I've been very lazy about this journal thing. I've been telling myself that I need to update, I just haven't had anything to say. I have been having a very tough time, what with looking for a job and all, and feeling very very blue recently. I'm really hoping that's about to change, though as I have a potential interview this week. And I got a haircut, which I desperately needed. And that always makes me feel better.

Yesterday evening I ventured out with my camera and partners in crime to the site of the Beverly Hills Supper Club, which burned down in the 1970's. For those of you not from the Greater Cincy area who might not be familiar with this, you can read about it here: [link]
I have always found the Beverly Hills fascinating, and this is the first time I've had the chance to visit the site.
There's virtually nothing left, and we traipsed around in the woods for about an hour or so (burning daylight, I might add) before realizing that we had walked right past it. There's a trail that leads through the site (which we only partially explored 'cause it was getting dark) that is literally scattered with debris. The trail is marked by bits of orange tape, and someone has placed hand-painted signs at key sites along the trail. There is also a memorial erected at the site of greatest casualties. It's really interesting, and we plan to go back sometime during the day.
I think I got some pretty sweet shots, but I'll have to wait and see how they turn out (that's right, kiddies, I shoot with film). And right now I'm super itchy from aforementioned woods-traipsing, but so far, no poison ivy. Let's hope it stays that way. Or at least let's hope what I shot is excellent enough to be worth it.

Also. I don't know if you've seen this, but a friend showed me this clip last night, and I was completely blown away. My mouth was literally hanging open as I watched it. Check it out: [link]
(I promise I'm not going to rickroll you )
