Went back upstate to my parents' place in Buffalo for the weekend, took a bunch of stuff on my phone. It's rather alarming how quickly or how obsessively I can turn out edited photos on my phone, and it's gotten a little out of hand with how much of my free time it takes up. We're in the car driving to dinner and I'm editing one photo for 45 minutes; and it's bad enough my my dad is a photographer and does the same thing. I'm thinking, at least it's great to be in the age of an all-in-one photo device, even if it's rendering our capacity for empathy and our attention to who's in front of us is shrinking by the year- Oh, wait...
Give this NYT article a read, because it's made me think a lot this past weekend, and it has proven to be rather revealing. Blogging has taken a backseat because I've become embarrassed by it and how much it makes me think about myself too much, but now I'm just starting to think about it differently.

I'm the same way with editing pictures, I could do it obsessively for hours. And I feel the same way about blogging! I'm almost ashamed to tell random people I meet that I post literal selfies of myself every day on my blog. Great read with that article. Sure does add a new perspective.
