Wasted Continuum

I am back from Houston and so glad to be home. I’ve missed my bed. Houston was incredible. I totally had a foodies vacation. 95% of what I did while I was there was eat and the food was amazing. I’ll write about the more in later posts. In the meantime, I uploaded some photos from two weekends ago when I was in San Francisco plus some missing 365 photos. I had limited access to the internet while I was in Houston. I will post photos from my trip throughout the week.

I posted more photos from the San Francisco AI Fashion Show onto my Flickr. You can view the whole set here.

I just got back from San Francisco Sunday night. I was there to support Mai at her first fashion show. It was held at the San Francisco Design Center on Saturday night. This was the first fashion I’ve been to. It was definitely a new challenge for me to photograph it. I shot over 1100 photos at the show. I blew through my 8GB and had to use my 4GB backup. I almost didn’t even bring my backup card. I shot the whole runway show with the 85mm 1.8 lens that I rented from LensProToGo. I’m loving it so far and I have it for another week and a half. I had a lot of fun and I’m definitely really proud of Mai. I know how much work she put into it and it looked amazing on the runway. I have some of the photos up on my Flickr. I will definitely put more up later.

I am once again flying out to California Thursday night. This will be my fourth time there this year. That doesn’t sound right in my head. My best friend, Mai, is showing her some of her work in a fashion show. It’s her first show and I want to be there to support her.

It should be fun. I’m renting a Canon 85mm 1.8 lens from LensProToGo. I’m really excited about that. I’m renting it for two weeks so I will be able to play with it more after I return Sunday night.

You regular readers probably know my drill when I’m out in Cali. I’ll have limited internet access when I’m there so I probably won’t blog while I’m there. I will as always twitter all the time, like I do. Those will be summarized and automatically posted here everyday at midnight. If you want live “coverage” of my trip you can follow me on twitter (JavaJunky)

I’ve only left California three days ago and this afternoon, I’m going back. Only this time, instead of San Diego, I’m going to San Francisco. San Diego was fun and interesting, but I don’t know anyone there. San Francisco has Mai, my best friend, so I’m looking forward to it. I’m going to visit her next month for her fashion show, but it’s great that I get to see her early. Also cool, I will again be setting up the Mac Mini media stations at the Moscone Center. I’ve been to San Francisco three times and I’ve never seen it. I’m going to try and refrain from doing any Steve Jobs impressions while I’m there. I’ll limit myself from saying “BOOM” to ten times. This time I am a little sad that I’ll only be there for two and a half days.

I’m all packed and ready to head out to San Francisco to ring in the new year with my best friend. As I have mentioned before, I won’t be posting anything until I get back. In fact, I don’t think I’m going to bring my laptop. It’s too bulky. If only I had an ultra-mobile laptop. I will still be twittering with my phone and maybe on my friend’s computer. My twitter daily summary posts will still show up automatically.

I’m traveling light this time. I’ll have my tiny 4 gig Nano with me. I just bought a new book to read. It’s Bone in the Throat by Anthony Bourdain. Can’t wait to read it. I already started the prologue and it’s got me sucked in. Since I’m not bringing my laptop, that means I won’t upload any photos either until I get back.

So, happy new year all!
