I think I have an issue with the English language. Not all the time but just when I’m put on the spot primarily by Zac. I could tell countless stories displaying my tendencies to not think through my answers to his questions before beginning to speak. Such a moment happened today… After months of contemplation and research I finally purchased a new digital camera for myself last week. I love my old camera but it just wasn’t cutting it with its functions and features and after playing with my friends’ Canon S3-IS I bought one. She is a beauty… 6MP, 12x optical zoom, 2gb memory cards… but I digress.

Zac was visiting my parents the week she arrived, but as soon as he got back to Flagstaff, I was gushing to him about my new camera. Explaining all the functions and features. Finally, he asked the million dollar question, “Why do you need this camera when you already have one? What do you plan on taking pictures of?” Automatically, I began to respond, but before I could give him my pre-prepared speech I could only utter, “Life”. Life a shark, Zac can sense conversational blood in the water. Pictures of life. Why do I have this feeling that this will become the new “Do I Smell Pizza”, “Ten-Minute Nap” or “This is my city, my weather, my mountain”…
