Striking While the Iron is Hot

"It is said that Tokunaga Kichizaemon repeatedly complained, 'I've grown so old that now, even if there were to be a battle, I wouldn't be able to do anything. Still, I would like to die by galloping into the midst of the enemy and being struck down and killed. It would be a shame to do nothing more than to die in one's bed."
From Hagakure

I have been working quite a bit lately with pictures, and have even written a couple of entries about people I have known in the past.

Perhaps it is because I have decreased my running the past 7 days, and my energy needs to find a way to be spent. I have tried giving it to Carolyn at the FRB, but I still have too much.

Oh well, Rachel leaves for Hawaii in a couple of weeks, and she is taking her camera - I won't be able to make pictures while she is gone :(

I guess I should buy my own digital camera, but I am trying to save money for Italy and also running expenses.

Working part time is great, but I am going to have to increase my hours or I will be broke by the end of the year....

Made portraits of Maggie and Mika this week :
