1) I've heard the saying "
the best camera is the one that's with you" on several photography blogs, ofttimes defending the use of the iphone for serious photography. My camera is a
Canon G10, hefty enough to think twice about carrying it around with me everywhere, but still a point-and-shoot. I was lusting after some DLSR cameras recently when I realized that if I don't take my G10 with me everywhere, why would I take something that was bigger? Thinking that made me realize that I miss so many opportunities for photography all the time. Last week there was an amazing praying mantis that looked like it was doing yoga on abandoned bicycle hangle. Did I have my camera? No. After that, I've had two photo-worthy sightings right after leaving my apartment. Tromp, tromp, tromp, back up three flights of stairs, grumbling "the best camera is the one that's with you." So now I've been lugging the G10 everywhere. Wallet, cellphone, keys, notebook, pencil, novel, camera. My list of daily staples grows long.
2) I learned a new word today:
heteroscedasticity. I've been muttering it constantly even since, since it's a beast to pronounce.
3) An experiment in the kitchen: 6 links of sausage, one poblano pepper, an apple, a handful of spinach, and feta cheese tossed with whole-wheat penne. Spicy and satisfying.

I know what you mean about the camera thing! The world is full of surprises. However, once you have kids, you will have even a greater desire to lug a camera around. Somethings are priceless - its a daily thing.
and the pasta looks great! hope all is well!
