister and friends would all run straight for the water, I would always stop and stand...staring at it for a moment, taking it all in.
Then, like every other indestructible boy I would charge right in, impervious to the laws of physics and get slapped into the surf like the 65 pounds of dork I was...only to rise with a sort of mad glee, laughing at the weight of the world and do it all over again.
The beach has always been my happy place. :-)
Share a picture taken underwater.

Does this count? :-)
I always liked the way this turned out. And that I didn't drown my camera in the process.
Share a song you listened to in 6th grade.
Wow, some things never change. :D
I can't believe this was 6th grade. Not like I was impressionable back then or anything. LOL
Interesting(?) trivia:
Tipper Gore tried like hell to get this banned from the radio and TV because of the sexual themes.
Phil Hartman was the voice of Waldo.
The bikini-clad teacher/stripper was Janet Jones, the eventual Mrs. Wayne Gretzsky. I am certain I hated Wayne for this at some point in my life. :D
Show us summer.
I was looking for a couple of other older shots but I can't seem to find them. It kind of sucks, too...since they were a few of my favorites. They were part of older Flickr or stock accounts so I'm not sure where they've gone, but I'm hoping they're on my other computer at home. Why do I delete these things??
...I found them! I really hate being deletey, damnit. lol
Show us a smile.
I'm not much of a smiler...more of a smirker, really. What?! It's not like I'm up to something. Mostly.
Show us your favorite painting.
A lot of people don't find anything very special in this, and I think the small photo does it a terrible injustice, but I have always loved this. Everything about it seems perfectly in sync with its title, and when I stare at it for a little while I find it easy to lose myself in it that place, lost on that mild sunny morning before the world wakes up.
It's so perfectly still and quiet. Even the long wintery shadows seem mute. I can imagine the subtle noise behind the doors and windows of people starting their late Sunday...breakfast dishes clinking, babies starting to stir, people in their every day lives. But outside it's all still so quiet and perfect.
Show us one of your plants.
I totally liberated this plant from crackheads. What? I'm serious. Isn't it doing great? It's off the rock now and seems to finally be putting down some roots. It was shakey there for awhile, but we got through.
