I wonder why people say, “Be yourself” but when you are yourself, they’re like, “Oh, no, not THAT self!” Know what I mean?

I’m a lensbaby baby!
I went to the Imaging USA Expo and was entranced by the Lensbaby booth. I liked everything they showed me. I was impressed by the ladies’ personability, professionalism, and product knowledge. They didn’t have to hard sell; they wowed me by simply by showing me the products, letting me touch and use them, and answering all my questions. Their booth had a style I found to be uncluttered and artistic. I splurged and bought "The Whole Enchilada" — the Composer, the Optic Kit, and the Accessory Kit — all for $419.95, tax included. Once I decided I what I wanted, they presented it to me in a black canvas tote bag, and when they ran my credit card, they didn’t even even require my signature. It was like shopping at Starbucks, but faster.
And, no, I don’t work for Lensbaby. I just like good retailers and wanted to praise Lensbaby with a positive review. Plus, I’m writing to share my excitement and say, "look for a whole new kind of photos from me. I got a Lensbaby, baby!" Yee-hah!

Indian School Dog Park
This morning we took Buxley & Lady to the dog park at Steele Indian School Park. We met with our friend Mark and his dog Stanley, and we enjoyed meeting other dogs and their owners.

Just another no-pants day on the train…
I got on the Valley Metro Light Rail, and little did I know it was No Pants Day!
Turns out this is the 8th annual Ride the Metro without Pants Day instigated by The Urban Prankster Network throughout the world, and we just happened to experience it for the first time here in the Valley of the Sun.

Here’s my ride!
Well, I decided to go for it and buy a 31-day pass to ride the Metro to work. I’m just going to hope the trains get less crowded. They’re fine in the morning; it’s the afternoon I worry about. But I trust that Valley Metro wants to keep its Light Rail passengers happy and run more trains.
I took this long exposure with my G1 cameraphone. I stabilized my arm on one of the posts at the station. I must say I’m happy with the light streaks and the reflections of the station in the train windows!
