Reached a milestone today: added my 200th friend on Facebook. Two hundred is nice and round and even. I think from now on when I add a new friend I'm going to delete an existing one, to keep it at 200. So don't feel bad if I delete you, nothing personal, just need to cap it at 200.
Incidentally, I found out my 200th friend has a son. A few of my guy friends are fathers, but none of my female friends are mothers. When a guy becomes a father nothing really changes. Sure, he has more responsibilities, can't play golf every weekend, etc. But he's basically still the same. On the other hand, when a girl becomes a mother, she completely changes. She's now a woman.
That's the one thing women have over men. Men can spend their entire lives searching for meaning, asking those nagging questions with no good answers: Why am I here? What is my purpose? For women, these questions are answered when they become mothers. How incredible it must be to give birth. The thing I love about photography is that it allows me to create something that is totally and uniquely mine. Sure, I could download a better photo of the Eiffel Tower, but then it wouldn't be my Eiffel Tower. Now imagine this feeling times infinity.
Saw Beowulf the other night. It's one of those computer digitized films, think Shrek but much, much more life-like. I had to turn it off a quarter of the way in, when digital Angelia Jolie made her appearance.
It just felt really unnatural and creepy to get aroused by a computer animation. I love digital special effects, but some things, like naked chicks, should not be messed with. Speaking of sex, check this billboard out.
I really don't like the frivolous use of those exclamation points!
