King Philip of Spain sits in this royal changers, his eldest daughter, Isabella Clara Eugenia, twenty-two, sits across from him. It is late March of 1588
PHILIP
You are clear on what you are to do once in England?
ISABELLA
Sí, Papá. Once in England, I am to stay in London where Primo Alessandro has set up safe haven for me—
PHILIP
Ah, yes, your cousin…He must remain in Parma and rule there for I cannot replace him. Alessandro may come to London and stay with you, but only if he feels his throne isn't in danger of being taken while he is absent Philip makes a face. Filthy Protestants… They simply do not know what is theirs
Chapter One
I watch an old man shuffle after his wife. She walks fast through the store, as if the sale on the crochet sweater vests with the Christmas bells and reindeer will disappear. I watch the poor old man, obviously much slower than his high strung other—I bet she power walks.
'The old…'
No.
'The crouched old…'
No.
'Old' is too generic sounding by itself and 'crouched' sounds like he's some sort of ninja about to attack. No…a word that describes him, but in an endearing way—because he's endearing. Cute old man.

So my photography got me at least $200 this weekend. I entered the Monterey County Weston Scholarship on Friday and Gina Weston herself called me this evening to tell me I had won.
I'm not sure what I have won--there are prizes for 1st-3rd places and then however many honorable mentions they see fit. I'm just going to assume I got an honorable mention--I won't know until the ceremony on May 22--but it's nice to know my photography is comptent.
I feel like I'm good at what I do in the arts. It's so completely gratifying to feel competent. I feel like everything is coming together for me as I prepare to graduate and move up north in the fall.
So I'm a sold photographer.
I sold my shot "The Gap" to the VP of my school.... it was wierd. And I still have to colleckt my monies.
I have so much to put up here. I'm just so lazy. I put a bunch of recent ones up. Like four.
I'm busy. I have so much to do the next couple of weeks and with Zoot Suit opening next week I'm shot.
But I'm finally busy in the nice way. Where I feel totally in control.
I love lists.
I've just sifted through 10 folders of over 3000 pictures to find what I'll be uploading here. I figure why take the pictures if they're just going to sit in my pictures folder.
So pictures will come quick and voluminous. Even if noone looks at least I can say I tried.
