Finally booking up summer. Lots of visits back to Toronto, visits to NJ/NY, a short trip to Vegas to play the roulette table like a seventy year old woman, and adult summer camp. Yaaaasssssss. Adult summer camp to hike, swim in the lake, participate in color …
I do not photograph well. It’s a disease. My eyeballs start crossing, my cheeks tighten, my lip contorts, and you can visibly see my muscles contract. If I cover half of my face or if I just don’t look at the camera, it turns out …
