Tag-Along


I've vowed to myself that over the next two weeks, this bag, and the camera that is usually in it, will be with me everywhere I go. Most of the time I don't carry it. I know that I'm potentially missing some big shots, but it's just so big and bulky that I'm loath to drag it around. Eventually I'll invest in something much more portable, but never mind that. We were talking about these two weeks. I will have it with me on my time off, and I will make a point to go out and actively look for things to shoot. With the exception of Sunday, it really hasn't happened yet.

Today I had the joy of spending nearly 2 hours in line, waiting to apply for unemployment benefits. What a joy! Now with all the talk of potential strikes, I'm concerned that it may have been for nothing. I'm not convinced that if we strike, and it's looking like we may, I'll still be eligible for benefits. The woman who helped me said that it was still possible, but that the decision would be made "at the state level." Guess I'll just have to wait and see. I should know by tomorrow if we're striking or not.
